I want to give back something to the wonderful and incredibly knowledgeable community of fisher-people here, and maybe help JohnR out defraying some of the costs of maintaining this site.

Just in time for the holidays!

Please read carefully before bidding!

1) This auction is open to CURRENT S-B MEMBERS in good standing.

Dear Mr. Moderator,

Let's just say I hit a good scratch ticket today and was wondering when I should bid on this great package. When again does it end and what will the process be right at the end. I am anticipating a few persons bidding down to the last minute.

:cool:

I think it ends the 17th at 3am in the morning;)

(actually 15th at 5:00pm if I recall...the rules are on the first post)

Yea, it would su$k to lose it in the last 3 secs to a dsl :smash: by a buck :bsod:

Oh yea $486.00

WOW!

Oh man - just what Basic needs - more tackle :smash:

487.

Patrick - details & pics are in the first two posts...

Swede - I think the last bid that still has 5:00 on that post bid will be the winner. And so we stay "Loosely Consistent Time" (one of my favorite geekages), real 5:00 doesn't count but the 5:00 on the boards! :D

488

now I get it

John/WeeWee, you may want to consider upping the minimum bid, to say $10, it may eliminate a mad but painfully slow dash at the end, dollar by dollar. It looks like you have a couple of serious bidders, we can see how serious they really are :D

c'mon guys - let's get this over $500. it's for the website !!

$492.

493

494 :bounce: :wavey:

$499.00 I'll give 500.00 to BEETLE!! :D

John you might just get about 4 years out of this Acution!! :happy:

What does it cost to run this site for a year?

John you might just get about 4 years out of this Acution!! Maybe 4-6 months ... I cringe at the though of 4 years from now (unless I hit Powerball)

Originally posted by Mr. Sandman
What does it cost to run this site for a year?

Probably not a public number so I can PM you a more specific $ (and if people are seriously interested they can ask too). For general sake, last year was more than $1500 and less than 3K in actual costs... Not taking into any account any labor. I've offset some of the costs with advertising & site sponsorship (I'm really cheap and I'm sure I could get more :wall: :hihi: ), these fundraisers are huge (the S-B Too Friekin' Cold Nite last year paid the lion's share of 03's bills). Some other web work I've done over the years paid the costs too. At first I ran this thing almost entirely out of pocket. So in addition to paying the bills out of my pocket in the old days, I did some more sites with the proceeds supporting this site.

Because of last year's fundraisers I did not need to put any of "my" money into running the site and that's good seeing that I've been laid off since May :( ... Yes, I would like to make some money on the site to help pay for my fishing but I don't want to run it as something that needs to pay my mortgage and put food on the table. I don't want an online tackle shop as I think the business model is not for me. I have something in mind - NOT ONLINE TACKLE - that in a couple years could be somewhat complimentary but not selling bait or tackle or rods or stuff. We have some pretty good sponsors and we'll probably sign a few more down the road ( I don't want to saturate these boards or any particular area with sponsors - and we only get the good ones). I have no need or want to compete head to head with the people you see now. I don't want to do a "pay site" like some have mentioned. I think that really limits the openess of a site.

IMO, this site kicks ass for a lot of reasons; we have pretty cool & knowledgable members, we have energenic new members and people new to the sport, people contribute plugs & prizes to our free tourneys, people don't cheat in the tourneys :btu: , people bring food and a good time when we have our little get-togethers, people meet from the site and become friends, I know I've met a ton of great people I never would have met otherwise and learned stuff that I might have learned later or never at all. Everyone pitches in so much in many different ways that it defines a "community". Some sites have tackle shops or popup adds, some places are magazine places, and a few, like S-B and I'll pick on FFSW for a moment :p , keep the lights on with fundraisers & sponsorships and the like. Where the members often contribute in some way to support this site, I think that's one of the key reasons this site is as open as it is...

