Title: Callout BFL on uncompleted Monarch raffle giveaway Post by: deepceleron on August 28, 2014, 07:25:40 AM BFL_Josh posted on 3/29 about a giveaway of a Monarch 28nm miner on the BFL forum:

Entries will close the day we ship our first Monarch product to a paying customer. Entries will be accepted up to 23:59 UTC of that day. 4.

It is therefore past the date of #3 and #4. No list of final entrants has been published, which is required for openness before a blockchain-picked raffle. There has been no activity on the raffle giveaway thread for months. I do not have an account on that forum; I discovered the contest looking at backlinks to my site's pages with the raffle picker. I am just interested in keeping this contest and BFL honest for everyone that wasted their time entering. screenshot of complete raffle post for posterity: http://we.lovebitco.in/img/bflrafflescreenshot.png Title: Re: Callout BFL on uncompleted Monarch raffle giveaway Post by: Bicknellski on August 28, 2014, 08:09:56 AM BFL_Josh posted on 3/29 about a giveaway of a Monarch 28nm miner on the BFL forum: https://forums.butterflylabs.com/announcements/8203-win-butterfly-labs-imperial-monarch.html In exchange for spamming up this forum's trust system, he offers to give away hardware to entrants: Quote from: https://forums.butterflylabs.com/announcements/8203-win-butterfly-labs-imperial-monarch.html Win a Butterfly Labs Imperial Monarch! 1.

Those participating in this raffle deserve absolutely nothing other than a negative trust rating along with BFL and BFL posers.

I also love how before this contest, no-one dared to give negative feedback to the BFL accounts in case it fired back on them. Now look at them, eh?

I don't know what timezone Bitcointalk and the BFL Forums use, if they're the same, then BFL_Josh made that thread 12 hours after this thread was made.

He also announced he was compiling the list 4 minutes after georgecummings asked who won. But for the whining club with nobody bickfailsky jumping in, another reason to call fail. The same bickfailsky btw who abused the trust system from the day he noticed it, and was the inspiration to make the contest. So it is also prove that the trust system sucks, is misused, and can be manipulated easily. roflTitle: Re: Callout BFL on uncompleted Monarch raffle giveaway Post by: Prez on August 29, 2014, 02:12:15 PM OOOh BFL you have it coming.

Never buy BFL or EMC is the best advice anyone can give. Even better don't game the trust system with faux contests littered with your own alt accounts. That is the biggest no no right? |
