It seems that my selection of poloniex to pester to list XCP and getting XCP right next to mastercoin on coinmarketcap all happened. It sure didnt seem like it was easy to add XCP, and my guess is that most other exchanges wouldnt have stuck it out through all the issues, nor would they have been able to get it working as fast. Tristan is the best!!
Now we steal mastercoin's thunder before they are able to get any real world release out. The cat is out of the bag and now everybody that didnt know about counterparty will immediately compare working software with almost software.
I usually dont beg for tips, but I think I deserve one in this case. Feel free to express your euphoria!

James, what would you say are the next 5 most influential sites where we should get the word out about Counterparty?
From here, it fragments a lot. There is a second market cap site, can't remember it, but it wouldnt hurt to get it on there too. cryptocoincharts.info is a must!
I think a nice in depth article about XCP on bitcoinmagazine.com featuring the upcoming HTML wallet would be powerful. Even without that, getting active with reddit promotions, etc can start the planning phase. Want to hold off until web client is ready for any big marketing push. Working on an in depth article will take time, so we should start now, hopefully it will come out right around the time the web client is released.
I have suggested to Tristan to add an XCP/MSC pair. I think somebody here posted about letting people sell MSC to buy XCP, so I figured if the direct XCP/MSC pair was the only way, the market will have a way to directly trade how they are comparing counterparty to mastercoin.
By the time it is XCP 10 vs mastercoin 1, then bigger exchanges will have added counterparty on their own initiative. I dont think we should be pushing for any more exchanges as Poloniex is handling the current volumes nicely and he deserves to make some decent profits. In any case, we have Dex so all we need is one centralized exchange that people can buy their first XCP.
