This is one of the more clever scams I've seen.

Here's how I suspect it went down:

1.  Max (who pushed QRK -- you guys saw how that turned out, right?) paid some guy to build a Keccak GPU miner implementation (it's not hard, source code is available freely [1])
2.  He then uses his fame + name to peddle a new coin using the Keccak algorithm, which no other coin uses
3.  Sheep go baaaaah. Much profit.

any gpu miner avaliable for sha3?

Yes, there are several ones out there. Question is whether they work with MaxCoin's implementation of SHA-3. A fixed miner will definitely be available soon after launch. On top of that:

Will there be a GPU miner at launch or no?

this will be just cpu, with mining starting off with the inbuilt miner in the wallet, then work will begin on other miners.

Less than 40 minutes to launch.

Thanks for no premine regardless of any bot net farm issues that may or may not occur.
