It seems apparent that the majority of people here used the Notify feature and want it back.
I never used it for exchange/margin trade orders myself but I always used it on active swaps. Always.
It sure looks like most people want it back. Perhaps we should start a separate thread here with one of those vote things to see how many want it back?
2nd that! And while we are being all democratic, how a vote on the swap rate going up? I never insured nor do I want to be forced to pay a higher fee for insurance. wtf?

400 coins? Damn. I was happy to get 30. Hahaha...
Yeah no kidding. I banked 100 which is insane as it is.... could of done more but didn't want to sit here all night in front of my box. By the looks of things seems like more people are getting on the right chain. And what happened to BGB??? BGB already killed 7 of my generals in the passed 10 hours... it's alive and getting more stronger. watch out.. lol ok. I would of been very surprised if he buggered off at this point.

How many people are still mining this? I tried it again today after a long pause and it's incredibly easy. At current difficulty you'd get a few % of total coins in a day with just a couple of GPUs. It's such a shame to see this coin dying, I think it's got a great theme and it seems to be better techically made than most coins that come out today. Plus it probably negatively affects the worms Is there anyone willing/able to make a faucet or something else to promote spice? Good opportunity yes, but what the hell are you gonna do with em? This coin needs an enema!

Good post sir! One little thing to sudo factor in is the possibility of achieving ROI by dumping used hardware on ebay etc which was the reason I made profit on my BFL jalapeno.
Assuming "the greater fool theory" will work into your favor is only good for so long. Not an easy exit for someone ordering now and not getting the miner for 2 months or 3 or 6? Well that and a little "One mans trash is another mans treasure" and sure the hell not talking about selling it for the full cost. And I guess it would also greatly depend on the hardware in question. Personally, after my own experience with BFL (and I was a lucky one who actually got my jala in a 'reasonable' amount of time) I sure wont preorder any miners ever again. I would rather not mine then to go through that again and my jala only cost 260... can't imagine dumping 10k... those bastards are lucky they have not been lynched.

I didn't see anyone react on AnonyMint post (see quote below, original post on page 89), I'm not tech savvy enough in crypto to have a opinion on this, @keccak512 can we have the dev team point of view? Thanks. Someone private messaged me to check out HeavyCoin. Sorry I realize this post will make people angry at me. I am usually the messenger who brings technical reality which is usually bad news because most coin developers are not competent. Innovations and contributions
- HEFTY1 - a cryptographic hash function for CPU-only proof-of-work with a small memory footprint
Insufficient technical details. From what I read about their claim of SIMD as an issue. I think they fail to understand the nature of the GPU advantage. - Ultra-secure hashing - a secure strategy for using multiple cryptographic hash functions
From the Github page: Q: Doesn't Quarkcoin already implement multiple cryptographic hash functions?
A: Yes, but without increasing security against collisions. Quarkcoin (and its many clones) actually implement multiple hash functions as a simple chain of function compositions Quark(x) = ... SKEIN512(KECCAK512( ... BMW512(BLAKE512(x))))
where ... contains additional hash function compositions using JH-512, Keccak-512, BMW-512, BLAKE-512, SKEIN-512 or Grĝestl-512, which are randomly selected based on the 4th bit of previous hash outputs.
The problem is that, due to Quarkcoin's simple use of function compositions, if BLAKE512(x) has collisions, then so does BMW512(BLAKE512(x)) and SKEIN512(KECCAK512(... and so on, until we reach Quark(x), which also has collisions. Similarly, if SKEIN-512 or Grĝestl-512 have collisions, then so does Quark(x). Simply put, if there's a collision attack or second-preimage attack for BLAKE-512(x), then Quark(x) is cracked. Bullshit. Changing even one input bit to a hash should randomize all the output bits. Cracking any combinations of the hashes in the chain of hashes does not increase the risk of collisions for those in the chain that were not cracked. This kind of silly mistake proves the developers are technically incompetent. Whereas their "improvement" is worse in the sense that it takes 3 cracks to make it very insecure and 2 cracks to make it perhaps insecure, whereas with Quark it takes 4 cracks. Q: How does Heavycoin implement multiple cryptographic hash functions?
A: Heavycoin takes 64 bits from the output of each of 4 well-known cryptographic hash functions (SHA-256, Keccak-512, Grĝestl-512 and BLAKE-512) and interleaves these bits into a combined 256-bit hash that is more resistant against collisions and second-preimage attacks. Hope you realize that 2^64 is crackable with a server farm. If 3 of the 4 are cracked, then the 4th is useless in Heavy's design. - Temporal Retargeting - multipool protection that goes beyond Kimoto Gravity Well
- Decentralized Block Reward Voting - the mining schedule and money supply are democratically decided (total supply is still bounded to 128M)
Oh great let the early investors decide to make coins even more rare. This will be a very good experiment to show why democracy is a power vacuum. I Wouldn't worry too much about anonymint. He comes into every thread like some kind of genius savant, without actually being able to fix anything. That doesn't mean some, if not all of his points are valid.

Send it to me, I will kick you in the balls, and we call it a day.
Maybe start off small with a GPU rig while the scene figures out whats gonna happen with the scrypt ASIC's that are loose in the wild.
