I'm legit. I bought my first batch of UNO in February 2014 and have been accumulating ever since. I'm just a lurker but I've watched essentially this entire thread in real time. Benefactor turned me on to it with a giveaway of 1 WHOLE UNO on a different website.

I just think it's a cool way to promote this awesome coin.

Well I'll toot ... great service and will work just fine in the meantime.
We will however need apps listed on PLAY and whatever the Apple App place is called in the next180 days.

If someone is willing to put up coin, I can recommend HashEngineering for an Android wallet:

Quality android dev. I have my doubts about them doing it for free, but they aren't afraid to take on a challenge (they did so with Myriad). Upcoming merge mining might be difficult, but it looks like they've been doing some work on Namecoin...

I have no suggestions for dedicated iOS though...

It has been suggested that I remove this bit:

"NO HYPE:  JUST HISTORY

What if somebody came along and gave you a truly valuable coin?
What if that coin wasn’t “new” and “complicated”?
What if this coins was a simple, proven effective store of value?
What if you could buy this coin, and hold it for the long term and make a profit?
What if I gave you a truly liquid coin that’s been trading on all of the major markets for over a year?""


I have NO FEELINGS about anything that I write and I ALWAYS over write on the first draft on the theory it's easier to cut crap than add diamonds at the end of the deadline.

So I'm fine cutting this.  It does come off as a bit too "Morpheus".

Comments?  Agree?  Disagree.  Other stuff that sucks?  Something better?  Please, I'm not thin-skinned.  I can take as well as I dish out.

Agree.  Sounds a bit Don Lapre.

Hi guys & gals,

Can anyone tell me if the merge mining capabilities implemented in git is actually working/complete & ready to use?

Ta 

Nope! Not Yet!

Shame. Any ETA?

He was shooting for block 600k. That was still the target last I heard, but the target will move if that's what is required to get it right.  I'm ok with delays, so long as it works when it arrives.

Well I like the "no hype" disclaimer and you bring up some good points in that list why this isn't your regular "someone tries to hype their latest instamined clonecoin to lure in dump victims" thread. UNO is a no bullshit coin, one that has shown pretty steady growth over a long period of time. Overwritten? Maybe, try my UNO Intro, but people seem to like it.

About facts: I'm not sure about the network being 30x as strong as LTC. You cannot directly compare hashrates due to the different algorithms. I'm fairly certain in proportional terms (% of total scrypt power vs. total SHA power) LTC would be stronger. Better to just leave it at UNO being among the Top SHA256 networks and the upcoming mergemining.

Agreed.  100% taken on board re: LTC hash claims.  And thank you for your learned response to the FUD guy over on Reddit!

Oh Z!  ROFL!  Holy shit!  That is EXACTLY where that rhythm in my subconcious brain came from!  Exactly there!  You Nailed it!  Don Lapre on the beach slinging "tiny little classified ads"!  It is exactly how I heard it in my head as I was writing it.

Yes, this will be SO gone in the final draft.  My 1990's boiler room sales training is showing...

(Note to self:  place thousands of tiny little classified ads for Uno in THOUSANDS of Newspapers all over the country.  Set up 1-900 Uno psychic hotline for trading tips...only 15 cents per minute...!  Kill self in jail cell for being greedy scumbag...)

UNO Rain has begun on /r/dogecoin

http://www.reddit.com/r/dogecoin/comments/2zfmi7/uno_giveaway/

Please go upvote the link.  Post your wallet.  I'll even pay you guys.

If people ask questions, please answer them.  Direct them here.  Direct them to /r/unobtanium.

I'll pay for five days from now.  It is currently 18 March, 4:30 am GMT.  I will rain until 23 March 4:30 am GMT.

Let's make this a success!

[Gekko463]

I am being asked how "heavy" the blockchain is.  Anyone know how to answer that?

 Ok lets see how many Dogs  become  AllChemists 

In the first hour, 5 new wallets and .11 kg of UNO given away.  I've been being generous with any excuse to give more than 10 grams.  Please go upvote the thread.

[Gekko463]

3 hours into the /r/dogecoin Rain, afternoon SEA Time.

8 new wallets.  .33 UNO given away.

One Shibe correctly guessed two of my "Magic Words", rare, and fair, and I dually awarded him 200 grams.

I have privately filed away the list of 11 magic words with Falling Knife in Reddit private messages, so that it is clear the words are pre-defined and the contest honest and open to even all of you, except for Falling Knife (whom I will pay a fee for this "Price Waterhouse Coopers Keeping me honest" service) if he would like.

Those who frequent here (or come to lurk here because they discovered it on Reddit) are more likely than others to get a few of them, unique to our culture, correct.

I imagine more people will sign up as the globe turns and I sleep and I will catch up each morning for the next 5 days.

This will only work well if we get some "upvotes" on the thread over there.

So 10 grams for posting.  100 if you guess the "Magic Words".

Hmm, get Whoppie Goldberg involved in on it.  Get infomercials from hell with all those Jewelry networks.  Hell, one might possibly become the most-watched series on TV -- "O no, what's happening to U no tonight?!"  "Who shot BW?"  Then movies.  "Blazr Saddles".  "The Good, the Rare, and the Unobtanium".  "Dr. UNo".

Glad to see the community outreach, for the duration of the rain I would like to extend any OPEN OFFER I have listed for doge as well

RATE: $5/37K DOGE (valid until 3-23-2015)

I am being asked how "heavy" the blockchain is.  Anyone know how to answer that?

right now it uses 422 MB to store the full blockchain on my computer - far less than Doge, LTC or BTC and most other chains.
So the UNO rockchain is lightweight in comparison, which i think is great for the users.

Give-a-way at Doge reddit is a great thing btw.
