Hello, all. I ran a short series last year called the Mechanic of the Day. It is back at the following website:

I've archived all of the posts that were done for my local game design group and put them on the site, as well. I may not post every weekday, but there will still be new content regularly.
For today, I've revisited a few way auctions can be implemented...

Keep on designing, yo!
