Yep, it was the Fugitive DVD one that I linked to.

It looks like a regular auction page except for the picture is a congratulations picture. The user that posts them is usually a random name like 1ef93f8s or something.

i dont see the point of teaming

50 people win $20 or 1 person with $1K

better for one person to win something that actually matters somewhat

we teamed up initially because we thought it would be very difficult but the clues they are giving are pretty good so there shouldn't be a need anymore. I just wanted to say what I did to "officially unbind" myself from the team of last night.
 
The only thing I can think of is Hollywood Squares, and everything I've searched for for that has turned up no mullah.

same here 🙁 But if that were the case, I bet it would've been won within the first 2 minutes.
 
its something to do with Hollywood, the clues are not direct references generally to the winning auction. 'play the squares' is a direct reference to Hollywood Squares, so the auction should have something to do with hollywood in general
 
this is a huge waste of my time. if i didnt have work to do...then yea. but bah...this is taking too much of my time!!!!
 
does the auction have a preview pic of the winning page? Or do you have to look through every auction if you think you know it?

i am pretty sure it doesnt have the preview

but i'm wondering if the winng auction has to have the buy it now logo next to the price
 
DAMMIT, I was on the right path with Old Faithful, looking at various yellow gems, but I'm at work, so couldn't look too much. Ugh.
