That Jody lady is quite rude in that post....I bet it's BFL_josh

I mean they are shipping units around a year after order and like 9-10 months after they were initially promised. I believe customers have a right to be angry.

She should be a bit more professional. Sorry that this isn't exactly relevant to this thread.

"All Single SC shipments are from paydate June 23 and will be for awhile." -- Judy's blog.

So does that include you, Garr? I know you're "first" depending on interpretation.

Actually, I got a shipping notification on that order today, the 1656 order that Bit-Pay confirmed to be first.

This order doesn't belong to Cognitive or myself though, because it was originally my own and I've sold it already.

P.S. Does BFL Josh actually have the authority within his organization to refund your order without your expressed consent?

Honestly, I do not know the legalities of this. I see it as a wrongdoing, as many BTC were put forth to secure this order.

Josh has agreed not to cancel any orders I placed, so this should in no way affect Cognitive.

My sincere apologies go out to all Cognitive shareholders who may have worried over Josh's threat of canceling our orders.

Heh.

Request to make a motion for a full BFL refund, and another to just auction off the entire preorder.

Sadly this is not in our best interest, because they will refund in USD when we paid in BTC.

I will be happy to raise a motion to auction off the remainder of the BFL hardware. Can someone second this here before I raise the motion?

Please raise a motion to auction off BFL hardware pre orders.

This seems like a bad idea to me. BFL has begun shipping Singles and we still have 7 upgrades on order right from very early on, right? What was the order number again? I don't think there is a better alternative than just waiting on BFL at this point - maybe hedge with some AsicMiner shares?

Edit: Oh... Read the whole thread. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2515499

If we can get in on this in the next 4 days: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=235329.msg0;topicseen#new
Could be very beneficial. Face value 16 BTC, min bid (as of this post) 1.75 BTC

Good news for cognitive: https://forums.butterflylabs.com/announcements/3272-customer-appreciation-chip-credit-program.html

Indeed it is!

I'll raise a motion within a week polling whether we should buy chips or sell the codes.

Yup I've already begged them to do this... never a response out of them regarding it.

Good thing our order is pretty low!

Assuming they do ship Grin

Maybe we can pay more money to have them do that?

I think Yifu was asked the same question. Good of him to dismiss it, i thought.

Everyone else who ordered singles would try if they already haven't causing people who haven't received their jalapenos to get pissed.

Anyone else wish BFL would just send 12 jalapenos for each of our singles?

Actually what happened was my dividend script ran before my growth fund script, making the dividend 2x what it should be.

Daw. I was hoping, that this was due to "increased" mining.

That should be soon, with BFL shipping finally

As of now: No.

I do not want to purchase any hardware, especially with Cognitive's funds, that does not have proof of existence.

I'm always on the prowl for new hardware though!

You mean like BFL and Avalon? :-P

I understand, although I think you should reconsider if Bitfury confirms the chips next week.

Garr, are you considering the Metabank ASIC as an investment opportunity?
