We've done this exact event in XIV before, and the bidding didn't go on forever. No one used real gil, and everyone basically had a hard limit ahead of time, and didn't go over their limit. It would make sense if everyone went ahead and picked a hard limit before the event, and then registered it with the event people. Then, they can't overbid, it won't take too long, and no one has to feel that they're forking over real gil. It's win/win.
But yes, this is a fun event, and I would be all for doing it again.
