You forgot to make your first threat self-moderated, so you closed it accordingly.

Very promising for the coin ...

Im solo mining with 830kh/s and find about 1/5 blocks!
I started at block 103 and have since found 11 blocks. and now we are on block 126. Holy $@#%, I have almost found 1/2 the blocks.
This doesn't make sense. On my miner I get about 5 "New block detected on network" messages before I find a block. but my wallet says we are only on block 126.

It was supposed to launch originally on March 15, 12:00 AM PST, then it was changed to 12:00 AM PST on March 16. The dev made no announcement after it failed to launch at that time until 3 hours later. I suppose to give him more time to insta-mine his own shitcoin since he has made no statement regarding a pre-mine.

How come the coin rewards say that you will get 606 coins per block when I am getting 6060 coins per block?
so far I have 48480 coins in balance and 24240 that are immature.

Because each block is 6060 coins. :)
It's funny because my lucky number happens to be 6.
