We came first, before slush by 30 seconds. Not sure why our block was rejected.
Wizkid, how many nodes are you connected to?
According to blockchain.info your block wasn't seen for over 20 minutes after slush's. Don't look at block timestamps, look at the *received time*.
2013-11-16 21:11:51 for Slush
2013-11-16 21:34:25 for Eligius
Even more than that...Slush found the block after his...10 minutes before blockchain.info saw a single node relay the Eligius version of 269982.
EDIT: Okay...maybe ignore the above. I'm seeing some *weird* timestamps on the received time with Blockchain.info right now. Still, you should never base "which block came first" by the block timestamp since the timestamp is not reliable.
So "Time" in
http://blockchain.info/block-height/269982
Is not the received time?
