Ascendancy Scam - Claiming back investments has ended.

Since the main thread is closed and was edited today I'm posting here that I have translated the ANN and I have been in touch all the time with SparkIt (The project manager I think).

I'm not sure how are the team/escrow handle the loss but I want just to post here as a reference for the future (hope Lauda will not delete this post)

Translators should not be ignored!

You didn't translate it https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;threads;u=333242;sa=showPosts
It means you're cheating and lying
you deserve the negative trust for this.

I'm going to state this one more time. You are not getting anything in the following cases:
1) You were part of a bounty campaign that had no 'pay-BTC equivalent' contract (for example, the signature campaign did have this).
2) You have translated the thread and have/have not received payment in ASC (non existing token).
3) You are unable to provide adequate proof that you own a certain address (people who used exchanges, web wallets and similar don't worry, we will handle on per-case basis).
This is primarily a refund for people who invested money or who were part of a binding contract, not for work that was done. None of the 'genuine' team members are getting paid either.

Greedy? I wasted a lot of hours with the translation and the videos for the video contest. The video contest was canceled so im fuck, but i was already paid for my translation and i had 1500 ASC so i want my money cause ALL the money in the ASC accounts was escrowed.

Bullshit. The ASC token was not under escrow, only the invested BTC. Stop wasting my time.

It means you're cheating and lying
you deserve the negative trust for this.

If he can't prove he translated it right now, he is indeed getting a negative rating.
I will update this thread and post a bit later.

I don't need to answer you but I will forward the PSD files to Lauda if needed (but seems that he highly needed so I'm uploading them right now).

I'm accepting that I am scammed but may I know the reason why the translators will not get any satoshis? I understand that investors are more important but maybe it's not good to ignore others.
PSD files sent to Lauda, I don't need to lie.

So I filled out the google doc form, should I sign a message with my BTC address as well?  Or is that only for people whose investment went through to the escrow address?

Are you just ignoring the fact that you could translate the whole white paper, website and everything from ASC and still no bounty participants will be reimbursed? We are all in the same soup and if you want to get paid from investors who got scammed you are no better than those scammers.

Sorry for the minor confusion. I have made changes to the OP:

• If you have invested before 8 AM GMT on Friday, you only make a post in the proper format (as found in OP).
• If you have invested after 8 AM GMT on Friday, you: 1) Fill out the Google form; 2) Make a post in the proper format (as found in OP).

This is ridiculous.

People should not be posting how much they invested in this thread.  All of this should be handled privately.

ALSO, how about an apology from the Escrows?  (for royally fucking up)

While I appreciate the fact that now you are helping fix the situation, and that this SUCKS for you, there has been ZERO apologies from ANYBODY involved in this.

TLDR - wheres the apologies?

14th January? Are you in the right thread or just here to make a quick buck?

[Lauda]

Nonsense. Anyone could come attacking us for "taking money" ourselves even if we didn't do anything. This will be done 100% transparently.

ALSO, how about an apology from the Escrows?  (for royally fucking up)

Looks like someone didn't read the escrow agreement.

TLDR - wheres the apologies?

Apologies do not bring your money back, so cut the bullshit and let me resolve this situation. Nobody is at fault besides the two people who were the 'developers', therefore none of the other team members have to apologize for anything besides wasting their own time.

Ooh no wait, this is not the transaction. I sent it that to my Bittrex account and later to the ASC...

Edit: I edited my post, sorry. How can I get a signature from the Bittrex address?

[Lauda]

You need to find the TX from Bittrex to ASC and provide proof of this. With exchanges and certain web wallets it will be much harder, but we'll handle those on a case by case basis.

Sorry people have been working for hours going unpaid after this situation blew up trying to fix everything for investors who have to do nothing but submitting their transactions.

You are right. While I'm not an escrow, I do apologize that you couldn't spare 10 minutes of your time reading the full escrow agreement and finding out that it's forwarded every 8 hours.

It's not the Escrow's fault, and they didn't "fuck up". Everything was written in the agreement, and it was followed until they ran away. People investing should be aware of everything that happens, at the minimum regarding how their investment is processed. I don't know what else you want. Are you looking for the team members to say something like "I'm sorry that the devs ran away?"?

I had 1500 Asc paid from SparkIt for my spanish translation thread. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1754738.msg17524626#msg17524626

I was paid in ASC the 29 of January.

Its only for investors if you're not an investor you are not part of the refund.

And who are you? Im investor, i can paid for ASC with money or with work, i paid my ASCS with work. My paid was also escrowed and someone needs to pay for my work.

Greedy much? I also translated into my language and don't want anything for the translation - you took a risk with providing your time for this project which turned to be a scam.

Greedy? I wasted a lot of hours with the translation and the videos for the video contest. The video contest was canceled so im fuck, but i was already paid for my translation and i had 1500 ASC so i want my money cause ALL the money in the ASC accounts was escrowed.

Yeah part of it was escrowed, but you'd be paid in ASC (if this wasn't a scam) not in BTC for your work. You can ask scammer to make a blockchain just for you to pay you your 1500 ASC he'll have plenty of time to develop something in jail.

You also be paid in ASC for you investment So is the same thing, the escrows are refunding you for the ASC you had.

Dude, You're a Legendary member and I never expected this from you. It's very simple. You won't get anything No Matter how much you complain here. The refund is ONLY Investors And Not for Translators or bounty participants. You should know what You're getting into when accepting to translate the thread. At this point, You can't blame anyone for not receiving any compensation of some sort. Live with that.

This is my first signature check, should be fine, I checked it just now (green), if not, please tell, I'll try again.

And I'd like to express my gratitude to escrowers and valid people envolved in this 'turned out to be mess' for doing the right thing with investors and spending extra time and efforts.
