There is no spreadsheet created by btcat, the one existing is by laikuf, one of the participants of this campaign.
Furthermore, it seems to be incomplete/partly incorrect to me.
Have a look yourself: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15Q88quCnhK-ZjKrL70C1uaGOJ4iqq7cd3EUzVr_l6qY/edit#gid=0

Since BTCat seems to avoid doing what he was hired/paid for, notaek has asked me to make the post count/payment calculations, which I will start with right now.
As he will be paying the amounts from his own pocket, we agreed that it would be better to have the payment calculations made by a 3rd party (me in this case).
Due to the fact that I wasn't involved with this campaign in any way, this might take some more time than usually.

I'd like to empathize that I am in no way affiliated with Ophion, BTCat and notaek,
I'm doing this as a favor for notaek and because I want to see the participants paid aswell.

I'll keep you updated.

According to the PMs we've exchanged, notaek is ready to provide the needed funds out of his pocket, not immediately, but over time and in increments.

For doing so, he needs to have the payment information, thats btc addresses and the according amounts.
It doesnt fall in his responsibility to collect those, it's your job to do as a campaign manager.
Paying the maximum possible 0.025 to everyone you accepted without checking posts and with this being a pay per post campaign, doesn't seem fair to him.
'Id suggest you pick up on the job you were hired to do and collect/submit that information for him.

Wouldn't that put me in the same situation? (If none told you yet, I manage signature campaigns myself.)
Yet I am, and will continue to, talk right here about right this.

Which would make me as stupid as him, I guess.

Btw, you made a little typo in your avatar over there.
The guy is called "notaek" not "noteak".

No, I'm not. You may believe me there or you may not, either way, I can honestly say I do not enjoy this.
While there is a little competition amongst signature campaign managers (obviously), I also tend to maintain good relations with some of them.
Notaek is one example, I've initially suggested him to the admins of NakedBitcoins, which led to him running their campaign.
Another example would be SFR10, who is in my campaign for a long time now, and who I value on a personal level.
Yahoo I had my run-ins with, but I don't hold any grudge against him (and I hope neither does he).

I've also read the PMs we both exchanged afterwards.
All I'm saying is that I want to give him a chance to come clean with everything.
He might just yet have realized how big a mess he is in.

I tend to think of myself as a person with integrity, which is a core value to me aswell.

I'm currently waiting on BTCat to come forward and join the discussion over here.
I've contacted notaek via PM (right after he posted that email) and from my judgement, he doesn't seem like a scammer,
but rather like a guy who did a big mistake and is now trying to sort out the aftermath.

I've been asked for (/and offered) my help with that, but more regarding this later.
Based on all the above, I don't think it's necessary to issue a negative feedback on notaek (yet), others might disagree though.

With more twitter campaigns coming up, users saw the potential of having high follower twitter accounts for the sake of advertsing with those in said campaigns.
Initially, this led to the farming of twitter accounts, especailly cut down to the taks of performing (/earning) well in the campaigns.
While this might seem like a good idea from a users perspective in the beginning, it drastically lowered the effectivity of the advertising method, which led us to the situation we are in right now.

Notaek made a mistake here, which I think he by now is aware of.
However, he also seems to be ready trying to fix that mistake and work things out.

I'd at least give him the chance to react and do what he plans to before joining in together and bashing him to the ground (which will help no-one right now).

Don't take this out on the wrong peoples back/generalize, please.

I believe notaek made a mistake here.

As an escrow, he's supposed to act as a 3rd party between the runners and the participants of a signature campaign.
That's the job he was hired for, and that should be the base of his decisions.
Based on that, he's obligated to review both sides and in case of a dispute make a decision on how to proceed.
(The reason users are more eager to join escrowed signature campaigns is, that there is a sort of second safety net in case the runners don't come through with what they offered.)
Notaek failed to see his responsibility towards the participants, and acted rash when repaying the escrowed amount to the runners.

Yes.

I think it's a hint at the (possibly huge) amount of various coins being teased/presented/sold currently,
not one at the numbers of coins minted for this specific series.

There are sites for that purpose, archive.is being one of the most populare ones.

How long the page will be stored?
Virtually forever. We have a lot of free space and alhough the archive grows with time, the storage and bandwidth get cheaper.
(From their FAQ.)

I'd like to make a suggestion to all participants in this campaign:
Stop advertising them, immediately.
(Yes, even though the site is down at the moment, doesn't really matter.)

You can make a post in this thread, then archive it or just post an archived version of your profile page (archive.is).
That way, when deciding the payouts, notaek and BTCat both can see that you were wearing the signature for the full time of the campaign.
After that, remove them from your signature.

Yes, it is. That's why they were entrusted with the money, to make a decision, as 3rd party, in case something goes wrong (like it seems to go here right now).
Ofc notaek should pay the participants, which I'm sure he will.

Basically, yep.

People shouldn't count their posts themselves, that's only bringing up more problems than solutions.
It's the escrows job to distribute the funds entrusted with them in such cases.
Either they get a report from the signature campaign manager about whom to pay what sum, or it's aswell in their responsibility to determine that themselves.

From knowing notaek some time now, and from the fact that he runs signature campaigns himself as a manager, I think he will either way be abled to make the right decision about distributing the funds.

We've seen campaigns with no escrows run perfectly well, and we've seen escrowed campaigns going down in chaos.
Both things have happened, and both things will happen again.
It's good for a new campaign/project to have an escrow set up, but there are arguments for both sides, and sometimes, escrows aren't necessary.

From how I understand this situation, there won't be a new manager, since the project got abandoned.
Since the current manager is a hired one (not part of the project itself), he should be completing his job.
If that doesn't happen to be the case, notaek is abled to do it himself.

If the service is still releveant, rather than creating a new (additional) thread about it, bumping it is the better option.
Necro bumps are only then a problem, when the topic at hand is already sorted out or irrelevant due to some other factor.

No.

There's OneHash.com aswell.

Oh, we have to do that now? Well, it's me neither.
I might agree with OP, but would have to have a closer look at Gianluca95s post history.
(One thing I can say for sure: His alt is spammy for sure.)

Possibly because they don't care. But we will see how the campaigns under his management continue.

That would have been nice, though.
A few examples from their post history to underline the argument made by OP.
(And yes, you could take being banned for spamming as proof enough, but having examples is always better.)

From having faced a [farfetched] similar situation (for those who want to look it up, MisterMiyagi about mexxers/my position on DT2), I can say it doesn't really make that big a difference.
Although I found out about the person behind the account at one point, which was relieving to know (the situation cleared up at that point anyway).

First thing I have been thinking about when reading that "news" was [^GDAXI] (German DAX Index),
which doesn't make the name any better than thinking of GOX, to be honest.

Yes, we somehow did. I was inactive for a while and so seems whywefight.
I don't have access to TheLedger currently, but I will try to update everything over the weekend,
if you could all check what has to be changed, that would be a great help.

Lastly, there would be one of mine to add:
