Title: Block 210000 update
Post by: laughingbear on December 07, 2012, 05:57:58 AM
As a lot of you may know, my first few weeks mining and being a part of this community have been very exciting. I wanted to post something here to thank a few people, and let you know whats been going on since 210000.  Thanks Theymos for the great forum title!  Thanks Slush for the bonus, and for having a great pool.  Thanks for Anonymous donations that were sent my way, whoever you are. 

A few articles mentioned my luck that day. I did go out that night and purchase a few lottery tickets, and didn't hit one number.

If you come across any more of these please let me know.

The best surprise came today. I received a email  from Josh over at BFL, informing me that they will be sending me a Jalapeno, for finding block 210000.  So thanks Josh, and thanks Butterfly Labs! This was a classy move, and I thought you all should know about it.

Congratulations.  That's awesome that you got a free Jalapeno out of the deal. Yes, you're right, very classy. Now, if they could just ship those backorders!
