Ok so a few of announcements;

Firstly, let us address the small competition KnCMiner held on Bitcointalk.org to create the phrase chosen to populate all our boards;

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=170332.msg3019140#msg3019140

The entries were brilliant, there were some genuine laugh out loud choices, as well as a variety of creative mash-ups with reference to space and Bitcoin mining. We did take note of entries within our main thread, as well as the thread dwdoc started, and the later thread included in the ‘Newbie’ section started by happyagnostic. So we promise, no one was overlooked. Whilst there were several honourable mentions, including;

Commanderuk – Difficulties mastered are opportunities won.

600watt – Mine the Gap.

Kaerf – “The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on the brink of second bailout for banks”

The joint – where zeros and ones become heroes and fun.

The Avenger – “A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is a reality” – John Lennon

BigLad – Uranus is next… (not really but that got a superb reaction)

There was however one clear winner, and whilst a lot of consideration has been given into stating what that is, we’re in two minds about revealing it until the boards are in our hands. So we would like to tease you a little further about what that maybe, but in all honesty we all agreed upon the choice as soon as we saw it.

We have sent the member a private message, and have just sent him the final design for his approval. He has agreed to keep quiet, until such point as he is welcome to claim total credit.

I won the contest. They just now messaged me. The winning phrase is ""I spent all my money on this machine."

jk. i didn't win. I liked "bitcoin makes the world go around" more than their honorable mentions though, so I doubt the real winning phrase would be something that I like

Maybe someone can start a bitbet on what the winning phrase will be.

...or you have just experienced that, what in Evolutionary Theory is called "convergence" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergent_evolution)

I had a Buzz Lightyear-inspired slogan "to the infinite difficulty and beyond". Then I saw that almost the same suggestion was posted on the KnC thread before me.

We are influenced by roughly the same stimuli, so the responses would also be roughly the same.

“Dark times lie ahead of us and there will be a time when we must choose between what is easy and what is right.”
“We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.”
“It is important to fight and fight again, and keep fighting, for only then can evil be kept at bay, though never quite eradicated.”