Sorry for falling a little off topic and spilling at the mouth :) ... Getting back to the topic at hand, if we continue to grow at a reasonable rate, these costs will still go up a bit too. I don't think we need to grow REAL fast or hard or that we even want to. And no deisre to be the biggest or even among the biggest. The only "advertising" S-B actually does is a booth at the MSBA show every spring. No adds in the maggies or online. Ooops, more spillage, OK - I'll shut up now :laughs:

man someone tie his tongue ! he runneth over at the mouth .
hurry up give him 10 dollars and he will go away .

"Maybe 4-6 months ... I cringe at the though of 4 years from now (unless I hit Powerball)
"

I have met 2 people so far who have won the 1 million MA scratch ticket...it ain't a ton but after tax it is about 35K per year for 20 years....that would keep my tanks full :D

526

4:00pm right? I won! woooohoooo!:happy: :happy: :happy:
you can all stop bidding now...;)

Off topic, but inspired by John R's posting....... if there are any S-B events scheduled for this winter, I play in jazz quartet, we get pretty good $ for playing all types of events but I can talk the other guys into volunteering for an S-B event. I'm not sure if this is a jazz crowd, but we provide good background music to dinner, etc. I would love an opportunity to kick something back to this site. (this auction is out of my leauge)
just to keep in mind for the future....
here's our site: www.eaststreetjazz.com


good luck to the high bidder!!!:D

536.00 :D

Wasn't trying to start any thing!! Just goofing around!! I have no idea what it cost to run this site and don't want to no!!
Just glad to see that it is here to stay!! :happy:

Swede is an animal.

tick-tock da clock is tikkin'.

:hihi:

Looks like a shootout between Swede and Beetle. :err:

By the way,

I'm throwing in another plug into the prize pot.

Yellow Bassmaster Pikie. Don't have a pic, but ya don't need one.

:crying:

34min 4 seconds left...its goint to boil down to who has the most accurate clock.

BM Pikie? :cool: 548..

Time sync: 4:34

4:36

Question.... if the deadline is 5:00pm then a post with 5:00 is technically past the deadline..really you want the last post with a 4:59pm postime.

549

Nahhhh - last post with 5:00 PM - seeing that we are not time scynched here... Same rules - last post with 5:00PM in the time stamp :D

6 minutes difference between my PC and the Forum time...

OK shooting for a 5:00:57 post then

Actually - I think it will be a crap shoot but I have changed the minimum time between posts from 20 seconds to 2 seconds. This way people want get the dreaded "The System Administrator has limited....." blah blah blah....

Just Noticed - So there is no confusion, if at the last moment there are two people that post the same money at the same time and are the last 2 posts (or however many tied) the FIRST person to post the highest dollar at the same price because those after did not post a HGIHER dollar - make sense?

:hihi: :laughs: :yak::smash:

Sandman pulled it out of the hat at $591. Clammer had $582 up at 4:59 and Sandman posted $591 followed by Swede with an incorrect bid at $583 but nobody caught the error 'cept for Beetle who got his $596 post in at 5:01 - which is too stinkin' late....

thanks for understanding, dude! :btu:

I think this was my longest thread, ever. :hihi: :laughs:

Thanks for putting this on Wee Wee, to help defray some of the expenses, fine job on both auctions.

Streetfight,
welcome aboard, and no problem about the misunderstanding, hell the thread was what, on page 40 or 50 when you bid ??

:smash:

:happy: :happy: you really are going to be suprised at how nice a rod and reel set up you got!!!

I would like to thank all the donors of this auction. As many of you plug makers know I love your work and have been trying to get my paws on these for quite some time. I wish I had the time to get into building them myself and swap…I have the tools just not the time or knowledge…maybe someday. I think the level of detail and fit and finish is simply unmatched, you all are gifted and very generous to donate them to the site. Since these are so hard to come by and since the collection was so complete I was really drooling to get them, but I was not expecting to win with guys like BETTLE and SWEDE and others consistently bidding.

To be honest I still think I got a good deal, and to know where the money was going made it that much easier to bid! JohnR does an amazing job as the site admin, and I know he puts in a lot of unpaid time to keep this going as it is. He certainly should not have to put up any money from his own wallet to keep this up. I think I speak for everyone that we are all thankful for his efforts. This place is a lot of fun.

