... WHEN exactly they want you in Stockholm.

Could Bitcoinorama's boundless devotion be explained by the Stockholm Syndrome?

Could Bitcoinorama's boundless devotion be explained by the Stockholm Syndrome?

Lolz

It sounds to me like things are ramping up across the pond.

Reminds me of the sound of hundreds of GPU's spooling up for scrypt.

I've been asked if I'm free this weekend, but Mon is the 30th.

Time for your job interview. Bring a soldering iron, might be like this 

[Meizirkki]

and those Bitbet guys may have a screen to shout at

Mother of god. There's gonna be a fight.

Yes - there are still people arguing over the definition of "unit" for the Bitfury shipping bet from last month...

[canth]

Sound to me like they have a DHL tracking number for chips, expected arrival on or before Monday.  If Friday, they could go balls-to-the-wall over the weekend building units and populating the data center...

Sam said that they weren't relying on a shipping carrier for the first round of chips and rather were sending someone on a plane to hand carry the chips through customs. DHL shipping notifications isn't what they're waiting for.

“We’ve got people personally carrying the chips so we can get through customs faster. We have personal couriers flying around the world handling these chips via different airlines so we can guarantee we will have at least half a delivery if there are any delays with customs or flights,” Cole said.

They said, or rather Sam has said, can I make the weekend, this one?

A quick question: How do you plan on getting that miner back to the UK?
I'm asking because I've paid over 240USD for delivery and I'd rather get a ticket and bring them back myself, but I don't think they will survive in the checked in luggage and will not fit in the carry on luggage.

Well then, sounds like at least one person might have gotten on a plane with some special baggage.

If it's boxed for shipment, it shouldn't fare significantly worse on one airline in baggage than it would on a different airline, like UPS, also in baggage...

I absolutely would not bet any further cash on this. I've been asked to arrive this weekend, not leave, so delivery by Mon is still a stretch, again devil's advocate here. I'm not making Bitbets on this.

Have you seen how they unload the baggage from the plane? What if my miner is underneath the pile? Then on the conveyor belt
I know UPS aren't very delicate either, but to me it seems airport baggage handlers are the worst.

Lol when I first inquired months back, Sam said it would fit in hand luggage. that beast does not meet any hand luggage requirements I know of, but I reckon a clean swipe could take out one of Ryanair's boarding trolls. It may have to be checked in, in a bag with a lot of socks. This is another dilema. Train would take to long, but don't those now have elec outlets and free wifi??

The problem is I got 2 of these babies, so either way I have to check them in

Do you feel absolutely confident that they will survive in the cargo bay?

Maybe be receive it in parts for safer travel and then assemble at home?

It's not the shipping, it's the timing and priority. When packages come through a shipping system, it can easily can get delayed far more significantly than a passenger can when dealing with customs.

They call them throwers for a reason. http://travelproluggageblog.com/2013/02/luggage/confessions-of-an-airline-baggage-thrower/

Put your money where your mouth is then.

Sorry but shipping out one unit on September 30th may win a bet but it does not meet their target if "Day 1 shipping" has any meaning.

If you are that concerned why not take the courier option. For sure the women are 1000% worth the visit just to keep rubbing your eyes and pinching yourself in disbelief. No sh*t, really, it's unnnreal. I wouldn't risk taking anything apart, no container will be more protective than that metal casing, and you'll for sure void warranty dude.
