Rod,

Was it fair that the person with most money won the domain?

Wouldnt drawing them from a hat been better?

Yes i agree, money make the world go round, the auDA is making sure they
stop that too AFTER they made theirs

I was part of serveral auctions that went for quite large sums,
nobody knows it yet tho because the cards are not all on the table.
