January 2010 OLA Scavenger Hunt Winners

This month's scavenger hunt on www.onlineauction.com was the shortest game I have been involved with, since I started playing last January! The game started Sunday, and usually runs for a week, but this month, it was all over by Tuesday! WOW!
We had 2 players who found all the answers, and a couple more who were only missing one or two answers! WOW again! Finishing first with all 13 correct answers was bedding4me, and finishing a very close second was curiocache. Other top finishers included Tjintx, who had found 12 correct answers, and robinsgoneshopn had a great first game, with a score of 11. Winner of the participation prize was robinsgoneshopin.

Bedding4me will be hosting the next scavenger hunt game, and she has scheduled sign-ups to be posted February 7th, with the game to start on February 14th, Valentine's Day.

Scavenger Hunting for Auction Credits, and Hunting for Bargains on OLA

The December scavenger hunt is set to start on Tuesday, December 1st. This wonderful and challenging game awards the winner with $100 in auction credits, courtesy of OLA. These auction credits can be used to cover the cost of extra pictures in listings and to list items on the front page in the featured section. Yes, December is a busy month, and I am busy too, but how can I not sign up for this fabulous game? Sign-ups are still going on, so if you haven't signed up yet, what are you waiting for????
