I have started doing it, but haven't been able to dedicate enough time. Basically need to debug why I get no responses from the seed nodes at this point. Is there anyone that can provide me with a quick tl;dr of the differences between bitcoin and namecoin in terms of communication protocol between peers and wallet format?

What would rebasing namecoin daemon onto the latest bitcoin encompass? I could really use some of the updated RPC calls, and it feels like it would be very beneficial for everyone to be able to follow bitcoin development closely.
I tried a simple half baked hackish thing with getting the ports changed, the genesis block and the address version to what namecoin has over bitcoin's git head, but I can't get responses from peers (yes, I added namecoin ones using addnode) so I'm assuming there are more changes to the communication protocol.
And would it be possible to do this in two steps? First without dealing with namecoin specific features but only wallet and communications, and adding the NS stuff later on?
Finally... time for a bounty?

Well, no movement at all. I will be canceling this raffle soon and bets will be refunded. Speak up if you have bets placed and prefer that I place all remaining bets. The latter approach will almost certainly make you lose your bets but there is a chance you'll get the FPGAs, whereas the former one will give you back your bet but you can't win anything.
I'm giving this at least 8 hours before I pull the plug.

Quando comecei nisto dos bitcoins eles eram vendidos a $0.06, e um CPU maneirinho encontrava varios blocos por dia. Quando atingiu $1 foi um momento muito excitante, dificil de acreditar até. Em 2011, quando tocou nos $30 e depois caiu para $2 o fim foi anunciado vezes sem conta mas a verdade é que, independentemente do preço, os BTC não tem concorrência, não há, neste momento, outra coisa igual e isso só por si faz com que eu esteja aqui para ficar. Claro que me "arrependo" de ter comprado coisas com BTCs, afinal se tivesse guardado tinha agora uma reforma multimilionaria, em vez de ter de continuar a trabalhar para pagar as minhas contas. Mas a verdade é que acredito que se os BTC tivessem ficado nos "bolsos" daqueles que como eu já tiveram dezenas de milhares isto nunca tinha dado em nada. É preciso usar, comprar, vender, trocar, pois só assim tem utilidade. E que utilidade, né?  |

Well, it can't stay where it is and expect value to rise. I'm not sure miners are forcing the fee schedule or it's just the default clients, but if the latter it should be very simple to do.

I have a really good felling I'm going to win this.
As in, all the bets so far are yours? Well, best of luck and thank you for indulging us with your wagers! |

Minimum number of bets to unlock the raffle lowered to half of what it was, now 50.
If at least half of that isn't covered at this week's end I'll either cancel the raffle and return the bets or, if the number of bets is above 12, place all needed bets myself to unlock the raffle to give bettors a fair chance of winning still.

Bump for "not a single bet yet?"
Is the deal not attractive enough?

What's the price on the eagles?
BTC0.01 higher than the maples. You can order them with the same procedure, just add the premium and indicate it in the PM, thank you. Is shipping still 0.5? I know you gave me a discount last time but given the current exchange rate, I feel the need to ask for another one EDIT: I see you say 0.3 in the OP, but then say 0.5. Anyway, how low can you go? |

Also TAABL.net has raffles that are provably fair and handle reserve price nicely. Drop me a PM if interested.

Yeah, that was likely a side effect of miners failing to see the notice about the mandatory upgrade before block 10k... I know I missed it and while not mining all my TRC services got stuck.
I need to pay more attention!

And now also for LTC, at 0.5 per bet, all other rules as above!

Particulars to this BitPick; - This is a Pick 4 game - Bet amount is BTC 0.01 - No minimum number of bets to unlock the raffle! - Shipping to non-exotic places included, but if the post office frowns upon your country as destination or asks for a huge premium, you'll have to pay extra. If in doubt, ask first. - Shipping is from Europe, tracking is provided but not insurance. If it gets lost, it gets lost. If you want insurance I'll be happy to comply, so as long as you cover the cost. and... good luck! --- Maples bought from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=151800.0 (thanks rpietila!) Don't forget to check the other TAABL BitPick raffles |

No takers? Any issues or complaints? Probably the main issue is how long is going to take to get 100 takers? Why are you selling it anyway? 1 GHs should be giving you around $600 per month, no? It is certainly going to take a long time if noone jumps in I'm not selling it, I'm raffling it, and the main reason is to draw some attention to TAABL, which is my site, and more specifically to the raffle games. Where did you get the $600 figure? Even with BTC price sky high it's about half of that. |

This game is not getting the love I expected it to get  But here's another bump, anyway. |
|
|
|
As long as mining is profitable there will always be someone willing to sell quicker for less... it's called free market, I think  |
