I hope to recoup the price only. I support BFL.

I would never make anyone pay for postage. That's totally boring. This thing is supposed to be fun.

Mine cost me $650 (shipping to Korea isn't cheap) because I got in late I guess. I heard some others got one for $500 and less. I don't know if that's true.



Definitely! Next time though, Mihai has instructed me to do it through the Bitcoin Magazine as a giveaway of sorts for involvement etc. We'll see what we come up with. I have my own crazy ideas, but everyone around me has their own too, and I don't always talk to them before I jump the forums and do crazy shit.



Lol. Of course I exist.

I lawled for truth.

Hah!

Yea, I've been in Korea 7 years now. Started out my first year working at some schools and then got so sick of the backwards education system here that I decided to start my own small international school. We had about 200 students go through our school but after three years of fighting the Korean system, we learned that our entire curricular concepts (although standard in America) are still 10 years too early in Korea.

Ironically, since closing, I've already seen copycat schools opening up and universities are starting to do what we were doing too.

It has been a wild ride though. Here's some random colorful photos of me and some of my students when I owned the school (유치부부터 대학부있었지만, 초등학생들 재일많았어요.). There are thousands so I just picked the ones that seemed the most interesting. (last pic is from one of the airlines I partnered with for English testing)

It was only a matter of time before we got groups going on this forum, but I haven't seen anyone yet make a move so in the spirit of SA forums, I'll start the first one.

Everyone who pledges to:

• Always use an animated GIF as an avatar
• Never change their avatar unless it's for an equally or more funny animated GIF avatar
• Change their title to "Horse Kisses for all".

...may join this group and participate in the fun.

This elite group of the fun, free-spirited members of this forum will shine through the droll and boring "old-man" representation on this forum and show that regardless of your age, you can still have fun with what you do and be expressive too.

Let the detracting commence!

Can she knit you a dictionary?

I would think that the same rules apply to US Citizens doing drugs in other countries where it's not illegal.

Loving it.

You can ignore people based on their avatars?  Or did you mean the zebra? 

Anyway, updated avatar to something more appropriate.

Make it reinstall windows whenever I push it and you've got yourself a customer.

I'd coach them on delivery of their products and work with them on their business until a point they were profitable. That's what I do for a living right now.

You've already been recommended to mine something -other- than Bitcoins and sell them to idiots who think they are valuable.

PM me with your name, address, phone number, then video call me on Skype and show me your identification, including birth certificate, tax returns, and federal or state issued ID as well as passport, wait 10 days for a coded letter and take a picture of the mailman delivering that letter to your house having him present his national identification and proof of employment, then show the contents of that letter confirming address, provide a notorized bank statement and credit report as well as criminal background check,making sure all copies are apostiled,

or

create a service people actually give a shit about.

The address is an easter egg/joke and doesn't matter.

Wow. Just wow.



You must be new here.

You don't need a mod for that. I can move it myself. Where would you like it?

Nope.

Nope.

U jelly?

Yes of course. The spreadsheet we will receive from Bit-Pay 7 days from now will be converted into raffle tickets based on credits for raffle tickets held by the email address owners who have purchased or earned credits through Bitcoin deposits or referrals.

At that time, I will release the actual ticket list, omitting the winner's email addresses and an independent party can run the list if they like. This is up to the community, I couldn't care less who does it so long as the math works and it's fair.

Edited for clarity:

The spreadsheet we have from bit-pay right now does not reflect tickets, it reflects credits to buy tickets. We need to convert those purchases into tickets at the end of the raffle (because the amount of tickets can increase based off of referrals).

Then all standard raffle rules will apply, and DeepCeleron can even handle the rules for randomizing it himself if he'd like.

Just to clear the air of future naysayers:

At 09:25:29 AM, another user by the name of DBordello had mentioned the potential for the title to be misconstrued and the issue was resolved within minutes. The topic was changed to "raffle" to make it absolutely clear what was being offered.

At that time there had been 0 participation in the raffle from the community so there can be no arguments of deposits made under false pretenses.

Ferroh's post was at 11:14:00AM complaining about a title that then didn't exist, barking about his disagreement with raffles and mislabeling it a "Ponzi" scheme, then later retracting it, and blaming the entire community for "supporting ponzi schemes" due to their support for this honest raffle for a Bitforce Single.

So far everything he has based his 'points' on, he himself has since retracted. So I just have to ask..

U mad bro?

It was a slow morning in Korea. Too late to turn back now though.

Oh, you mean a raffle?


The winner will be stealing it as far as I'm concerned. This wording issue was already brought up and addressed immediately.
