stupid mumbly

Don't think I didn't see that, mate.


Hey everyone,

Hope you're all doing well.

An idea I wanted to pass by you all.

I'm thinking of starting a HVC charity fund. What this looks like, how it's controlled, and which charities should receive funds is where I would like to get everyone's input.

The idea would be that we have a wallet for charity funds and when the coin hit's a nominal price point we release the funds to the charities.

- The price point would be, say, when/if 1HVC = 1USD - an aspirational goal, but not at all impossible.

- How would we give funds to a wallet and know no one will run off with it? - a single person we trust?

- Which charities should benefit, and how should that be decided?


I'm curious to see what ideas you all have.

Cheers,
M

I was certain for the big pump on either HVC or DRK someday in summer and bought 2 btc each.

Now DRK gave me 22 BTC, HVC left 0.3 BTC.

I think HVC has never experienced real pump, it can have a chance for rise or just vanish slowly from traders.

My belief is the former and I'm considering more buying it.

LIke i sad when price was 15 times more then this coin had ridcilous infaltion in 3 parts that was just waiting do doom the coin.DEV did not agree with me and attack me but we see now who was right ..

I also bought dark and HVC some 2-3 months ago because a new that ASIC will take over script and there will be giant army off GPYs to migrate to new coin..many whailes have invested big money in GPY farms and they would not allow that their GPY farm became air..it was for shure that they will pump some non ASIC coin.

 SO it was or Dark or HVC so i bought them all..but when i analyze inflation DARK had normal inflation like Bitcoin and Litecoin but HVC had this weird in 3 parts even some democratic sht (democracy never works in real life) so i went out at 3000.


If this coin had normal inflation like DARK,bitcoin and litecoin it would now be 30 TIMES more worth maybe even more.

HVC delisted from Poloniex. RIP.

Hey guys,

Mumbly here - For those asking, Bumbly is doing fine.

I pulled all of the plugs in his room, but he's not on life support, and *apparently* it doesn't work that way.

Then they started calling me "Sir" and telling me I'm being a "danger to their patients" - hospitals, right?

Day 6 clue:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This site is dedicated to a saint who is best known for slaying a dragon.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cheers,
M

[NeuroticFish]

So quiet here..
The competing folks don't want to tell anyone they look for clues and try to figure out the coords?

[cayars]

I'm sure somebody has already figured it out but there are 7 spots to fill.

Mumbly, can you confirm if anyone (without say who or how many) has gotten the correct answer yet?

Carlo

[crovasco]

Its simple
i even think i know what the last clue will be

[cayars]

I needed the 1st 5 day's worth of clues to solve it assuming I'm correct.
Last clue could be the city name.

[incin]

I needed the 1st 5 day's worth of clues to solve it assuming I'm correct.
Last clue could be the city name.

 I found it from the day 3 clue, assuming im right as well. Unfortunately i submitted coords for the city in my haste and not the actual location. 

[crovasco]

name of the movie would be nice last clue, so its not too obvious ;-)

[Wenzel745]

@Mumbly

Looks like the @HeavycoinNews bot is at it again...

Myriadcoin still having bugs with difficulty adjustments:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=483515.msg6896681#msg6896681

Next heavycoin? Sure hope not.

Gotta love bots!

I think the rules states within a mile.  So you might be good.
Pretty impressive if you got it with 3 days worth of clues!!!

We should PM each other to see if we came to the same conclusion about the place.

Can someone explain this to me please about the limit phase:

HVC site says "The second phase (Limit) allows a maximum vote of 1024 HVC for the first 59,876 blocks, but 8 HVC for the last ~3,600 blocks so it can transition into to the last phase (Sustain)."
Then it says Limit phase will be "63,476 blocks" and also "56 days (fixed)".
Now at one block every 2 minutes there are 720 blocks per day, or in 56 days there are 40,320.

So how can there be "63,476 blocks" in 56 days and how can the voting limit of 8 after the "first 59,876 blocks" kick in then?

Or is this "first 59,876 blocks" calculated from the start of the coin, not the start of the limit phase? Which would be even more confusing as we are at block height 55,133 at the time of writing this, so we'll be at block height 59,876 in less than a week, significantly before the mint phase ends.

So will the voting limit be dropped to 8 within a week, even while we are in mint phase?
Or will it kick in right at the beginning of limit phase?
Or will it not kick in during the whole 56 days limit phase...?
Or will the time per block change in limit phase so that actually "63,476 blocks" can be generated within 56 days?

[adolf512]

This coin is very interesting. proof of work votings can make a coin both less and more secure depending on how much the blok reward is allowed to decrease during a certain time http://odincoin.boards.net/post/60/thread

I do not really like that there is a roof for how many coins that can be created, this will make the coin less secure in the long run http://odincoin.boards.net/post/2

Yes, I've brought this up before also that the math doesn't work.  I was ignored and never got a response back on this.
So I'm still confused as to the length of the limit phase.  Is it 56 days (fixed) as the website says or is it 88.1 days as the math would indicate:
63,476 blocks / 30 (blocks per hour) / 24 (hours per day) = 88.16 days

So will the voting limit be dropped to 8 within a week, even while we are in mint phase?
Or will it kick in right at the beginning of limit phase?
Or will it not kick in during the whole 56 days limit phase...?
Or will the time per block change in limit phase so that actually "63,476 blocks" can be generated within 56 days?

It's my understanding that you can vote up to 1024 during the mint and limit phase clear up to the last 3600 blocks of the limit phase.  You must change your vote to 8 or under for the last 3600 blocks of limit phase which are used for calculations going into sustain phase.

It's kind of fun to play "what if" with the numbers to see what different votes will do to the overall outcome.  However, as you too have pointed out the blocks don't match the days in the limit phase.  I can I think is that the limit phase is either just a couple days short of 2 months (56) or just short of 3 months (88). It really doesn't matter but it would be nice to know which is going to be used.

Carlo

PS I've just assumed the limit phase is going to be 40,320 blocks total (56 days) and not 63,476.

[mumbly]

Hey guys,

Hope you're all doing well - some quick responses for everyone:

Mumbly, can you confirm if anyone (without say who or how many) has gotten the correct answer yet?

Happy to man, while also being as tactful as possible...

I think we have a winner - I haven't measured the exact distance to confirm they're within range, but knowing the long/lat that we're looking for, I'm seeing a few people who are definitely in the correct neighborhood.


With this competition - I'm really keen to hear what everyone here thinks about it - is a week too long?

NeuroticFish suggested allowing daily guesses, which I really like, but I've got to make sure that running it this way won't overload the person on my side compiling all of the guesses.


@Wenzel745 - I hear you man, I removed that re-tweet earlier today. I thought the bot was removed, checking with the guys to make sure this is the case - I can't stand that thing either.


@ p1nky & cayars - Interesting point, I'm going to look at these numbers also.

Cheers,
M
