Its a little disconcerting to see how flippant burnside is about $2mil of investment....

The right thing to do would be to re-open bidding for 24 hours - we only lose a single day and EVERYONE gets an ACTUALLY fair opportunity to invest.

We don't want this - for sure a whale would come in and dilute everyone's share to <1%..then hold their own auction style ipo...

*YOU* don't want this....

Fair, I would assume most though

i wasn't addressing LABCOIN with my reply. just stop flaming at burnside. if he is anything, he is the victim of a, well, messed up IPO

He could have fixed things however, but he chose to let it go. He even admitted he screwed up but didn't care.

He could only have 'fixed' it by screwing over other people.

AND despite the OBVIOUS BUG they carried on with it

That's the part that is the most upsetting, not the bug itself.

Not to mention the wrong time announcement etc.

Anyway, those who got them, enjoy your cheap shares.
But be consistent and don't be surprised that others are totally disgusted tonight.

I'll just smoke some weed to calm down, I think. Yay.

Hey, looks like the script is finished! I've now got an order placed for about 42% of my original bid!

That better than mine - mine is showing 39.3725%

I don't remember the exact number I bid actually, it was slightly more then I'd first planned since I deposited enough coin to be able to bid over the price, back when people were saying the shares would just go to whoever bid the most. Then I went back and reduced my bid to 0.001 with a slightly higher count.

It won't be 'fair', it will just allow people with massive bitcoin hoards to place massive orders while everyone ends up with 10% of what they bid.

Stop being such a whiny baby.

Burnside, these coins not showing up was obviously not done on purpose right?

No, certainly not on purpose. The deposit system usually takes a couple of deposits an hour, not hundreds. Sad

We'll beef it up obviously for future use, but any time you come across a new mode of business like this you find new bottlenecks.

Extremely frustrating for sure, but 99% of the users are still way better off than they were 20 hours ago when we were looking at doing it auction style and frankly, even if you missed out you may end up paying less for the shares now than you would have had the auction style IPO run it's course the way things were getting bid up. (hard to say for sure)

Props to LABCOIN on this one for opting to go this route. They could have been greedy and stuck with the auction and made 2x the coins...

You've fucked up burnside - you could have saved some credibility.

guys, calm down. the LABCOIN hype started less than 24 hours ago. who could have known that there will be THAT much buying pressure?

That's exactly the point, Swede said that there would be 16-24 hours of notice in this thread of an exact time for the sale to begin. He lied to us.

EDIT: It's not showing up on the 'orders' tab, but if you look at the order book, there are now exactly 7mil orders and the 'cancel' button has my share count on it.
