Who owns auction times?

[Tad Carlucci]

It's up to the sim owner and auctioneers to work out.

Maybe it's more important to the sim owner to be sure there's only one auction going on at a time across all her regions.

Or maybe the sim owner wants only one auction area and leaves it to the auctioneers to work out.

Or maybe a group of auctioneers works it out among themselves about when and were each will work.

If you don't like the rules, find a region/owner/group/auctioneers/whatever which you do like.
