Today i sent more than one transaction with 0.0002 btc fee and it was confirmed on next block. I don't see a big problem with that, the bigger group of unconfirmed transactions had a low or a very low fee.
Perhaps you were just lucky getting your fee through when you did. Ive not tried sending any myself but by looking at the backlog you would need to put quite a large fee to get confirmed.
fee of .0002 or whatever is actually kind of vague without knowing the transaction size. for all we know he sent a 225 byte tx and/or have over 57,600,000 priority. if his tx meets one of these criteria then it shouldn't take very long to confirm.
Sorry i forgot to write the size of the trasnsactions, first transaction was 258 bytes and the other was 257 bytes. Could be that i had luck, but i supposed that other transactions had lower fees (there was more than 25.000 transactions unconfirmed when i sent).
