After a long debate, I've decided to drink whatever is at hand and follow-up with vigorous exercise to sweat the malady out:

My drinking plan:

RM1600B: 2
W1600M : 20
W1600B  : 5
W1602F  : 2
W1602    : 5
W1603    : 5
W1603A  : 15
W1604    : 99

Hopefully, after some good exercise, any remnants of plague will be be cast back to the fires of their maker.

I was working on the plans for the lot in the center of borough 9 when the news of my promotion reached me--I would have rather been playing tennis on the tennis court dedicated to HM, but there's a plague to think of. I am honored by the promotion and hope to fulfill the duties of my station with the care and dignity befitting a nobleman.

Think flawed, stay flawed. 

The same mentality that fools people into believing the investment promise over the investment reality is the same one that allows a moderately attractive forty something to be catfished by a con artist pretending to be a multimillionaire-model-CEO who spends his weekends in the Sudan rescuing puppies. People in general are pretty smart, but we (at least most of us) have a tendency to accept stupid ideas with little to no correlation to objective reality because we are caught in the undertow of an emotionally-derived belief. 

No stats on ginger? I try to eat a few ounces a day. Cheap and my body loves it   

I'm not sure you get that people who can use command line supporting Monero is a good thing. A coin whose support base is a bunch of ignorant, greedy, and technically inept blow-hards, is not.

By the way, Illodin, check the text under my avatar; that's the qualifications for an e-cash and dash doesn't meet any of them.

And Evan, aren't you going comment on x-11's flaws? Someone went to the trouble of pointing them out for you, at least you could acknowledge the effort.

Sorry if pointing out the flaws in your leadership and design get in the way of your narrative. But I'm here to support an honest attempt at digital cash. I know why you're here and that's why I'm not letting you off the hook for the instamine or the strategic blunder of not relaunching.

 

I get what you're saying. I was thinking of my friends who want to play the game, but know nothing of crypto, nor do any banking outside of their debit card.  

Made two vote changes to noms' list. Automated deposit/withdrawals first and building designer fifth (though I want to make this first, because i can't wait to build this way! But I know there are more important core features.   )

•    Automated deposits/withdrawals (new players unfamiliar with BCT or trusted admin might be leery of depositing money into the game if there are delays in deposits and withdrawals reported via social media)   
•    New Player Registration + Tutorial (else there is none, meaning no new players!)   
•    API (includes all tools for programmers to make stuff that interacts with the game)   
•    Agora Marketplace - Matching Exchange System for Items & Lots (if we assume that otherwise the full-fledged matching is not active, and trades can be done directly via commands)   
•    Graphical Building Designer - Build with Voxels, costs and data are entered automatically (depending on admins and architects for design is a poor substitute for the minecraftlike-fun of build-pay-yours design
•    Game Event History / Transaction History - Handy view to see what has happened in your account (compared to no such possibility)   
•    Logistics script to calculate traffic and desirability of lots (a great addition to value the rentals based on "actual" traffic flows determined by where people live and walk and desire to eat)   
•    More Realistic Building Payout Script w/choices (otherwise the scripts stays exploitable, and you have no choices over the use of your buildings)   
•    Business - Building - NPC interaction (this needs to be enabled to get back the economic subgames that were in use in 1550-1599 <- note in our history of almost a year, they were in use for 1.5 months only   )   
•    Building View - View and Edit Building Data (otherwise the /BLDG tab will stay in GoogleDB even if the rest migrates, because of usability)   
•    Duty Paid - Shop for every possible item to be created from IC (otherwise the creation will happen via admin commands upon char request, with most items just not being created except by admins themselves)   
•    Other "core" economic subgames   
• These should happen in concurrent development by a second developer perhaps
  
  •    Chapelry view new layer "bird's eye" shows the "satellite" image of the area (else only the 3 different block image layers are available)   
  •    Chapelry view new layer "dissect" shows the view at the chosen elevation (3D building db is needed here)   
  •    3D first-person street view   
  •    3D bird's eye view   

•    Health Challenge - To make individual drinking/health choices possible (otherwise drinking will be some script with very little control by the char, as it has been now)   
•    Halls of Fame - See the Best Performers in Multiple Challenges (otherwise such listings are not visible, cf. /CHAR tab)   

Count me in.

Another assumption.

