Pending payment
love it!
My thoughts as we are awaiting our rewards and ranking from the bancor ico are this.
The terms of the crowdsale were that the sale would last for 1 hour minimum with a hidden "emergency hard cap" in case the amount of Eth sent to the contract got out of control. This was to allow everyone who wanted in to get in.
For those that continued their research until the closing hours learned that the emergency hard cap was 1M Eth.
8 Wings members forecasted the 1M emergency hard cap would be reached in the first hour, and had the network been able to handle all the transactions they might have been correct.
Those who forecasted much much lower, way below how much was actually raised are probably sad that the ico wasn't ended after the first hour as the terms of the ICO stated.
Would it have been fair? I don't believe so, I don't think anyone made calculations in their prediction to account for the network not being able to handle the massive amount of transactions.
The problem is, I don't know what is fair, after all this first reward that were all waiting on is more than just about out rewards, it's also about out rating which affects future rewards to some degree.
So this is just a suggestion, but maybe their should be three separate reward/ranking contracts made to settle our first forecasting event.
1. Based on how much Eth actually cleared in the first hour.
2. Based on how much did the sale actually raise.
3. Based on the total amount of Eth that was sent during the first hour that couldn't make it into the crowdsale due to congestion.
Just my .02¢
