This is a new thread due to the fact that our fairbyte account was banned, I guess because of the giveway.
I hope we will manage to get it unbanned.

However we'll be more carefull to the forum rules.

We made a mistake starting a giveway, but I hope the mods will unban the account.
We didn't pay close attention to forum rules so here we are, main account banned and people confused.

We would like to inform you that our coin has been added to the Voting List (https://askcoin.net/votes) on modern exchange AskCoin.Net (https://askcoin.net).
Also the next week we will be changing the FBC symbol to another one, due to other coins with the same symbol (FootbalCoin, FacebookCoin, FootballCoin2014). Most probably the symbol will be FBY, but we will announce it after the voting for the new symbol is over and wallet update will be ready.

I understand there was a pre-mine for devs only, but giving the address for it once the block explorer is up would be beneficial to building trust within the community.

Yes, you are right. We are hoping to recover the trust within community, and more things are in development right now.

You are referring to ["blockvalue" : 20000000000]?
If that is the case let me explain where is that value coming from.
The block value returned by getmininginfo is the block reward expressed in satoshi which is blockreward * COIN (200 * 100000000) hence the large value.
Code:
static const int64 COIN = 100000000;

Now the normal block reward is 100 FBT.

is the total still on track for being 135 million?

Nothing is changed, still ~135 million coins.
The coin is on normal track.
We'll have to decide for second PoW phase if we'll start at initial block reward of 200 coins.

if you are updating the wallet it would be nice to differentiate mined PoS blocks versus mined PoW blocks.

First of all we plan to support the coin for a long time, and we will continue the development permanently.
Also, we think that the second PoW phase will ensure a fair distribution for people that missed the coin launch.
What is to be done next:
- finish the block explorer
- redesign the wallet and add new functionalities to it
- get listed in exchanges
- attract merchants to use the coin
- develop mobile wallets for android and ios
- develop an ATM, a POS and a wallet chip card (thats a very hard one)
- and whatever may come to our mind and we believe is nice to have.

I found an error in the Block Explorer on mined blocks. It looks like the inputs of a generated tx are wrong.

Would appreciate it if you could briefly summarise:
1) the strengths of this coin?
2) the weaknesses of this coin?
3) promises made? kept? any FUD?

Specifically to the dev(s), what will be the key original code/feature(s) in this coin?
You're using a newbie account. Will you be providing "Proof of Developer"? http://cryptoasian.com/coin-list/
Do you have C++ expertise?

You're using a newbie account. Will you be providing "Proof of Developer"? http://cryptoasian.com/coin-list/
Do you have C++ expertise?

First of all let me say we are a small dev team of 3 people, with a programming experience of over 15 years in c, c++, objective c and php on linux, mac and windows.
Also I have allot of experience in payment cards processing.
We've created the coin from passion and because of our interest in cryptos.
Even we have allot of experience in programming, the cryptography is somehow a new territory for us, and we considered that a challenge.

Just to summarize:
1) as strengths
 - X13 algorithm, Asic resistant
 - second PoW phase that will ensure a fair distribution for people that missed the coin launch
 - superblocks that we'll make the coin attractive for mining
 - relative fast PoS block time that leads to a stable coin and fast transaction time (<60 sec)

2) as weeknesses
 - we are not marketing experts
 - the community will decide

3) promises
 - we plan to support the coin for a long time, and we will continue the development in order to add new features and improvements
 
We will only disclose new features after alpha testing is completed successfully. As for "Proof of Developer" matter, it will be considered in the future.

dev roadmap, you can not talk like that is empty, you have to have a roadmap, a marketing team to help you, if you leave them at my coin so that the coin tie line will die

We have allot of work for now and cannot focus on this right away, but a marketing team is a must, so it is on our list.

The next PoW phase will begin in aprox. 26 days, you may see an update estimate on FairByte Block Explorer (http://explorer.fairbyte.ninja).
For the second PoW phase we'll reinitialize the initial normal block reward at 200 FBT and the reward halving will be changed from 10 days block time to 20 days.
