Subject: Week 6 - Mad House Auction Fri Apr 19, 2019 1:45 am
Val appears on the screen. "HouseGuests, please join me in the living room." Val waits for everyone to join her before continuing. "Is everyone here? Good. Well, today is the Mad House Auction! But before we move on... I want to bring in a few special guests..." Val chuckles. "That's all I'm saying for now. Toodles, HouseGuests." Val disappears from the screen.
DING DONG! Before the contestants can even react, the doorbell rings. TWO special HouseGuests jumps out.... Harriet and Jane from The Mad House 3!
"Hello, everyone!" Jane was all smiles and high-fives, whereas her sister just looked like vaguely disgusted. "It's great to be back--even better to, uh, meet the new members of the Mad House family!"
"And from the looks of things, you're all fighting like a bunch of catty siblings." Harriet smirked and threw an arm around her sister, who instantly recoiled. "Good for ratings--bad for your game. Janey and I know that better than probably anyone, isn't that right, Jane?"
"Well, uh, the game IS designed to... That is... Uh..."
Harriet cut Jane off before she could babble out some incoherent platitudes. "ANYWAY. The two of us are here to host this week's auction. In front of us we have a table," Harriet gestures to the table in the middle of the living room. The table has three plate covers. She and her sister then pull the covers from the table to reveal what's under them.
"These are your options for your purchases this week. They have no lables, because it's a surprise." Jane smiled sheepishly. "Once the auction is over, Harriet and I will read what each card is."
"Just like past auctions: one of these is a punishment, one is a prize and one is a special power! You can only bid whatever it is that you have in your current chip total. So if you have enough chips, you're able to bid on more than one thing. And obviously, if you win your bid, then you will lose whatever amount of chips you bid on that item."
"Wanda and Paula, as current House Ambassadors, you will not be able to bid. And, as you know, each week, the evicted contestant gets to donate their chips to a HouseGuest of their choice! Xavier has chosen NOT to donate their chips to anyone! Oops, that sucks." She flashed one more venemous smirk at the HouseGuests and stepped back. "Let the bidding begin!"
Hey guys! So, you have until 12AM EST to submit your bid. This will be open until then. You must bid here on the forum as your character. You can bid as many chips as you have, or not at all. But it must be done before 12AM. Any questions let me know! Here's how many chips each character has as a reminder:

Donovan raises his hand like he usually does....even though he doesn't need to. He's going to keep his promise to Peaches and get the thing that he thinks is a twist for this week. "I bid 40 on the green arrows!"

Sergio decides that now it's as good a time as ever to try and get something from the auction with the many chips he has. "Hmmm, I bid 55 on the green arrows."

Clayton needed something to boost his game. “I’ll bid 60 on the green arrows and 30 on the camo hat!”

Carmen, who has patiently biding her time till the time to strike has decided to throw her bejeweled cowboy hat into the ring. "210 on the-" Sergio interrupts her with, of course, a bid above her amount of Val Chips. Of course! He's THAT petty. Why is he so pressed about me? Whatever. There's other stuff."45 on the Cute camp cap!"

”Alright, you worthless idiots!" Harriet said. "Bidding time is up. Let's see what you've won.” She scoffs. “None of this looks even remotely interesting. Let's start with the Basket... Aaliyah, you've won this item for 70 chips. And this item is... A Basket From Home!" She rolls her eyes and begins to read off of the card. "'Congratulations HouseGuest, you've been sent a basket from your loved ones. Inside are all your favorite comfort items, some sentimental pictures and a letter from a loved one’." Harriet crosses her arm. “Sounds utterly useless--especially for 70 Chips.”
“I thought it was kind of sweet,” Jane shrugs. "Alright Carmen, you won the card with the Army Cap on it for 45 chips." She begins to read off of the back of the card. "Sorry HouseGuest, you have received the Boot Camp punishment! For 24 hours, you must perform your Boot Camp training every time you hear this noise."
“Yikes… that’s harsh.”
“She’ll be fine. At least it’s not our mother.” Harriet says. “And finally, we once again have Sergio with the highest bid on the Arrows.” She picks up the card. “Sergio with 270 chips you have won this card.” Harriet begins to read it. “‘Congratulations HouseGuest, you have won the Swap Power! This power allows you to swap any two people from each team. The only catch is that it must be an even swap.'” Harriet raises her eyebrows after reading the last card. “That’s… actually pretty interesting.”
Jane smiles and claps her hands together. “Well, congratulations to our winners! Gotta head out! I don’t want to keep you guys with Harriet any longer than you have to be!" She laughs. "Bye!”

Aaliyah jumps up and begins to get emotional, "Oh my god, I'll get to hear from my family and friends." She squeals.

Sam sighs in relief, glad she didn't win the cap. "Dang, I thought the cap would be you got to wear a cool army uniform all week! Thanks for taking the bullet Carmen."
