Yes, the 480 coins I mined from syncing up the nodes out of a total 1,000,000 mined are a problem  

I understand you are floating around trying to make a name for yourself as the white knight of alts, but there is no big secret or breakthrough here that will help that. I suggest you stop trying to one-up me with your silly remarks. Please...go back to criticizing those who don't know how to tell you how wrong you are before someone here makes you look really foolish

I never said it was a problem. This is just what I do. I make no judge to if the dev is legit. Remember, one coin with an exploit had a legit founder, but a subcontracted dev that placed the exploit. I reveal what is in the code and network, nothing more. The most biased part of what I do is when I judge release times and such based on bitcointalk posts by early miners.

I never accused you of premining it or anything (I'd have no proof because I don't have a block explorer). I said there was an explicit rule that would allow instamining for a range of blocks. The instamining can be by you, or an early miner. It's in the code, you being an honest developer does not change that.

Personally, I think you're an honest dev and the instamining bit was probably just from whatever upstream coin you forked from and was not used maliciously. But that's just my opinion. There is nothing in the code that says this is not malicious and was not abused by anyone

There's the unbiased opinion I have come to expect from you. Much better

Heritage: very close to vanilla ppcoin, mmxiv

Problems:

* MODEATE: genesis seed is not a news event
* MODERATE: Blocks 23 to 120 is purposefully set to have minimum difficulty, making instamining these blocks trivial

Notes:

+      if (!fProofOfStake && pindexLast->nHeight >= 23 && pindexLast->nHeight < 120)
+        return bnProofOfWorkLimit.GetCompact(); // most of the 1st 120 blocks

this looks like a (not security related) bug:
-    fs::path pathConfigFile(GetArg("-conf", "ppcoin.conf"));
+    fs::path pathConfigFile(GetArg("-conf", "mmxiv.conf"));

First ever coin I've evaluated with a code base so old that it doesn't include `getrawtransaction`. Because of this, and no usable block explorer, I consider this review incomplete. I could not evaluate the difficulty adjustment curve nor if there was any premine.
I expect to update this review either when someone ports getrawtransaction, two independent parties throw up Abe based block explorers, or ports my local block explorer to somehow work without getrawtransaction

Watermarks: uint64, pos

Very inaccurate. Genesis block is the same as Maieuticoin (on purpose). It is based off the newest PPC, very new code. The blocks were meant to be fast and mined before staking started. Technically, we are behind on mining. The first 23 blocks were for me to test with difficulty in the hundreds so blocks were slow and not instamined while I synced up all the seednodes, the difficulty was reset to 1. You'll see in the explorer once it's up that those blocks had a significantly higher difficulty
 
Block explorers are very easily made. Maieuticoin has had three and it's nearly the same code. I usually respect and welcome your evaluation, and while code wise you are correct and none of it is a secret, you dropped the ball on your personal conclusions

Sorry you feel that way, but I stand by it all. I give a ding for the genesis block seed because if it's not based on a news event, there is no proof that you didn't mine it before the release or proclaimed genesis block time.

And for your difficulty bit, if your intention was to use these blocks as testing, you should've also made the reward for these blocks 0, otherwise I consider it a problem.

Anyway, I'll be waiting for block explorers. I realize block explorers are easy, but I don't intend to screw around with Abe a couple of hours just to evaluate this.

c-cex is charging 20 BALLS to withdraw BALLS.  Which at their current purchase price equates to a cost of 0.0018878BTC to get yours BALLS home to stake them.

Seems they have got us by the BALLS.

This coin takes BALLS to move around. Just keep them in the wallet to stake after you buy them and it will cover the fees

Watching the chat at Ccex has me rolling

"deltafox: soon some idiot will come out will with BallsDark...call them blue balls!
deltafox: They "should explode when it hits the market!"
deltafox: So hard to mine..it hurts..."

LOL

When will we hit bittrex? Extra buy volume will shoot this one through the roof. There is almost no will to sell at this moment  

Coins are almost mature, can't wait to stake and see what it will bring in
