It's a tactic carried over from Josh's Bullshido days.
Now isn't that amazing. Know who else was deeply entrenched in rec.martial-arts and bullshido back in the day? Oliver "usagi" Richman. I suppose it isn't that surprising BFL and its associates are basically a bunch of trolls, assholes and Internet Tough Guys.

It's a tactic carried over from Josh's Bullshido days. An excellent read: http://www.uswebpros.com/?Martial_Art_Investigation_Website_Bullshido_May_Host_Fake_Postings_1246&a=49200Why, you may ask would a martial art website be in the business of harming other martial arts and their respective teachers? The answer is two fold. One the more salacious and the more profanity the more attention the posts get. [/quote] You are about 2 months behind me. When I first decided I needed a few minirigs or their equivalent in real world machines, I searched and found this (and the thread here where Josh called some critic, WHO WAS TELLING HIM THE TRUTH ABOUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH HIS ASIC, a cocksucking fillapino whore???). Then I found the directTV thing and this bullshido thing that is buried. Then, I found there seemed to be a large greek connection and saw josh/inaba seemed to have pictures of him in greece. Then, I just said, there are WAY too many coincidences here to ignore and I started wondering how I could get an avalon for a "friedcat".

My Little Single is getting 29.4 Gh/s with a firmware update.
Just so you guys know which Little Single is "his" that Luke-Jr is talking about it's the only BFL ASIC device hashing in some respect that all the boys are huddled around trying to fix what are assumed to be massive power and cooling issues, in Kansas City, in the BFL offices where they continue to work on it: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi1343.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fo798%2Fbuddy3315%2Fredit_zpsc904cf5f.png&t=665&c=Ar3o9QXbuE7SJw) This is the product Luke-Jr claims to have "accepted" is sitting the BFL offices with BFL engineers trying to fix it: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1c3hyc/toured_butterflylabs_a_few_hours_ago/?sort=confidence

Visit the following http://alphapcbdesigns.com/ and click Testimonies. It took me several hours, but I was able to narrow down the possibilities. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm9.staticflickr.com%2F8256%2F8647269272_54e2dddb69_z.jpg&t=665&c=VJWHojEbKe93aw) The reason the search term is shifted to the right is because at first I thought I was only going to crop the map, later opting to crop in the text on the left side of the map.

I love that when you click on the testimonials page you get "click back SOON to read testimonials from satisfied customers". Does that mean BFL was their first.

The more you know:
If you take the first 2 characters from "Inaba", characters 2+3 from "Usagi", and characters 3+4 from Luke, it almost spells "insane".
So, no, you shouldn't have them do things together. It would be almost insane.
This new analytical approach to analism amazes me, good sir Greyhawk. Tell me again about how Maasdam cheese rinds can be used to predict the drops in precious metal markets. Or maybe even BFL is not a satisfied customer.
Lol. Seriously, this thread adds more to Bitcoin than either the scamsite discussed, the wanna-be "devs" involved, or BFL outright.

I've got a restraining order against me. Apparently the method is too similar to the production of an extremely potent bioweapon.

This is pretty disgusting in my opinion.
Luke-JR used his standing within the community to boost BFL's status when it needed it most.
Fortunately most of us are smart enough to tell the difference between a rushed engineering sample and a shipped customer product.
In this case it's clear to me that Luke-JR receiving the first public BFL and his subsequent posting to be a calculated decision in an attempt to garner positive marketing around their unreleased product.
I can understand if they wanted to send him one for him to some technical work on the software/firmware to help them with their hashrate for example, but he should not have posted it up knowing full well that it's a pre-release item.

But BFL didn't ship anything! Luke-jr posted a picture taken by Josh at BFL factory. The device never left the factory.

I was not aware of that. If that is true, Luke-JR is basically a fucking scammer.

ASIC vendors have made no secret of them taking part in bets about them. What Luke-Jr did on BFL's instruction was clearly a ploy to provide betsofbitco.in with implausible deniability for cancelling a bet that BFL employees were about to lose. Paying coinjedi a fraction of the value of the bet, in order to recoup most of it, makes economic sense if you make the assumption that everybody is some sort of Game of Thrones level backstabbing objectivist robber baron without any honor or shame.
A Bitcoiner Never Pays his Bets.

I was not aware of that. If that is true, Luke-JR is basically a fucking scammer. It would appear so, yes. Especially since Josh has admitted to what they did, so it's not a case of their word against everyone's evidence. There's no reasonable doubt on this one.
