ThickAsThieves: or stop

ThickAsThieves: or tamper the jury pool

ThickAsThieves: so cross your fingers

ThickAsThieves: it's not just up to MP tho, he has a crew that decided the resolution

ThickAsThieves: your anecdotal experience is not a factor

ThickAsThieves: rikur, your only argument is that the bet does not state what date of advertisement would be used, and you already see where mp lies on that

ThickAsThieves: 3. the action of making generally known; a calling to the attention of the public

ThickAsThieves: 2. a public notice, especially in print.

ThickAsThieves: 1. a paid announcement, as of goods for sale, in newspapers or magazines, on radio or television, etc.

ThickAsThieves: ad·ver·tise·ment [ad-ver-tahyz-muhnt, ad-vur-tis-muhnt, -tiz-] noun

ThickAsThieves: what does court have to do with it

ThickAsThieves: rikur, what say you: https://forums.butterflylabs.com/content/117-announcement-bfl-asic-release-specifications.html

ThickAsThieves: ta-da https://forums.butterflylabs.com/content/117-announcement-bfl-asic-release-specifications.html

ThickAsThieves: ^

ThickAsThieves: it does say "announcem,ent"

ThickAsThieves: is a forum post an advertisement?

ThickAsThieves: or are quoted

ThickAsThieves: also, its likely that the forum posts stille xist

ThickAsThieves: prove it

ThickAsThieves: more obviously

ThickAsThieves: and meets original claims

ThickAsThieves: just in case BFL fixes the specs

ThickAsThieves: also, rikur, it is not in your best interest to rush bet resolution

ThickAsThieves: and would find it amusing if that turned the bet

ThickAsThieves: i do think them changing the specs advertised is sneaky

ThickAsThieves: rikur did you look at those images mp just linked?

ThickAsThieves: you got me

ThickAsThieves: but sure

ThickAsThieves: more that i dont care

ThickAsThieves: particularly on dynamic pages

ThickAsThieves: its only marginally useful

ThickAsThieves: wayback machine sux

ThickAsThieves: no thanks

ThickAsThieves: i'm pretty sure specs changed

ThickAsThieves: rikur you are wrong

ThickAsThieves: and how do we determine what date the specs advertised were changed

ThickAsThieves: made = created

ThickAsThieves: then should not those specs be used

ThickAsThieves: but if a bet was made after that

ThickAsThieves: not sure when they changed teh advertised specs

ThickAsThieves: does that mean if specs were changed in the advertisment before the newer bets, that those specs will be referred to?

ThickAsThieves: its not said in the bet

ThickAsThieves: as it does not specify which specs advertised would be used

ThickAsThieves: however even if so, what's advertised now, is still techincally meeting the terms of the bet text

ThickAsThieves: rikur, I could swear that there used to be power specs on the page, also that the advertised GHs used to be higher for some products

ThickAsThieves: it's "Dumas"

ThickAsThieves: it was probly just a diversion

ThickAsThieves: and does not limit when those specs can be advertised

ThickAsThieves: but the bet says "advertised specs"

ThickAsThieves: they use more power than originally anticipated

ThickAsThieves: they do appear to have shipped more than just testing units

ThickAsThieves: not sure which side I would lean toward

ThickAsThieves: it will be debated surely

ThickAsThieves: if so, then the July one is also resolved

ThickAsThieves: like anyone cares about btcjam

ThickAsThieves: surely we dont need to turn this into more of a circle jerk

ThickAsThieves: i excel at other things

ThickAsThieves: not the kind of brain i have

ThickAsThieves: i was programming qbasic when i was in highschool, and some pascal, it was useful to learn coding concepts, especially since i got into web design after, but coding is much too tedious for me

ThickAsThieves: i'm also not a programmer

ThickAsThieves: i'm a fan of iteration and learning by doing

ThickAsThieves: sometimes you just gotta do something

ThickAsThieves: that approach probly works better with coding than with life

ThickAsThieves: :/

ThickAsThieves: i dont work as much as I used too

ThickAsThieves: why code when you can IRC all day

ThickAsThieves: loppoper1, support your community send us all donations

ThickAsThieves: how many shoulod he have?

ThickAsThieves: so many people want one

ThickAsThieves: not gonna be nearly enough

ThickAsThieves: but watch, people will pay like 5-8btc ea

ThickAsThieves: i think one has been linked before

ThickAsThieves: bidding*

ThickAsThieves: waitll you see how absurd budding gets for the USB miners

ThickAsThieves: after 2mos, things will probly get pretty ugly

ThickAsThieves: if they are lucky each blade will do 25btc in 2mos

ThickAsThieves: nice

ThickAsThieves: how did this happen: [08:58] <@assbot> [MPEX] [O.USD.C140T] 200 @ 0.14768654 = 29.5373 BTC [-]

ThickAsThieves: nice

ThickAsThieves: firedcat was all like OMG when he saw those guys running theirs flat on a table

ThickAsThieves: i like how he's including a free rack with purchase of 10

ThickAsThieves: last time, like 74ish each i think

ThickAsThieves: lotsa snipes last time, right?

ThickAsThieves: it stays in a range

ThickAsThieves: not sure how that would benefit him

ThickAsThieves: why does mpoe have so much buying and selling action all the time?

ThickAsThieves: not gonna bother with the math

ThickAsThieves: we might get more

ThickAsThieves: if it actually went up 20%

ThickAsThieves: depends on how many diffs

ThickAsThieves: you still dont hit 26

ThickAsThieves: even if diff goes up 20% each time

ThickAsThieves: there will be a about 5 diff changes before the 19th (excluding tomorrow's maybe)

ThickAsThieves: he keeps assuming people will ship ;)

ThickAsThieves: unfortunately his predications have rarely worked out

ThickAsThieves: ;;ticker

ThickAsThieves: ;;estimate

ThickAsThieves: ;;bc,stats

ThickAsThieves: you do well with your estimations

ThickAsThieves: i'm not saying your pricing is unreasonable, so much as priced perfectly above the likely hashrate
