Rolling End:
If a bid is timestamped between 11:55pm-11:59pm EST on the night of January 5th, there will be a "rolling ending" on that item. Basically every bid during this time frame opens up a new "5 minute window" for bidding to continue. This should cut down on sniping and raise the totals
For example:
If someone bids $125 on item #1 at 11:58pm, that item is still able to be bid on until 12:03am. If someone then bids $127 on #1 at 12:03am, then the new ending time for that item will be 12:08pm and so on…
The highest bids will be updated in this post as often as possible and especially frequently closer to the auction’s end…but be sure to check recent posts before bidding!

Luke asked me to let folks know he spoke to Nathan Barnatt (aka Keith Apicary, etc.) who offered this insight about this year's cause. I told him I'd post it here in the thread:
"I used to be able to say I've never injured my self doing stunts or physical comedy. I was pretty proud of that given some of the insane things I've done in videos. But that could only last so long. I do love going into a good physical bit or haming it up to get a laugh. One time I was trying to do this thing where I ran at a street sign and spun around it then end up walking in the opposite direction that I was going. My friend liked it and said "whoa do that again". Well I'm not one to turn down an audience. Sometimes I wish I was. I did it again and this time I pinched a nerve in my back and my arms went numb and I dropped to the ground like a rag doll. I couldn't feel my arms at all. It lasted for a day until I went to a chiropractor who adjusted me twice a day for a week until the feeling came back to my arms. The first crack was amazing! I could feel warmth rushing through my arms. Now I go to a chiropractor, get acupuncture and massages more than I brush my teeth.
I got my first big injury from shooting a video called "Surprised Brain Syndrome". I fall down over and over in it and in one shot I fell on my face and knocked out my front tooth. I didn't use that shot in the video cause it's too hard for me to watch. You can see that my tooth is missing in some shots in the video. I also broke my thumb once but that wasn't video related. I ran up a staircase really fast cause you know, I'm a gifted athlete with powerful thighs. As I ran up I banged my thumb on the railing and broke it. Then last year I shattered my heel performing as Keith Apicary at SGC. That was the first one that required surgery. But those are my only serious injuries. Other than hideous bumps and bruises. Oh and going bald. I think of balding as a gradual injury. Like getting punched in slow motion.
The most debilitating one was shattering my heel. It happened when I jumped off a 13 foot ledge in order to surprise the audience and make my entrance by dropping from above. I ended up surprising myself the most cause I couldn't stand up after. I couldn't walk for like 5 months. That was weird and tough for me since I'm used to doing flips, jumping, running and throwing my self around on a daily basis.
I was able to play video games after and that's all I did. I played games non stop. One of the few happy memories I have from those months was playing GTAV and beating it. I got really sad when it ended. The game sort of felt like my life. I wasn't confined to a couch or a bed in there. It was nice to be able to run around and do crazy things in the game since I couldn't in real life. It was a pretty therapeutic.
Back when I broke my thumb I did stop playing games cause of the cast I had to wear. It was super frustrating. I remember trying to play Dreamcast and moving the thumb stick with my pointer finger and middle finger. It was so hard. I sort of got the hang of it enough to kind of play marvel vs capcom. But it was more frustrating than fun so I ended up just not playing till I got the cast off. I think it was only like a month. It definitely helps me appreciate having my thumbs. I'm not sure if they have or not but they should make controllers for disabled gamers. If they have then good. I'll invest in their stock.
I think disabled gamers are the most dedicated ones out there. Disabled people are the most dedicated humans out there. After experiencing it myself I know how it can be to not be able to do what you used to do. Or not participate in things that your friends are doing. It's tough being the one who just hangs by the side and watches. To be able to overcome a physical challenge and to learn to use a controller in a way it's not designed shows how much you love games. Not that I didn't before but after breaking my heel I have so much new found respect for people who go through any type of disability. Especially disabled gamers."
