this is probably up on the site somewhere but I got a dog to walk!
what happens if you are serving two (or more) of us on the same bid?

Thank you Cat

If two users happened to place snipes on the same item for the same amount both bids would be sent, under eBay rules if both were accepted then the earlier one (in Gixen terms having a larger offset) would win the auction.

No. Mirror members have their bid sent from two servers instead of one, but your bid is sent exactly at the offset time you specify (for non-mirror users 6 seconds). Gixen never delays sending anyone's bid unless there is a serious problem of some kind, and under no circumstance does it ever send too early.

I agree that Mirror subscribers are not 'served first'.

Mirror subscribers have the option to choose a different offset for their snipes, but this is a matter of choice and could not therefore be described in the way implied.
