The previous poll, should I start DMC, ended 49 for, 64 against. However, most of the people who voted against this liked the plan but considered 1m impossible (although they gave no evidence to back up their claims).

So, we're back to voting again. No one can see the results until after the 7 days are up.

Great to see you still want to go forward with your plans (and still dare to aim quite high Wink )!

Agreed. As someone who voted no, I certainly don't want you to give up, just scale back a little bit.

As someone who voted yes, i want to change my vote to no. Investing big, but not.going for efficient scale (51% attack) is stupid.

Erm, I don't think Diablo's original intent was ever to launch a 51% attack.

A 51% attack doesn't make much sense, anyways.

That's why it's called an "attack". Derp. When are we going to be rid of the big-government provocateurs and apologists? Sheesh.

Well, hows this. Everyone wants me to do a 51% attack? Fine. Get a share majority, pass a motion. I know you anti-Bitcoin people out there have money, put it where your mouth is.

I think that a large, transparent mining company would be good for bitcoin.

Glad to see someone trusted in the community is trying to do it.

I thought (and still think) that 1 million BTC is a lot to raise.  Hopefully less is enough to get a top-notch mining company going.

We currently have the IRC client downloaded and are operating under the free 30 day trial period.

I definitely plan on registering my account and then I will absolutely set up a channel for future advertisement discussions.

I'll post an update in the DBL Advertisements thread in the marketplace services section for future reference.

Yeah use a proper client like X-Chat or irssi.

Yes I see the client I was using mIRC requires 20 dollars before its activated.

I actually downloaded IRSSI when I set up i2p but never got a chance to get it running.

I will look into setting up an IRC channel today.

I will be sure to keep everyone posted.

Thanks for your support!

mIRC is a scam. Just use silverex's build of xchat (not xchat upstream). http://www.silverex.org/download/

Put a channel on freenode, thats where the rest of the community is.

You just join the channel that you want, and it will be created if it doesn't already exist. To chat with lots of people you can join #bitcoin.

Awesome I have the client running now

Just watched a 10 minute tutorial on youtube for a one word command but it was a good way to brush on the software Smiley

Thanks!
