Dude, you can't use one day sample as measurement unless someone deploys 100 THs over night.

calm down it was ironic!

I'm quite calm, but informative.

Good trolling.

I expect a hash rate of 40,000+ GH/s next month.

OP says QFN.

Huh... 14th, then the 19th, now it's the 21st? 

Interesting...

You get very little irony in your diet, true...?

It's not irony when I'm pointing out that they are doing the exact same thing they have been vilifying us for.  So, yeah, I guess it's irony, but not on my part.

BitSyncom: We are shipping on the 14th! BFL you keep pushing your date back, it is dishonest to push your date back!
BitSyncom: We are shipping on the 19th! BFL you keep pushing your date back, you suck because you keep missing your date!
BitSyncom: We are shipping on the 21st! BFL you keep pushing your date back, we've only pushed it back two days!

I guess we'll see in another 7 days.  Irony indeed.

When Avalon is 4 months past their initial delivery date (Feb '13), then you can say that. Until then, shut up.

[MrTeal]

Does the countdown not agree with their original delay?

Updating as promised,

Let's be frank. We ran into a potential delay of 4-7 days.

What does this mean?

We when taped out the chips to TSMC we had a "projected out date" of Jan 3, 2013 which is on schedule with our late dec. / early jan. demonstration dates. Now however after this week's website update our "projected out date" has changed to Jan 7th, 2013 and "committed date" has been revealed to be Jan 10th, 2013. TSMC did not give us a reason for this, but as a small customer you are really at the mercy of bigger customers running higher priority lots. e.g. "super hot lot"  The "committed date" is the promised date of delivery, it is very unusual for TSMC to break their "committed date", so we expect our chips to ship on or before Jan 10th, 2013.

Another potential problem is Customs clearing, the packaging company Fujitsu is located in Shanghai's Export Processing Zone (EPZ), while the packaging itself will not see delays, it may take an additional 2-3 days to clear Customs. To make up for this, if it occurs, we will be flying down to Shanghai to the demonstration in the EPZ instead of waiting for the shipping to the factory for assembly.

With all this happening, it has burned through the 1 week additional leeway time we originally left out. I must say it will be difficulty for us to ship on Jan 14th, we however expect to ship around Jan 18 ~ 20.

The clock looks to be hitting 00:00 at 7am on the 20th in my time zone (CST)

unless you're as stupid as the shit you spew out your mouth fingers..
i think there's a difference between missing a couple of days and a couple of months, time-wise.

hell, they even haven't passed the delivery date.

That is not the ironic fact i was refering to tho.
There is a difference between a few days and a few months as you may know.
The irony in this case is that you do way way worse then the people you are so eager to accuse.
And they at least have the decency to inform their customers/investors beforehand and not a few days after the fact.

(This is of course completely besides the point that there is also irony in avalon getting delayed.)

[cedivad]

Come on guys, let's stop trolling.

We will see in a matter of days, i have mine "20 of January speculation deadline" and than this. It's gonna be a funny time.

The most ironic thing of all is that no-one understands his tactics. He already knew before he penned his troll-post that his company is more incompetent and deceitful when it comes to their delivery schedule, that was the bait. Which you took.  If he could patent this trolling manoeuvre (which is actually as old as the beginning of time), he'd have earned alot of royalties using it on this forum, as it's one of the few trolling techniques he has he uses posting from his own account.

...Josh? Is that you in there? You've not taken to trolling your own troll accounts to keep the "debate" moving, surely? Things will improve you know, you might even get ASICs before the end of next month (just be sure you're first in line on that 2nd batch of Avalons!)
