Regulation AM0/1 Generalized Auction Generalized auctions exist to give context to the form of other types of auctions. They cannot be held directly. Other auction methods that use this type of auction as a starting point can override attributes of generalized auctions except when it is explicitly stated that that attribute is not able to be overridden. 1. INITIATION: * The auctioneer CAN begin an auction that e is authorized to by creating a public message (henceforth the "initiation message"), specifying the type of auction method that will be held, a list of lots that will be auctioned off, and the currency that the auction uses. Bidding is initally open. * Derivative auction methods cannot specify the exclusion of any information listed above from the initiation message of auctions using that method. 2. BIDDING: * Players CAN place a bid on an open auction by creating a public message (henceforth a "bid message") specifying a number of the auction's currency as eir bid not equal to the bid of another player. * Players CAN withdraw from an open auction by announcement. 3. TERMINATION: * Bidding is closed four days after either the beginning of the auction or after the most recent bid was placed, whichever is later. The auction ends at this time as well. 4. AWARDING: * For each auction, there are a number of awardees equal to the number of lots. The Nth lot of an auction goes to the Nth awardee of that auction. If the identity of an awardee is undecidable, then that lot cannot be given away. * Auction methods specify how awardees are picked for auctions using that method. * Derivative auction methods should ensure that only players who have at least as much of that auction's currency as eir highest bid on that auction (hereafter "funded players") can be selected as awardees for auctions using that auction method. * The auctioneer of an auction SHALL after the ending of that auction create a public message (henceforth the "termination message") that contains a full history of bids on the auction and withdrawals from the auction. It should also clearly indicate each awardee and the lot e recieves. 5. CLAIMING: * During the period from the end of the auction until 7 days after the publication of the termiation message, each awardee of that auction CAN transfer (or create in eir own possession if the item is new) the set of assets associated with the lot e won by paying a fee corresponding to eir winning bid.

History: Enacted by Trigon, 08 Aug 2020 Annotations: Regulation AM2/0 Sealed-bid Auctions Sealed-bid auctions function like generalized auctions except: * Players can only submit bids on a sealed-bid auction if they do not have a bid in that auction. * Bids must be
