MtGOX Launch . . . postponed

[TriumVir]

Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right . . .

Apparently only now, 20 minutes to launch, do they realize they have a ton of claims to process.

The world works like this. What doesn't get delayed. People just get antsy.

Here I am!  Stuck in the middle with you.  

[dennis_sweden]

Appluads all around.

[bitcoinminer]

I still don't understand with the financial resources they have, they insist on running it like amateurs.  I think Tux needs to cash out his coins and just let a professional run it for him.

It's not the delay . . . it's the way it was delayed. Mickey mouse all the way around. This was the obvious call two effing days ago.

Jesus f*cking christ! make me stay awake for this shit!?

FFS you fail at every possible level!!!! Was it necessary to be left one hour to re-opening to tell us this?? WTFFFFFFF

MT is not a good business psychologist.  He should have said, "its going to take two weeks, sorry we want a perfect and secure relaunch"

AND then proceed to pull it all off within a week to a surprised audience.

That is is good business showmanship. 

MT did you get that?

these postponements are getting annoying. Once or twice is fine but now its annoying. They should just say 1 week or TBA until they are certain they are ready. Im going to be sleeping for the trade reopening :<

Do you know what happens when they said the equivalent of TBA. It became a flame fest for them to update every hour. Now if your going to bug them to give you update all they damn time it's very hard to make accurate estimates. Fuck seriously 24 hours? People waited like 13 years for Starcraft 2 through numbers of delays.

At least they update you that they are working on the claim.

I refuse to respond in detail until I see a screenshot of a highschool diploma.  Have you EVER opened an English book, in your life?

This is real money we're dealing with here. I know very few, if any, people that are calm when you screw with their money.

Mtgox is a peanut compared to Sony, and look how they handled the PSN fiasco...

[dennis_sweden]

I'm not patient nor understanding - but nonetheless not at all surprised.

Either people are greedy bastards, have their life savings in MtGox, or are mentally handicapped if they didn't expect this.

LOL comparing a starcraft 2 release with a guy seizing funds of 60,000 people and holding them against our will... this business is so gone it may as well not bother re-opening.

[Kid81]

Reopening on the weekend!!! FFS

I picture Cartman playing WoW with his mom catching all the diarrhea in his "potty bowl" when people bring up things like Starcraft.

Considering SC2 alone has a core community forum at minimum 5x this forum and the estimated market value of the game and associated organizations is over $2 billion dollars. I actually believe it is substantially larger and more capable of operation than MtGox in terms of financial means.
