unable to reveal bid after deadline #12

Closed mjmau closed 7 years ago

mjmau commented 7 years ago

If you forget to reveal a bid during the 48-hour reveal phase, and then try to reveal it, ethers-ens prints an error:

  Error: name already owned

However, it is still worthwhile to reveal the bid, as 0.5% of the bid can be claimed.

You are absolutely correct. I will add a --force flag today that will disable certain checks that make sense in edge cases.

For example, you may also wish to bid before an auction is started.

Updated. Please re-install ethers-ens via:

/Users/ethers> npm install -g ethers-ens

You should be able to reveal the bid of an expired auction to reclaim your 0.5%.
