Whoa, you guys are gonna lose your reputation as the most spam-fightiest ad campaign. People loved you that you paid for advertising but didn't require a minimum post number---no worthless posts from your users, only meaningful ones.
True, there's some risk, but I hope that the minimum post count will be reasonable and will just eliminate inactive accounts without affecting normal users much. I'm ok with it and will most likely not change my posting frequency (and I do hope my posts are considered constructive by enough people). Onkel Paul We shall see. I think I'm just sad to see this change as it seemed to be the one exception to what everyone else is doing---and diversity is nice! Still, I could understand why they don't want to pay folks who aren't doing any posting at all, ever.

I just send my info to Blazed Out, just saw that he wants to go ahead and ship things even if we still have a little time left on the term of the campaign.

interested in joining, but i tend to have low overall post counts, week to week. is there really no minimum?
We plan to implement minimum weekly posts. May be next week. Whoa, you guys are gonna lose your reputation as the most spam-fightiest ad campaign. People loved you that you paid for advertising but didn't require a minimum post number---no worthless posts from your users, only meaningful ones.

Great promos, seals!
as far as 2 confs, I don't really mind, i agree that you guys have a great security record. do whatever you feel best.
still, from my understanding of the satoshi whitepaper, you'd need a lot of hashing power to overturn 1 conf on today's network.

Ok, I'd like to give this a try. I'll send a PM.
Also, OP, please change the topic title to 5mBTC since that's what you're giving out now, right?
No word yet, either the promo's over or xbtjackpot doesn't log in all that often.

Thanks for keeping us in the loop. While this might make it a bit more difficult to keep track of your expected payout, I think it's definitely a good idea not to pay as much for off-topic, etc.

I just deposited the other day and I was surprised to see the 2 confirmations thing. I think it's pretty difficult to overturn 1 confirmation, I wonder what the motivation is.

You're talking about a crash below zero (you say it could happen). But that would mean you'd have to pay people to take your bitcoins. That's seems quite unlikely to me. Even if bitcoin hits zero (no one will pay you for them). You can simply erase your bitcoin wallet for free---you don't have to pay anyone to get rid of them (which is what a below zero price would mean).

What's the pirate@40 thing you're talking about. I don't think I've heard of this (even though I'm not a wet-dreaming libertarian anyway).

Some ppl are just posting repeats, which I think isn't going to count. Looks like the lowest score untaken at this point is 4 - 0 Roma. Wow! Guess I'm late to the party again. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif)

Gov't responding to the desires of vocal constituents. I think that's pretty normal. Not that it's necessarily correct, but I think it is the way things normally work.

Right, but I'd say bitmixer.io must be thinking about spam promotion as well. This campaign doesn't incentivize frivolous posting, you know?
|
|

I'm personally hoping for a bit more of a delay. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I'd like to get back in with PD but I'm got another week or so on my current sponsorship.

Yup, I guess you just have to pay close attention if you want to try to guess near the top. Fun contest, tho, I hope I can get in on the next round.

Too bad I've had my seals account for years now. Wish you were around giving out lifetime bonuses then ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

D'oh. I didn't see a winner announced for this match, so I figured it hadn't happened yet. My bad!
I'll get in on the next one then....

how many satoshis it is?
1 mBTC or mbit or millibitcoin = 0.001 bitcoin = 100,000 satoshi I was gonna ask about this too. There are some folks out there who keep suggesting that one "bit" is equal to 0.000001BTC. Then I see this thing that says mbit and I start asking, is he using the "bit" thing or does he mean mBTC?

Sure, there's the "getting your name out there" part of advertising, but there's also the "we're still here and doing good" part. I imagine that when people want to throw some dice, if they don't do it all the time, they're thinking "ok, who's the nicest dice house currently?". I know I was thinking something similar about sports betting recently. There's a lot of turnover in bitcoin businesses so the place where you played last year might not be around or might not be your best option anymore. Keeping your name out there in an ad campaign lets folks know that you're still going and still ruling.
