I have 2 questions regarding airdrop as it is obviously the hot topic:

1. Is is confirmed how many applicants are finalized and who will recieve airdrop?

2. I have my confirm id and transaction so will the coins be automatically sent to that address or what is the process to recieve the coins?

(1) No, it is not confirmed. The last batch went out yesterday (01/18/16 03:00 PM CST). Those participants will all need adequate and fair time to complete the process and seek help if they require it. So once there is a final date for when all addresses need to be in the system, the final numbers can be confirmed and released as general statistical information about participation - this will be soon, time is of the essence now.

(2) The address you submitted to the confirmation page is where the coins will go. Make sure this address is correct by using dcraddrgen to verify the seed you saved as you will import that seed into a wallet later on and access the coins. If you lose the seed, you will not be able to recover the coins.

how to create dcr address ?
i followed all steps https://forum.decred.org/threads/how-to-create-a-decred-address-for-windows.87/ but without result

Those instructions are not recommended for you unless you're comfortable with inspecting and working with source code. A user (zero) was kind enough to post detailed instructions for Windows users which you can find here. If you have trouble, please post your error in detail in that thread and people will help you complete the process.

no email yet Sad

will wait, thanks for good work

me too, just waiting email

Same boat. But a user in Decred's official forum said:

"The emails are not sent all at once , are sent progressively and are still being sent , will still reach"

So, let's wait...

We have to understand that a lot of Newbie and Junior members or peoples without reasonable online presence can't get a slice. We have to understand that the Devs and Marketers don't want a lot of dumper sockpuppets.

Bitcointalk's activity doesn't mean nothing, since you've done good jobs out there

Quote from: socal on January 18, 2016, 07:52:51 PM

It doesn't have to be a bitcointalk account that you submit it can be FB, Linkedin, Twitter, etc

That's why i mentioned people without reasonable online presence. Anyway this isn't my problem, i was just too late to claim Cheesy

Of course I haven't used bitcointalk's link. No invitation anyway

I'm still curious as to how I was able to bypass the screening that was assured to be in place AFTER I brought it to attention that folks could game the system. There is no way in hell I should've been able to get an invite with supplying an email address alone.

Hey Gleb, you can send me your e-mail address via PM and I can start investigating for you to see exactly what happened. Without that, it's impossible to figure out what occurred and it's difficult to shed light on the issue.

only me don't receive email of airdrop yet?

What link you have you used to verify your activity? You know you need to give them a link. If you not have done that, you probably not qualify for the airdrop. I have received the mail regarding the airdrop around one week ago. The link to show my activity was just my Bitcointalk-Account.
So this was enough for them.

How long until it's too late to get confirmed? After you have made the first block with all the addresses in I assume it will be too late, and the coin will be fully launched. Will that be in a matter of days, or weeks? I'm eager to see Decred completed and on exchanges.

It's important to give the last batch enough time to get confirmed - as much time as possible, so it looks like the final date to confirm an invitation by generating an address and submitting it will be Jan 25th. There will be reminders sent to earlier batches that haven't completed yet this week as well. Every effort will be made to get everyone sorted right up until that date, but it's important to move on it as soon as you get it. Time is not our friend, unfortunately.

Sound like mainnet will be released january 25, that's why after this date you can't confirm address causfirst block will be minted.

Better don't lay on expectations like this. We should wait and let the thinks flow itself. I mean we have time, the devs have time. We just should wait and work for something without bugs, etc.

If during the testnet period everything will work fine and they release it the mainnet on 25th we should be ok. Till now they kept up with the "roadmap" so we can't really complain.

I don't have a "Online presence with reasonable activity" in this forum
Can I still register for the airdrop?

Don't need be only in this forum, can be an online presence with reasonable activity anywhere
you just need to show that can help in some way
Do you have a portfolio? Github? Linkedin? Twitter? Blog?

Well, looks like I was able to sign up, then receive further instructions on how to participate in the airdrop thanks to Decred having layers of defense mechanisms in place including its staff using myriad means at its disposal in verifying my one-question application - what is your email address? I'm not in a very happy place right now.
