DR. KIMOTO: The Megacoins, yes, the Megacoins, but that's just
the beginning.  We have to get on, we have to get on; we
have so much time, and so much to do.  Zerocoin. Strike that.  
Reverse it.  Yes. Coinjoin.  This way please.  We'll take the
Gravity Well.  Step in, Charlie.  Grandpa Joe, sir.  
This is the Great Kimoto Gravity Well.

Interesting...

Yes I agree.

There were talks of zerocoin being too much of a niche market.

Hopefully with coinjoin this will curb that, I'm sure kimoto will adapt it if it doesn't serve

Goodbye Kimoto?

DR. KIMOTO: I can't go on forever, so who can I trust to run
the factory when I leave and take care of the Oompa Loompas
for me?  Not a grownup.  A grownup would want to do everything
his own way, not mine.  That's why I decided a long time ago
I had to find a free spirit.  Unconstrained by any other coin.
Most deserving of a chance.  A very honest, loving free spirit
to whom I can tell all my most precious coin making secrets.


Well there you have it.. The Dev of MEC is leaving.

Kimoto should have edited the script better.
Kimoto is expanding, not leaving 

yes, I think the good Doctor is asking for an assistant?



btw Doc, is adding source etc. to github the next up number 1 job?


all good coins have a little team, not just to help develop coin but in case anything should happen to one person, inspires confidence
litecoin a good example of this
I guess these things happen organically

"Github is almost ready. Direct upload would have been useless, so branch structures were devised for group coding and bitcoin 0.9. Sources had to be reversed for historical value." - Kimoto

Interesting to say the least.

Well since my complaint, it looks like alot of my advice is being taken, and based on this I will begin investing resources into mec again. Good to see us moving forward.

"Zerocoin is not going to be implemented, it is alpha. The block size it would require is retarded and there are other ideas like coinjoin that the code has already been written and tested with litecoin and does not bloat the block size." - okie_freemen

"we have so much time, and so much to do.  Zerocoin. Strike that. 
Reverse it.  Yes. Coinjoin.  This way please." - Kimoto

"There is fatal flaw in megadice where coins get sent to the wrong address." -okie      (Not Fixed)

"There is no irc room for better involvement of discussion of development ideas." - okie     #megacoin-dev, #megacoin-pub.

"Do we have a github where anyone can propose fixes, ideas, and changes for review?"- okie    (Coming Soon)

The IRC channels are pretty dead though, unfortunately. I am idling in there nearly all the time and I don't look at the channel that often but I try to when I can (most people don't stick around for very long though). If anyone does have anything to discuss though I will at least try to be there I just might be slow replying (and I may not be of any help). I am nyanpi in the channel by the way.

By the way, where are we at with the hoodies?

Was it decided yet?

All of the replies I got were unanimous for the higher quality hoodies. In his last reply, bholzer said he would be ready to order when he completed his recent project. I don't remember what the timeline was, but hopefully soon since we are now into cold weather in most places that have a winter.  I did do some further research, and found a few places that will do less than a dozen units per order. Some will do as few as one, but the price on average is nearly double. Hopefully we will hear something from bholzer soon. If not, I am open to any suggestions, or ideas to get this done.

DR. KIMOTO: Non, no, that's not Hazw3rth.  He's a supporter.
We share values.  Everything is connected Charlie.

I'll go along with this Charlie stuff for a bit, although I do think it's adversely affecting the price of MEC.

So at the launch when it's claimed the client is a wallet stealer...
They know that others wouldn't so much as download this wallet without any source provided for say first 24 hours?

Enabling Kimoto, Hazw3rth and perhaps others within the inner circle to premine openly.
Am I on the right line Dr. Kimoto?

Anyone with half a brain runs new wallets in a virtual machine anyway, meaning anyone had the same access to mine the coin at launch as anyone else. Besides, this has been debated over and over again and a "premine" of that nature means absolutely nothing when the price was so low that you could buy up more than anyone could have mined for a couple of BTC anyway at that same time. I at one point had 500,000 MEC which I purchased for literally just a few BTC. I've since distributed those coins a bit more because I don't want to be holding such a large percentage of it for myself (I still hold quite a few though), but the point stands that even without mining you could have easily purchased a very large percentage of the coins for cheap, and EVERYONE had this opportunity equally. You can still buy a large percentage of the money supply for like $2000 or so in fiat. You *still* have this opportunity yet people are still whining about the *possibility* that a few early adopters might have a large percentage of the coins through mining in the first days after launch. It's ridiculous.

I mined and still hold well into 6 figures from that same very first 24 hours.
Working out how deep the sock puppets run.... Thanks to your input I'm getting there.
