This must be the most motivating pep-talk that I have read here on Bitcointalk.
We are in a band. I love it.
Looking forward to making music.
Thank you Kora,

Pentamon

Thanks Pentamon!

I think there are many parallels between music projects, and software development, especially open-source community software projects. From my experience most people involved in serious amateur/semi-professional music do it for the satisfaction, and their primary goal is rarely to make lots of money. I think the motivation to get involved with open-source software communities is the same. Peer-recognition & a sense that you are making a valuable contribution to something that you personally regard as 'meaningful'  is very valuable.

Most musicians who earn enough to live on from music 'don't work', they just spend their time doing what they love doing. I think many hard-core software developers are probably the same. I think most musicians and software developers have to settle for a balance, sometimes the music/software might not be your top shelf choice, but it's better than waiting tables, so you put up with some less than perfect 'gigs' because it increases your chances of finding a really great project that actually pays enough to live on. In music people refer to a 60/40 band - 60% cover songs & 40% original songs. That's how the Rolling Stones & Beatles started, and most probably 90% of all successful bands.

Sumbited my info finally after some battle Smiley . Hope it's fair . Good luck !

Great to see you my Friend managed it all good. I will tell more of my friends later today or tomorrow.
did u submit two stakes, qiwoman and qiwoman2?

NO only qiwoman2 my qiwoman account has been hacked so if anyone is using that it isn't me. Unfortunately I tried to get it back but have had no response from the Admins on this forum so have had to create qiwoman2  Cry Whoever is using my old qiwoman account is the hackers associated with the honorcoin registrations where myself and many of my friends here got their accounts hacked, so it's the old honorcoin admins who stole all our bitcointalk accounts and I am surprised that our voices have fallen on deaf ears here and not been able to get our accounts back. Cry Please disregard whoever is using my qiwoman account obviously they are the scammers probably using all the hacked accounts to get shares. MINE IS ONLY qiwoman2.

Any update about the number of registrations so far ?

>1300 in total so far. But a big chunk of them are sockpuppets. Cool It's very extincting to see everything work so well, people applying without much trouble.

Noob question: What is a sockpuppet?
Just google it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sockpuppet_(Internet)

Just an opinion. why do we need to have 3k stakeholders? with 1k or 2k stakeholders kora could be much more rare and stable and after some time when it wins some reputation many other speculants and traders could use this coin.

Let's take your idea to the extreme:
Let's say we start only with 10 stakeholders. Then it could be super rare and super stable, and .... nobody except these 10 will care about it's reputation. Speculators and traders would use it nonetheless.
So is that what we want?

I say, we should try to see it being distributed much wider than the 3000.
Now, on the Bitcointalk forum, most people are so pre-occupied trying to find the next coin to jump and pump, that I think you should look elsewhere for stakeholders. Let's think outside of the box.

i think 3000 menbers will be a long time

Yeah, it's hard to say. But you're right, we won't get these many unique people overnight. 3000 is a lot.
any plan  if didn;t get 3000 people or when get 3000  how do the devteam next step?

 i think do not folk  qora completely  

 we should creat a coin base on qora  but do better than qora ,  add more new functions

  could be better.   Smiley


To be honest with you I haven't really disccussed with Kora what we'd do if the goal of 3000 non-sockpuppet applications wasn't reached, or would take ridiculous amounts of time.

But the plan has always been to reach a set amount of non-sockpuppets, then close the form. After this we'll manually validate any suspicious or weird entries (for example two entries which are almost identical but are hard for the system to catch). We'll also make sure all entries have been confirmed with an email address and got a valid BTT + NXT ID. This check will be done automatically through a special script. THEN if say 126 entries doesn't make it through all these steps, we'll open the reg form again with a new limit of 126. And we repeat the process with the remaining stakes.

So yeah, this may take some time. But I'm fully prepared to put the effort into this since I believe in Kora. Cool

Some may argue "just allow the sockpuppets it'll go faster" but that's not what Kora is about.

I think you are doing the right thing.
To really go somewhere with Kora, 3000 are not enough, I think.

Sorry to say, especially not the kind of moths like us, that are attracted by the big burning candle in the middle.

We should be canvassing outside of this forum, and get some 'real life' band members!

Just one opinion.

Nice number as for now and still many registrations are left , so I think distribution is gonna take a while.

One noob question. If i understood correctly you mentioned that there will be 50,000,000 coins, from wich there will be 25,000,000 distribuited in equal
stakes. Am i right?
And what will happen with the rest of the coins?

I'll let Kora answer this one. I know he's working hard at the moment arranging the coin aspects (though he's more of an organizer, the spider in the web).
