Malkavian time Auction + Blood Doll/Villein

This doesn't answer my question. To be clear, I am asking about what happens if you Auction off the Blood Doll, NOT the minion it's on.

This ruling covers the case for _Minion_ cards on minions; If you win an ivory bow in Malk Time Auction, you choose one of your minions to put it on.

However, the ruling says nothing, one way or the other about what happens if you Malk Auction masters.

Sure it does.

If you open up one of LSJ's replies on the same page, he says

Only for non-Equipment, non-Retainer, non-Location minion cards.
Changing control of Equipment, Retainers, or Locations on minions
results in the card being moved to a minion controlled by the new
controller.

???

Only for non-Equipment, non-Retainer, non-Location minion cards.

The next sentence refers to previous one, unless you think he was talking about master equipment and retainer cards that go on minions.

The ruling does not mention master cards because it does not need to: masters on minions stay where they are, even if their controller changes.

I didn't think the inference was not obvious. My bad. Malcolm said the ruling says nothing about Master cards. I read the ruling as saying plenty about Master cards by not mentioning them.

"Only...minion cards...". Is a Master card a minion card? No. Ergo, it does not move. That was what I read into the ruling.

Does it mention Master cards? No.
Does it say anything about Master cards one way or the other? I think it does.

That it doesn't move because it is not a minion card.

I'm searching for adequate rulings.

The most appropriate, so far, is this one: groups.google.com/d/msg/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/3N7thHoSNvE/bX2wPL4hKeEJ
which, pretty inconveniently, links to nothing.

I think going for Design Intent on Malkavian cards is too difficult, so the ruling that will be given will try to follow common sense. And existing rulings, but I'm still looking for those.
