Title: Caught up - new user but long time lurker
Post by: Lisinopril on April 30, 2013, 02:58:03 PM
Hello all,

Been mining for awhile now, and was doing some reading on here like I do and saw and opportunity to buy some avalon chips and have someone put them together (zefir/burnin).  Signed up and then realized I can't contact them or send order info because of newbie jail safeguards.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=179769.msg1875862#msg1875862

Is there anyway to get these waved so I can not miss the window for ordering?  I promise not to be a douche or troll :)

Thanks!

L

You can try the whitelist thread:

But why not just fulfill the requirements?  It doesn't take all that long :D

This is true, and is part of the reason I started this thread, as now I'm at 2 (and should be able to PM soon).

While waiting, what do you guys think about that stragety of buying in with avalon chips and having someone assemble them for you?  It seems fairly risky, but then again no real better options.  BFL stuff seems to be shaky at best, and at worst will take you a super long time if you place an order now.

As an aside, I had considered a bitcoin farm a LONG time ago and probably would be rich if I did what I wanted and didn't listen to the Mrs. - but then again, probably a lot of stories like that :)

I'm in the same boat, I ordered chips from zefir and now I'm waiting for burnin to start accepting orders. I think it would be great if burnin delivers in July. But I wonder how it is possible for one person to develop, test and deliver a mining board in just two months.
