The Pay it Forward Project.

[nelisky]

How can I tell if a new transaction has come in using bitcoind?  It seems to just list the total amount of inbound transfer per address, not the individual transfers...

You probably need the listtransactions patch. Can you build? If not, what platform are you on?

Or you can make a script to parse the bitcointools output (with --wallet-tx switch).

Lets play a game to see what happens.The rules are simple.Create an address called pay it forward and post it in the thread or on your forum profile.When you receive a donation on that address you then donate to 3 other people with a published pay it forward address.The amount you donate to each is unimportant as is the amount you receive.

I got 4 donations to my address, so I then donated to 12 random people on the list.  Now I'm realizing that this will blow up pretty soon.  I suppose this is your intention to stress the network as an experiment.  I'm wondering if maybe you would want to write code to automatically pay it forward when a donation is sent to the pay it forward address, since I will become hard to manually see coins once it starts to blow up...

Dude,I dont write code 

I just come up with the ideas!

I think the better idea is to wait for a period of time,say 1 day or 1 week and then combine what you received into a bigger bang for your donation buck . If someone wants to write the code to do that and contribute to the pay it forward project  it would be appreciated. I can host it for you if you do so!

[LZ]

It is quite possible to do.

please remove me from the list, I gave up on this and uninstalled, thanks!

'this' as in the pay it forward project or as in bitcoin?

I suppose to give up on 'bitcoin' would be similar to giving up on other types of currencies as well, and in such cases giving them away or destroying them.
Or perhaps it's similar to giving up or quitting smoking, in which bitcoin in some way is detrimental to one's health and is necessary to prevent further association with or consumption of.

I suppose in the sense that a new currency is existent and is currently limited in use cases compared to already established currencies, many individuals who put little to no effort into developing, contributing or helping to establish its use or future potential may pursue a kind of 'giving up' on Bitcoin since it doesn't meet a kind of expectation of currency as recognized by general society and ease of use of existing dominating currencies.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_currencies is a list of currencies, many in which you may notice several similarities to Bitcoin (e.g. difficult or time consuming to obtain) that could also actively be 'given up' on.  However, it is likely that those types of currencies do not garnish any interest or attention and therefore unlikely to be considered as necessary to give up.  However, additionally, it may be a currency that one has previously had none of and therefore is not in a position to 'give up' on considering lack of use.

Humm, I'm not sure what my point is.  I think I'm rambling.  I give up.  ^_^

"Dear IRS,

I write to ask you to remove me from your list. I regret this decision but your ability to provide me with any helpful service or in any way improve my quality of life has been null, and as such you leave me no choice but to terminate any relationship you may assume we have promptly.

I will add you to the 'no call list' as soon as possible, and I must request that you do not try to contact me through phone, letter, email or any other medium. I am not interested in your services.

Very best regards,

nelisky

neilskzy...HILARIOUS!!!

please remove me from the list, I gave up on this and uninstalled, thanks!

I guess Gatsu finally realized that bitcoin wasn't some magical automatic money making machine , so he "gave up".  The only posts I read of his was complaining why bitcoin was not generating money for him...I guess he never reazlied that the purpose of a currency is not to generate money but rather to trade and store wealth that you generated somehow else 

But yeah, as was mentioned earlier, if you never put any effort into something, how can you possibly "give up" on it?

bitcoin != magical money fountain

If you give up on federal reserve notes I have an ass that needs wiping with them.....

please remove me from the list, I gave up on this and uninstalled, thanks!

And why are some nicks with additional spaces?

[nelisky]

It finally happened, I have corrupted my wallet file beyond any hope. Good thing I only spare change there

Anyway, no more nelisky on the list, please! no reason sending the coins to nowhere at all. As soon as I make a little sense out of my 10+ bitcoin clients running with different wallets and versions I'll post a new address. And I'm running behind too, I owe you guys 6 payments already...

[LZ]

Oh, how did it happen? Strangely, it seems that this often happens...

[grondilu]

Well, at least this game is usefull since it reveals the weaknesses, if there are any, of the bitcoin software during intensive small transactions.  Maybe you should report all incidents to the dev-team ?

[LZ]

I think that nelisky is one of the dev-team.
