bid Purpose: bid on an item currently on the public auction block; or find out what the current bid is Synonyms: none SYNTAX EXAMPLES 1. bid 1. bid 2. bid <quantity> 2. bid 25 USE: Use form one when you want to know what the current bid is, or if any bids have in fact been placed. Use form two when you want to place a bid on the item currently being auctioned. You must have at least as much funds in your possession as the quantity of your bid, or it won't be allowed. "Possession" includes your bank account, you don't have to carry the cash. Note that once you place a bid, you're committed. There's no undoing a bid, and the funds you've pledged are placed on hold until the auction ends or someone outbids you. Note also that you may or may not be allowed to bid on items you yourself place on auction. This decision is up to the individual Auctioneers, who determine their own policies.     Complete command reference: Accept ACL Actuate AFK Alias Amazed Applaud Apprentice Armcross ArtistSpiff Ask Astonished Astounded Auction Backstab Baffled Balance Bandage Barf Bash Bashful Beckon Beg Belch Beseech Bid Birdflip Bite Blink Blubber Blush BodyPierce Bored Bounce Bow BSpiff Bug BuilderSpiff Bump Burp Bye C Cackle CartographerSpiff Chat Checkin Checkout Cheer Chop Chortle Chuckle Claw Close Club CodeWarriorSpiff ComedianSpiff Compose Con Concerned Confused Congrat Congrats Consider Conversions Cough Crawl Cry CSpiff Curious Curtsey Cut CWSpiff D Dance Date Deposit Description DiagnoseIllness Disarm Disbelieve Disgusted Donate Down Drag DrawIllness DrawIntoxication DrawMagicCircle DrawParalysis Drink Drool Drop E East Eat Ec Echo Elbow Embarrassed Embrace Empty Energize EnergyDrain EnergySteal Entreat Eq Equipment Ex Exits Eyeroll Facebook Fart FB Fill Flee Flirt Flourish Follow Followers Fondle FootTap Frown Frustrated Fume Gasp Gaze Genuflect Get Giggle Give Glance Glare Glower Go Grab Grat Grats Gratuity Grimace Grin Groan Group Grovel Growl Guffaw H HandClap Harm Heal Heave Heir Help Hiccup HiddenEnergyDrain HiddenEnergySteal HiddenHarm Hide Highfive Hit Hold Holler Howl Hug Hurl I Ignore Implore Inv Inventory Junk Kills Kiss Kneel Knife Knock L Laugh Lay Leader Lean Learn List Listen Lock Lockpick Logoff Logout LOL Look Mail Manicure Map MCircle MeatPuppet Med Meditate Message Mock Move N Nod North Nudge Nuzzle O OOC Open P Page Pant Pat Peek Pick Pierce PlayRoulette PlaySlot Point Ponder Pound Pour Practice Press Problem Prostrate Puke Push Put Quake Quit RClean Read Recycle Remove RemoveParalysis Rent Report ReporterSpiff Rescue Rest Return Revive Reward RitualClean Roles Roll S Sacrifice Say Scowl Scream Seethe Sell Shackle Shiver Shoot Shout Shove Shrug Shudder Sigh Sing Sit Skills Slash Sleep Smell Smile Snarl Sneak Sneer Sneeze Snicker Snort Sob South Spear Spew Spit Spock Squirm Stab Stand Stare Steal Sting Stretch Stroke Survey Tag Taste Tattoos Taunt Teach TelevisionWriterSpiff Tell Think Thrash Time Tired Title Touch Track Transfer Trash Tremble Trip TVWSpiff U Ungroup Unlock Up Uptime Value W Wake Wanted Wave Wear Weekday Weep West Whack Whimper Whip Whisper Who Wield Wiggle Will Wince Wink Withdraw Workout Worldstats Wriggle Write Yawn Yell Yelp ?

That is, postmodernist fiction deploys strategies which engage and foreground questions like ... "Which world is this? What is to be done in it? Which of my selves is to do it?" Other typical postmodernist questions bear either on the ontology of the literary text itself or on the ontology of the world which it projects, for instance: What is a world?; What kinds of worlds are there, how are they constituted, and how do they differ?; What happens when different kinds of worlds are placed in confrontation, or when boundaries between worlds are violated?; What is the mode of existence of a text, and what is the mode of existence of the world (or worlds) it projects?; How is a projected world structured? And so on." --Brian McHale, Postmodernist Fiction (info)
