They'll just keep doing the half again rule. 1 day delay, followed by a 12 hour delay, followed by a 6 hour delay and so on. Technically you can do that forever
My issue isn't really with the time to get it back up... it's that they keep saying they're delaying it. Why not just say we'll open in a week, and then open 3 days later and look like heroes?
I agree. People are arranging the life around their deadlines. So just say a week, and then even if you get done sooner, you will just have more time to test your system. Quote

That's horrible. If they say it's up in a week, I won't come back for a week. If it's up in 3 days, I just missed out on the "great exit" that will occur in the first hours. It is better for them and us to keep pushing it back every day.

While the delays are frustrating, they are just trying to get it absolutely right before reopening. I still trust MtGox.
WHY??? Seriously, I dont get it. I dont have any money tied up there, but DAYS ago I was furious at this guy, and I knew this shit was gonna go down like this. What makes you trust him? Im not flaming you, I really would like to know your reason, maybe I am unaware of something.

Better than nothing dude, seriously.
Think of the opportunity once the market opens. There may be a price drop we all can profit from.

[Update June 24 - 02:56 GMT] Pushing until 15:00 GMT.
We have found that balances on some older accounts look significantly incorrect when compared with the old database. At this time we do not know what caused the balances to be off, or how many of the older accounts are affected. We haven't touched the old backend or database, so we're going to import the accounts again once we have found what caused the off-balances.
No money is lost, we still have the records of all transactions that happened prior to the bitcoin sell-off. All funds deposited are still in our bank accounts, and we're going to try and get this resolved by 15:00 GMT.
We look forward to getting everyone trading within an hour of getting users logged in and accessing their accounts.

postponed another 12 hours
It doesn't say that. *yet*
EDIT: I stand corrected.
postponed another 12 hours
...or maybe he Mark was just waiting his new fake id to ship from SR or darknet alike, and now he's Pablo, a poor Mexican farmer that crafts MD5 hashes in wood sticks for living... 
Empty Gox...ohhh lawdy
Just got a message from Mark Karpeles over at Mt. Gox:
"We just said we'd be open June 25 at 3:00 GMT. We did not specify if that would be in 2011 so TECHNICALLY we are NOT late in opening."
"We just said we'd be open June 25 at 3:00 GMT. We did not specify if that would be in 2011 so TECHNICALLY we are NOT late in opening."
It'd have been nice if they'd specified it to be 3 PM GMT.
I assumed 0300 GMT, meaning 10PM EST, June 24th.
aka 11pm EDT, since most of the East USA is in daylight savings time
Gotcha, I knew I'd flub on the DST calculation.

Edit: err, I guess I did the math wrong and it is at 11 PM EST?