I know you prefer to be a dumbass. 

I assume the guys who instamined 1.5 million coins in two days are disingenuous and the lack of proof of fair distribution means that i have to trust them in order to assume the distribution is spread out enough to be decentralized. Excuse me if i find this scenario laughable, naive, chimerical or stupid.

Yes, this would be a fantastic idea if dash wasn't an oligarchy of instaminers.

Had to call on an expert to answer this precisely. But here you go.

"If any one of the hashes in the chain of 11 hashes has a lower entropy then the entire chain does. Say you found this vulnerability and didn't announce it. Instead you could use it to amplify your hashrate. With that you could take unfair levels of mining rewards, or potentially launch double-spend attacks.

Fixing it after the fact also probably means the inability to unwind the damage already done if it had gone on a long time undetected.

So 11 hashes is 11 times more likely to have a vulnerability than 1 hash."

I think the more privacy tools the better. Who wants to play chess with all knights?

"Our coin was instamined but it's ok to advertise NO PREMINE" is the type of semantic niggling that leads me to believe little to none of the dash defenders has an inkling of fairness in advertising. Sure it's true that high fructose corn syrup isn't sugar, but I'm certainly going to call bullshit on any company who has this additive in their products and puts "sugar free" on their labels. The reason is that the consumers who are most concerned about avoiding sugar calories are most likely the same ones who are looking to avoid corn syrup. Dash's advertising "no premine' gives the same impression to consumers who are most likely looking for a product that didn't reward itself dishonestly or accidentally. The fact that dash advertises "no premine" and then tries to hide the intsamine facts by burying it in their literature goes to show the community is aware of the bad perception it gives and that a few people would not buy the coin if they knew the truth. I'm amazed that Evan has come out of hiding to acknowledge it--though his defense is the standard, "but everyone does it," which is the cliche answer of those who got caught but aren't apologetic.

As for masternodes, you're an idiot if you think human dependency belongs in a cryptocurrency when it doesn't have to be there. These systems were designed to take as much error and greed out of the hands of humans as possible. A system that willingly incorporates it into their design, and especially a design for privacy, is begging for that system to break--whether this is added out of ignorance, stupidity, arrogance,  greed or another "accident" is beyond me. All I know is that it doesn't belong there.

Dash defamed itself. I'm merely pointing out the facts. Either it was instasmined by accident and the dev should have rescinded the launch to avoid later criticism or it was a sham launch to line his pockets. You can blame you dev for that, not me. And I will continue to point it out as long as the dash literature says "no premine."

As for dash's masternode system with its human points of failure, this system will garner the attention of authorities who can break it if the market cap ever gets big enough to matter. I intend for people to know all the flaws of your coin and make certain that a system that is flawed and gives people a false sense of security/privacy never lives long enough to reach that ignominious day. My motivation is to call the fraud for what it is and make certain that a good privacy coin takes its rightful place. If you have a problem with that, pick  another coin to shill.

Because they don't claim to be private, and if you look at my sig and my post history, you'll see that is my interest. It's sad that the leading market cap in privacy is a coin that depends on a hackneyed crypto system and a dev who is either a liar or shows poor long term planning. One of the cryptonote coins that launched fairly should be #1 (XMR, AEON, BBR), until a better privacy system is achieved (zerocash, quantum money...). It shows that some in the community are banking on public ignorance or are ignorant themselves of what makes a good privacy coin.

If you are fine with a man in leadership who is either lying/misleading you about the instamine or didn't have the foresight to see that the instamine would haunt the community and a relaunch would be a simple and efficient means to avoid the situation permanently, then good for you. I just want those who aren't aware of the situation to have all the facts before they invest their money in what is either bad or worse management.

You're missing the point. If you want legitimacy as a coin without having to explain why the instamine doesn't matter, you relaunch the coin. I don't care if you relaunch dash or not. Masternodes are a ridiculous privacy system and that's enough to keep me out.

The second launch was broken and not fair (~1.5 million coins in 48 hours), so you should have relaunched if you wanted to avoid the conversation we are having right now. Again, either you are lying or couldn't see an obvious pitfall (and i'm being generous with pitfall as some would say impossible gorge) on the road to legitimacy.

As for what you plan meeting reality and mashing algos together being good crypto, we'll have to agree to disagree.
