It's too serious to say meow.
Think this one more like real coin and more serious. CATcoin doesn't need rebranding, but let this coin be.

I forgot to donate to the CAT faucet last night but will when I get home.
Done !
Thanks for that. This coin is getting back on track. Enough people here to get it going.
Done !
Cat dise is ready, you may check it out http://catdice.tk/
That's pretty cool!
@Maverickthenoob
I'll spend some time digging through the thread later. I can send you PMs with content to add to the facebook page. We're going to show people how it's done.
I am now an admin to https://www.facebook.com/catcoinz, let's get some content I can put on this page.
Maverick could you perhaps connect with drizzle2405 who designed https://www.facebook.com/CATcoins
we got 146 genuine likes in there - is it worth integrating the two pages or is it a competition?
cheers

That's quite a bit of content. If someone could compile some of it that ISN'T int he OP that would be great. I'll be updating the main page with pool info and what not when I'm not at work.
I also made a post with some links to some blog sites and news entry about Catcoin. Someone in here also works for a shop that accepts Catcoin. All needs to go on the Facebook page. As does some of the memes from early in the thread.

Great news! now I know who to flame when I don't see facebook updates for long periodes
Good job man, you can add the casino, the cat dice, ask people to vote for our coin to get listed in shoping sites and stuff like that.
We should get Cat on Coins-e they were interested till recently but all this shit I think their plans to add the coin or on hold to say the least
Edit: Oh yeah and to keep the FB page relevant, it would nice to have some interaction with the people like doing some quizes, or some competitions with small give away and stuff like that, so people really follows everything on that page

Fantastic. This thread has some good links to some faucets and things people have created. I'll have a dig later for them, but there should be some good stuff in the thread to add to the facebook page.
We can also do give aways for likes and posts and such, which is great.

Hey guys, lets get some stuff posted to reddit and this thread. news ETC. We're in the process of retrieving all the social media pages from their various owners so we can more effectively do giveaways and what not. Let's get this coin back to the top!
Yep. As a much higher value coin it stands a much better chance, but people need to vote!
You were concerned that we were changing the coin too much as well, does your loyalty credit program not essentially make it a new coin? Maybe I'm just tired and am mistaking you for someone else.
No, it would not make it essentially a new coin. It is just a mechanism to exactly counteract destructive oscillations in the difficulty levels caused by people following profit-maximizing strategies and kick in only under some circumstances (which should become rare). It is precisely designed to counteract behavior consisting of dropping major hash power into a coin during easy difficulty times, and mining elsewhere when the difficulty goes up. This mechanism is so unobtrusive and bland and boring in its operation that it could be back-ported to Bitcoin itself, and it would continue to function exactly the same except and unless you suddenly had a 30% drop in hashrate followed by a big increase in difficulty (very unlikely to ever occur on the Bitcoin network). I believe the mechanism will get implemented somewhere first (I am hoping in Catcoins), show how effective it is at eliminating bad incentives in mining, that it will become standard for all the coins. Whatever coin implements it first will have the first mover advantage on this technology, and have added credibility for it in the market. Essentially all it does is make it so if somebody drops in and starts mining during particularly easy difficulty times, their reward is cut in half, just for that one difficulty cycle. If they stay and continue mining, they would get full rewards from the next block forward. Nobody has ever proposed any theory why such a rule is unfair, or how it would fail to counteract coin hopper incentives. Also, nobody has proposed any theory other than coin hopping as to why we are suffering huge and erratic swings in difficulty, or any theory of how people who engage in dumping Catcoins cheaply on the exchanges can replenish their stock of cheap Catcoins except by coin hopping, or any theory on why loyal Catcoin miners suffer reduced profitability other than that coin hoppers dump coins suppressing its value and obtain an unfair share of created coins by cherry picking when they mine the coin.

You're assuming their strategies are indeed predictable. Not to mention that if a block reward is all of a sudden half of what it should be, people are going to ask serious questions about the legitimacy of our coin, even if the mechanism is well documented and transparent. Unless you can address envy's concerns above, and make the mechanism reliable. It's a non-starter I think. Further, all the tools we have to monitor hashrate seem to be inaccurate, including the wallet itself. we saw plenty of proof supporting this in the last two spikes, network hash was nowhere near what it should have been. How can you predict an emergency mechanism off of unreliable information. Yesterday we were showing 212 Mhash on one tool and 400 on another, and neither seemed to be right.

I assume the network checks blocks submitted by a node during the last difficulty cycle(s), in order to determime loyalty. How does this keep miners from hopping on pools during low diffs, since the user and network sides of the pool node are completely separate?
If we want Catcoin to survive we need to stop being so fixated on the price and actually start building it up as a currency. The more supported it is, the more stable the hashrate and the value will become.
This coin has a future because it has a community. Right now I've given up worrying about the price and consider my coins to be a stake in Catcoin's longterm future. If you're here just for the money then you're better off looking for another coin.

Agree.
