As a quick example, I'd point to the fact that there are about six modules at Neverwinter Vault with "White Plume Mountain" in the title and not one of them is worth a damn. On the other hand, I've wasted a lot of time with poor PNP conversions — although the only loss has been my time, there's something about a bad module that is really, really annoying. We recently finished a Queen of the Demonweb Pits excursion that I thought the author did a great job with we've completed the entire U1-U3 series with beginning-level characters and I'm also solo-ing through a conversion of Village of Hommlet. Currently, with a buddy of mine, I'm going through a Tomb of Horrors conversion that is fantastic (it's something like the 6th-highest-rated module on Neverwinter Vault's extensive site). Frankly, most of the best NWN modules are not classic PNP conversions — I think doing a really good conversion requires a level of love and patience that many of the authors do not have. I've learned, slowly, to trust certain module authors, to avoid others, and to really read/discuss others' comments before commiting to a download (I use Neverwinter Vault, in case anyone is wondering). The key to NWN modules is trying to balance the obvious good (they're free) with the potential downside (many of them are god-awful). To sum up, AuctionMagic is a good tool for anyone who regularly trades items on eBay, especially for those searching for a sniping program.Nev wrote:So has anyone played any of the conversions that have been done from the PNP (pen and paper) modules to NWN modules? Oh, yeah, I've played a million of them. The utility keeps track of multiple auctions and allows users to bid on items a few seconds before the expiry time The only essential configuration one needs to perform before employing this program is defining the eBay account. The program comes with a very clean GUI and simple overall setup that permits users of all levels to start monitoring bids with just a few mouse clicks. The program synchronizes the system clock with that of eBay, so users don't risk loses due to time delays (provided a consistent Internet connection is available). This task can also be automated, so there is no need for one to be at the computer when bids are placed. Since all monitored auctions are displayed in a list, complete with timers and bidding information, one can employ it to purchase items with just a few seconds before bidding ends. But the real power of this program is its sniping ability. With it, one can scrape the eBay database for certain auctions and even monitor all sales by a certain user. It can also be employed to issue conditional bidding rules, as well as sniping commands, effectively winning auctions at the lowest possible price. The standalone application also integrates with several common browsers, including Firefox or Internet Explorer and allows one to create lists of monitored auctions. As one of the largest players, eBay has seen a fair share of such tools and AuctionMagic is one of them. With the emergence of multiple e-commerce platforms, there has been a surge in programs of various types that assist users in trading in the online environment.