I want you all to know that I get an amazing amount of enjoyment from fishing quality plugs like these in our famous NE fishing waters… especially the islands. Surf fishing alone with lures like these in waters around here is almost storybook-like for me, and I cherish the time I get to do it and can’t wait to feel the initial the hit from a big fish when I put them to use this spring. Anyway, I am really grateful and look forward to meeting you all sometime to thank you in person. I am not a very social guy but perhaps I can swing by one of your winter get-togethers…and if you ever out here fishing MV drop me a PM, maybe we can share a beer and story. Thanks Again to all!

CONGRATULATIONS Mr.Sandman !!! I knew you could do it :btu:

Congratulations Mr. Sandman:claps: PM me your address and the colors you would like the plugs done in and I will get right on them.

Nice Score is right - that is some schweet stuff!

OK! I want to thank everyone again! Everyone that donated stuff, participated, shelled out the cake :hihi:, and Mr WeeWee for thinking up and then running this auction! It really helps!

Thanks again :kewl:

Unfortunately I was at a meeting until 7 this evening. I definately would have gone to $600 but somehow I'm sure that Sandman would have claimed it for more. Congrats to the lucky winner and I am sure that your sentiments are those of everyone who comes to this site....
Merry Christmas to all...
This was a really fun thread.

That's OK - for those that feel left behind! We will be having a raffle coming soon for a Lami XRA132-2 Spiining Rod from M&D's, a possible Calcutta 400 from Bigfish (Larry - I have a question - maybe Wed if I can make the meeting?). And some other good stuff!

how 'bout my 40 mm grenade launcher? :confused:

Great for those pesky jet-skis...

After leaving bassmasters cave we stopped in to see Mike at M&D's sunday. As per usual I look over what he has hanging in the rack. The 1322 catches my attention immediately, what a gorgeous stick. :drool: I know I'll be in for some of these tickets.:D

I want that stick:drool: :jump: :bounce: :soon: :musc: :eyes:


I want it BADDDDDDDDDD

Congrats Sandman....:)

Thanks again guys! :hee: Again I am excited to be the winna.
Mailed payment to JohnR this AM.
I will PM each of the generous donors that offered a choice of somekind that requires my input today.

Any questions..PM me

THANKS AGAIN!

Congrats Sandman:D :D :D :D :D

Enough diamonds on there to get you Shania

If theres enough to get hir maybe I'll just keep it.:D

guide wrap.

rod and reel was shipped yesterday ! could have put it on a small plane for what they charged in shipping.:D

Again, much thanks everyone! (and mr. macey for absorbing those high shipping costs)

I have the xra132 (one piece version)...best surf rod I own.
I will not be bidding on that one and give someone else a shot.
The "problem" with a rod like that is you need $ 500/600 VS or stella to really compliment it.:laughs:

Would love to see a pic of all this shtuff once you get it all...

I will create an attractive pile when it all arrives and post a pic.

That BIG black Danny style plug in there I'm going to have to try as a trolling plug, That has 50 written all over it!

John...I would not call that spook "beat up"...I have got some plugs that make that look brand new....that thing has a couple nicks. I appreciate the mojo though!!

I can see I will want to buy some of these Mr. Wiggles...that's my first and looks pretty interesting.

BM's work is pretty sweet.

Nice pike fww!

Thanks again guys...

Did you get the number that I sent to you?

:hihi:

the big black danny style plug with the angled head (like a darter) is a beachmaster cowboy. that particular one has good mojo, having landed a 30+ lber in Rhody this past season.

:hihi:

unless, you're talking about the black and purple Bassmaster phatboy...killer plug. :drool:

I thought that might be the cowboy...that think has some beef to it!
I think I have the perfect rip to swim that thru.

BTW, where did you get that cowboy?

I couldn't hand over the super mojo plug as it was really bad. That one there caught 5 for 10 one night for me though... I did throw in an extra Blurple 17A and something else I don't recall ( I think :conf: - I've seen so many schweet custom plugs in the past week that I still smell wood)
