On top of our proxy filtering and protection in place already we have also implemented the following on the Spacedrop and Faucet:
$ips = explode("\n", file_get_contents('/Tor-ip_list_ALL.csv');
if (in_array($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], $ips)) {
echo 'Sterlingcoin Spacedrop cannot be accessed via Tor.'; die;
}
Basically this bit of code says if the IP address matches one in Tor-ip_list_ALL.csv to tell users "Sterlingcoin Spacedrop cannot be accessed via Tor".
$ips = explode("\n", file_get_contents('/Tor-ip_list_ALL.csv');
if (in_array($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], $ips)) {
echo 'Sterlingcoin Faucet cannot be accessed via Tor.'; die;
}
This bit of code says if the IP address matches one in Tor-ip_list_ALL.csv to tell users "Sterlingcoin Faucet cannot be accessed via Tor".
The rest of the website is Tor friendly.

Thank you for this information.
If Option 2 is the final choice, the 'Post Code' and 'Telephone' fields will be dropped and we will simply log IP addresses and block proxies to prevent misuse of the Spacedrop.

Your welcome ofc.
The Bad-Behavior script is quite good for preventing 'abuse' issues: http://bad-behavior.ioerror.us/about/ when combined with a php http:BL API Key.
EDIT: Blockscript - http://blocked.com - is actually free for a certain number of user requests per. month and blocks numerous open proxies. Your server requires the ioncube loaders for Blockscript.
You can also find updated proxy lists here: https://www.iblocklist.com/lists.php - and a list of Tor exit nodes from the Organizations tab. I do not really approve of any website blocking Tor exit nodes, although if you were to only block the space drop page for the initial giveaway, then I guess its not so bad. It would help to ensure a fair distribution.
Non-collection and/or minimal collection of users data, where possible, is certainly the best option.
Thank you very much again and this information will be utilised on the Spacedrop and Faucet to ensure entries are made fairly and as you say "to ensure a fair distribution".

Option 2 is best option for spacedrop.
That's 3 votes for Option 2 & 0 votes for Option 1 and 3 here on Bitcointalk.
1 vote for Option 2 & 0 votes for Option 1 and 3 on Facebook.
I think we can all see where this is going...
Firstly, very much looking forward to the launch of Sterlingcoin - good job guys !
Option 2 for the 'Space drop' - will probably provide the best overall distribution for Sterlingcoin to those who are interested.
People will always find a way round an online application system, no matter what safe guards you put in place.
For example, here is a short list of free UK sms / text dump websites:
http://hs3x.com
http://receive-sms-now.com
http://receivemysms.com/
http://www.chaka.biz/
http://receivesmsonline.com/
http://www.freeonlinephone.org/
http://www.receivesmsonline.net/
http://receivefreesms.com/
http://receive-sms-online.org/
The UK DDI: http://www.ukddi.com/ provides up to 10 free UK local numbers per. account for most area codes for voip users.
Postcodes are easy to find and their are countless free UK based proxies.

The only downside is the pricing though. Sending an SMS to any country in the world would cost a flat rate of 29 Eurocents, which is quite expensive if you ask me. The BitSMS folks realized this would put off a lot of people, so they made some changes! - JP Buntinx

Do bear in mind that option 2 means that people with more than one person in a household who wish to use the Spacedrop will not be able to do so.
Still vote 2, screw my wife and kids.
Nothing like a mans love for his family

Please take your time to read the thread. We are in prelaunch. Launch is on the 20th of September.
You can still pre-register on the mining pool.

2 sounds good to me!
Although not a perfect solution, it is rather novel and that, in itself, might make this viral.

Spacedrop Functionality. You Decide.
After consideration, conversation, mediation and a lot of thought we have decided for the community to decide the functionality of the Spacedrop upon launch:
1. Spacedrop gives 1-50 SLG (randomised) per entry to everyone (3 entries per IP address).
2. Spacedrop gives 50 SLG per entry to worldwide audience (1 entry per IP address).
3. Spacedrop remains the same, we remove the telephone and post code requirement and limit entries to 3 entries per IP address.

nocne coin had ATMs even DRK
We're not stating we are the first to have ATMs. We hadn't even planned on this eventuality.
Just a chance meeting between us and the SatoshiPoint owners at one of our merchants.
