[the founder]

Dear Mr. Vernon,

We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it is that we did wrong. But we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us: in the simplest terms and the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is . . .
a brain.
And an athlete.
And a basket case.
A princess.
And a criminal.

Does that answer your question?

Sincerely yours,
The Breakfast Club.

PS:  call it

Bitcoin ASICs Reward Bounty And Reserve Alternative

BFGMiner (St. Barbara's FPGA/GPU Miner) 3.0 will be featuring and refocussing on ASICs.
Therefore, the original name no longer really fits anymore.

Since I can't think of any obvious fit, I've decided to have a little contest to see if anyone can come up with a new name for it.
Bonus points if you can make it elegantly fit the current "BFGMiner" abbreviation-name by simply redefining "F" and "G". Smiley

If I use your suggestion, there will be a Bitcoin reward.
The exact amount will be based on how good I think it works, but probably 200 - 600 TBC (about 0.33 - 1 BTC).
