thanks for update
and good job yakamoto, thanks for help to manage this campaign

yakamoto, now that you're helping to manage this campaign, can we expect regular payouts on Tuesday or is it going to be Wednesday.  I think the important thing is that it's consistent and that we're told in advance about aberrances.  Another thing I'm confused on, what time exactly does each week start for the purposes of counting posts for a payout period?  Is it Monday 00:00?  In what timezone?

[sed]

On the topic of that whole whitelist/greylist/blacklist thing, I just wanted to bring up one other point which wasn't brought up before.  Other campaigns which don't pay for "unconstructive" posts don't try to kick people out of the campaign for this, they just don't pay for that type of post.  I guess I'm mainly writing because I don't want to have to think hard about how I use the forum just because I'm a sig campaign member.  Sometimes I write a long long post, sometimes I write a short post with only a word or two.  I do so as it's appropriate in the discussion on the thread.  If I want to say "What about X?" as a question to someone, I want to simply state my question without having to worry about whether my sponsor is going to kick me out.  If I want to post a picture in the "lets count to 11 million in pictures" thread, I want to enjoy doing that without worry.

Basically, I'm suggesting this, if OP doesn't want to pay for certain posts, that makes sense.  If OP doesn't want spammers in the campaign, that makes sense too.   But putting people who use the forum normally (not posting too much, not too often, just posting how they fel when they're online) into a greylist is, IMHO, bad practice.  In the end, everyone who is sponsored by XBTEC is going to be known as annoying encylocpedia posters who just talk and talk and talk despite the fact that the same point could have been made more succinctly.

To try to really drive-home this last point, consider that I could just keep on typing paragraphs in order to lengthen my post, but that wouldn't make it any more constructive than it already is.  More words won't make any more conversation happen, I've already said my point and the resto of this paragraphs in this posts are just for illustration.  However, because I'm not an ashole, I won't go on.

Do you guys understand me?

I have to say it's up to XBTec when the payouts will actually occur. I'd expect either Wednesdays or Thursdays (Probably Wednesday because I'm helping now, and there's less members), but calculations are consistently made on the Tuesdays of every week. After the calculation has been completed, it then goes on to the next week. So whatever I have you dialed in at on Tuesday is what you get.

I am in UTC -7, so if it's 12:00 in London, it's 5am here, assuming I got that right.

TL;DR: Next week post numbers happens once I have calculated your posts. Not once the count has been posted.

Just an FYI spelling error in your opening post:

*You have to zero or positive trust status, and not be labeled as scammer.

Ok, calculations are done! It took me a mere 49:52 minutes/seconds, and I have provided the OP with the link to the spreadsheet.

Payments are on their way!

I believe OP no longer accept new participants, at least for now.

Please, take attention.

Participants list is formed and more than full already.
New participants currently do not allowed.

So basically users don't need to tell you how many constructive post they have made?

[dothebeats]

Anyone paid by XBTec yet?

You can look at the entire posting history of everyone. As such, no-one has to tell me their "constructive posts" as I can do it my self.

I'm gonna say not yet, because him bein in Moscow and me finishing calculations at about 1 am his time isn't a decent recipe for speed. He'll respond soon enough, however. Give it about 6-7 hours from now and I'm quite confident he'll respond.

Also, due to the time zone differences, there was a reason that I ask for 72 hours le-way for payment.

I bet you spent less than 10 seconds checking my posts. How did I score on the "spam detector"?  

I am very happy with this arrangement actually. This will speed up payout, OP has less overhead work, less dispute on members' spam content and Yakamoto earn a bit more every week. It is a win-win-win situation.

<<XBTec paid me 0.0185BTC
thats why am still here

you are referring to the 1st round of payouts (payouts made one week ago!).
The other posters are referring to the 2nd period of payments (according to Yakamoto payments should arrive in the next 72 hours).

Actually, a lot of your posts aren't half bad, and so you scored pretty low. I saw at least 4 lines a lot of the time, and that's a decent amount of writing. It's the one-liners I'm more keen about. 4 lines can easily be constructive.

I'm hoping they will be sent within 72 hours, but again, due to time zones, it's not exactly a guarantee. Rest assured, however, that I believe that he will pay very soon. He just has to have time and read the posts, and everything else.

They'll be sent soon, don't worry!

EDIT: Fixed double quote.

This is not a good measure of "constructiveness".  As I discussed upthread (as of yet unreplied to), typing many sentences when a one or two word answer will suffice is very unconstructive.  Constructiveness is about matching your posts to the situation at hand.  There are many many instances where shorter is better than longer.
