This is the benefit of the entire auction closing at once -- you dont get locked out of any specific item. That said, it sucks when an item that has gotten no love gets a final hit at 5am and/or to have to wake up at 5am to bid or protect your item. LOTG's format is a nice compromise.

But I just can't get on board with the "whomever can stay up the latest" gets the last look. Goes against my sense of fairness, but I figured that enough people must like it so that is why Al sticks with it....
