Making gold in cata

[zenga]

Example from what i just did:

Prices on gems are low, after a weekend of reposting and undercutting. There where 5 types of gems that were under 15g each, with 5-6 listed. It'd be dumb to undercut those. So I bought those out and reset them.
Even if you are not JC thats a good opportunity: sunday night is like the busiest day for gems, so monday morning there can be found quite some bargains on the AH.

Another thing you can pay attention to: scan AH half an hour before the reset, select auctions on duration, and make a bit on stuff that's going to expire in during the reset. Been able to get some sweet deals when i happen to be around.

Auction houses have been changed to game time in late 2006? so that time wouldn't tick for auctions during maintenance.
Have they changed that back?
Or are you saying that people don't typically check as soon as the servers are up and you have a god chance to get the items.

It used to be a fun sport to try and be the last one to bid in those fateful seconds before the servers went down.

zub, don't know not been around that long. All I can say is that when I list an auction for 12h at 02h00 when there is weekly reset at 03h00-11h00 am, and I check back late afternoon, the auction expired. Whereas I should still be up according to your logic.

On top of that would 've been extremely lucky with the bids I place that none is overbidding me when the servers are back up, for months. So yeah I do believe it just keeps counting during downtime.

I've ust read all the patch notes since the AH were added (patch 0.8) and also found this: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/to...7589384?page=1
Seems i must have dreamed it, i was sure they made that change long ago.
Sorry for the confusion.
