I know this is a little off topic but can anyone tell me what is on grnbg's head in that photo he has in all his posts on the BFL site?

Du-Rag!

I know that, but is it just me or does it look like R2 D2? 

R2D2  Wink
are you correcting my spelling or telling me I am not insane and this BFL cheering canuck has a beanie on his head to make him look like R2D2?

You're not insane, I think it's R2D2
I cannot wait for the court tv testimony if this turns out to be fraud.
"but even after waiting a year of being told your order would ship next month, you still kept waiting and you actually bought more with "coupons" you were given"
"Yes, because it was not just them telling me this was a real money printing machine but also grnbrg"
"Grnbrg?  You mean the grown man from Canada with the R2D2 head?"

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

bitbet.us had almost the same bet and it was not a "push".
http://bitbet.us/bet/265/bfl-will-deliver-asic-devices-before-april-1st/
Turns out bitbet.us may actually be in the wrong here! My Little Single is getting 29.4 Gh/s with a firmware update.
In their defense, the bet could be argued to require +/- 10% as delivered (eg, disqualifying firmware updates), but if this performance issue had merely been my software, they'd have defrauded people...

I think you are over complicating it..... The bet has got nothing to do with performance as BFL themselves say on their website that their asic devices are in the final production stage and that delivery is scheduled to start in the second half of April.....

So there has been no delivery of asic devices by BFL yet.... Not to you and not to anyone else....

So the answer to that particular bet is NO

you sure say some stupid things.  You may have a unit, but the bet was for BFL to ship out units to customers.  Which they failed to do..

This. The bet says "will deliver ASIC Bitcoin mining devices to their customers", NOT "a customer" thus implying plurality. Having one unit shipped to one customer does not logically satisfy the conditions of the bet.

You're right. While it's just one character, it does make an important difference.
Delivery to one customer certainly isn't "customers" no matter how accurate the rest.
I take back what I said.

Now only if you could see your way to talking back what you have done and said about the other bet we'd all feel a bit better wouldn't we? Fucking tard.

Be glad it's just the R2D2 hat you're seeing. You COULD be seeing the man in his underoos. I did. Ain't pretty. No Sir.

"I want to clarify the above post, as there is some potential confusion. We are not shipping yet. We plan on shipping possibly by the end of next week, but I will update on a shipping schedule as soon as I have more definitive information with regards to that."

Really, what's the matter? BFL says they are not shipping.

Yes, this has been quoted many times now but I felt like quoting it again.

They did not ship/deliver, Luke_Jr already admitted that on 3rd April (below)

Like I said, I'll probably have them ship it to me when the rest of my order is ready to go as well. I certainly prefer they NOT ship it until at least the next difficulty adjustment Wink

Luke-Jr told me on IRC last night that since BFL offered to ship him his unit, but kindly agreed to keep it in their warehouse and send him pictures instead, that the unit still qualifies as being "shipped" to him. He wished people would stop "slandering" him by saying the unit hadn't shipped. Roll Eyes
