  AucZILLA XII
 
AucZILLA XII is up. (URL) (24 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
Umm... mostly, Todd. I got error messages (access forbidden) on the links to individual item images. (...) (24 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

ditto (...) (24 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
(...) Oh, oops, I forgot to tell you the "secret handshake." When it says that, type "wugga wugga zub zub" and press Enter. --Todd (24 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
Oh, right. Why didn't I think of that? Meanwhile, is there another secret code to get all of the bid sheets to come to me at once? They've been showing up two at a time about once every two hours. So far, I'm only up to about message #14 (...) (24 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
(...) Maybe...lemme see what I can do. (...) Ya, they're staggered -- or round-robin'd -- or something. First message #1 goes out to everyone, then message #2, then #3, etc., all the way up to #38. The reason it takes a long time is because it's (...) (24 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
(...) I'd say Todd has things setup so as to not totally flood pair's network. With what, 50+ messages going out to probably several hundred people, that certainly could happen. Not sure if Todd is bound by the same "rules" that I am with my little (...) (24 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
(...) Was there a message #13? Mine seem to have come in random order, and I noticed that I had #12 and #14, but not #13 (among others). (24 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
(...) Ya, there is a message #13. (...) The outgoing mailer sometimes prioritizes the queue by, among other things, message size, so with tens of thousands of mails going out, it tends to shuffle things a bit sometimes. I just asked it to re-send (...) (24 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
(...) Hey Todd, just how does the Auczilla software recognize your email address? In other words does it have to match spot on or would it recognize "munged" email addresses? I ask because I think I sent in a bunch of bids with my "regular" usenet (...) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
(...) Any address coming in which doesn't match spot on with addresses in the bidder DB is highlighted, and I look at the name and figure out who it goes to. This is relatively rare (only usually a few times per auction) because people tend to list (...) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
(...) Exactly that, I started with: mtimm@usinternet.com went to this: mtimm@SPAMTHISusinternet.com in my usenet copy of agent, just too much spam if I don't. hmm just checked the outbox on both copies and the messages appear in neither of them, (...)

  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
(...) Thanks, both copies of #13 were in my inbox when I got home last night, along with the remainder of the messages. :-) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: AucZILLA XII
 
Todd, I have to commend you on AucZILLA. It's an exceedingly moby frob! I have rarely seen such a slick interface that needs so little coaxing, yet is simple enough that even dullards such as myself can fail to screw it up. -Cheese (...) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
