    Organizing your bazaar?

    We have all seen the pics of the "F U C K Y O U" eggs from the easter egg event in their bazaar but how do they do it?

    I autosort my inventory and I put 2 rings in my bazaar until I can use them they are the same name, same level ect and right next to each other in my inventory I put them into my bazaar for the same price and I get this

    Ring1
    item
    item
    item
    Ring2

    How did one get to the top and one at the bottem >.>

    Someone share their secret!

    i think you need to
    - take everything out of bazaar, and exit the bazaar dialog entirely
    - put the item you want on bazaar up first, then exit the bazaar dialog
    - put the 2nd item, exit the bazaar dialog
    - lather, rinse, repeat
    This does not work, I get the EXACT same order I do when I do it all at once.

    WHY 2 of the EXACT same ring end up on the top AND bottem of the list is beyond me.

    There IS a method to it but this is not it.

    As far as I remember the method to sort your bazaar the way you want was removed to prevent people from writing FUCKYOU and the like with their eggs, so such things would be remnants from some time ago.

    Was this in the patch notes somewhere or did they sneak it in and the way I mentioned above is the old way which is no longer possible?

    maybe its all about taking things OUT of your bazaar that are in the wrong spot? then the stuff that is left will be at the top
    and i wonder then what happens if you put the stuff back
    (still at work, still cannot test myself)

    i worked this out with a friend to have my linkshell name in eggs. Before our HNM mule got banned, every mule had "VALIDUS" in eggs in the bazaar.

    To do it, you need to get someone else to trade the eggs to you one at a time. The order in which the eggs enter your inventory is the order that they will show up in your bazaar. I'm not sure how autosort effects this, but im fairly sure it doesn't.

    ^ This is correct. Nice tip.

    Also, I'm also pretty sure autosort doesn't affect this, it's merely the order in which they enter your inventory.

    That is even more confusing because when I got the 2 rings that keep appearing at the top and bottem of my list, I was traded them at the same time.

    Just speculation from a programmer's perspective, but it's likely that each item in your inventory has an index to distinguish it from the rest. This would mean that if you put items 0 through 5 in your inventory, then put item 2 back in your Mog Safe, the next item you put in your inventory would get the next available index of 2. If you were to disconnect, the system won't save the order of your items and when you log back in, they will be listed by default in index order (which explains the item order scrambling upon D/C).

    If Bazaar items always display in index order (regardless of whether the indices are consecutive), this would be why the order in which you put them in your inventory makes a difference.

    This is all speculation, but using Ockham's razor. It makes sense.

    EDIT: What you need to do is remove ALL your bazaar items from your inventory and put them back in the order you want. Not just the rings.

    putting them in mh and taking them out also worked, though it doesn't anymore. does it still work if you use dbox/trading?

    and yay, just lost 300k because i'm too stupid to take items out of bazaar after i left mh lol -.-
