Guys can you chill a bit pls? You're just winding yourselves up. This is more than a little stressful, but they are still working around the clock. I personally have had to take a day out as my bodyclock was ruined after such little sleep last week, culminating in such a brief trip to the US.

I'm still trying to sort my head out and work out whether I plan to stick around in Sweden for a bit longer, permanently, or not.

With that said you're well aware that what was achieved was momentous, no one has partied yet, and these guys are working around the clock to have these units in you hands. They have not done anything underhand at anypoint, so whilst one can share sympathy for those mistrusting and burnt by companies before, this is absolutely not what's happening here, so drop the conspiracies. It's a mega hardworking bunch of guys working as close to 24/7 as their bodies physically allow and unforeseeable issues will occur, the best resolution is to adapt fast and remain calm.

...

Hope the above settles your nerves a bit, but understand this is a huge undertaking for anyone, and there are enough bodies on the case, that was never in question, moreover too many cooks would almost certainly spoil the broth. KnC want nothing more than this to be done right, and do care about getting your orders both in hand and online. Please appreciate what's been done, and what's currently being resolved is a considerable amount of work, and that no one is resting until that is complete.

Although to be fair I personally, had to take a day off as my central nervous system was fried after traveling multiple time zones, and sleep deprivation, as well as to hug my unworn clothing I hadn't seen for a week. I hadn't come to Sweden prepared to be thrown head first into this.

Here's a video of how the boards are populated I uploaded last wk, but forgot to share prior btw; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFfAHjSmlZM

Also i'm going to try and make the Stockholm meet today which should be in a couple of hours if I can. No idea who, or what to look for though...

I've made the mistake of thinking on a 12hr clock in 24hr clock land. Almost missed my train.

Bugger. Thought this would be at 9pm, not 9am!

By logging into the portal, most likely.

Hey KNC/Bitcoinorama, thanks for making us beg for an update.

Good to see pretty much no answers in your post obama.

Regarding data centre:
4 boards, 1 controller board and connect one ethernet cable. To use your favourite word - BOOM! Now how is that "more laborious than originally expected". So, a total no-answer on DC delays.

How about some answers to these questions:
1. How come the sub-standard cgminer from KNC?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3294238
This post suggests the KNC version is not doing a proper work restart. Any reason KNC are spending 9 days releasing firmware updates that doesn't even fix these issues? I'm fairly sure the guys who wrote cgminer could sort this quick fast. Anyway, I expect no-answer on this one.

2. How come boards are bbq'ing?
I know you wrote a post a few days ago trying to blame people for unplugging cables while the miner was still powered up, but that was scapegoating. There is plenty speculation on the hardware issues causing, but a total no-answer on this from you/KNC. Anyway, I expect no-answer on this one too.

they gave me schetchy looks when i told them that this was the 2nd burn we've had

Hey Bargraphics, how did you got that info? by email?

Funny thing, when i mentioned this to you previously, you said you were NOT helping them at all and 'merely expressing opinions'

Had it not been for you personally over enthusiastically vouching for them i would NOT have paid for my order.

i am over it now, but i was not impressed by your conduct in previous times.

i like you more now, the new, more honest bitcoinorama....  it would seem travel & expenses bring out the better in you.

now back to packing!!

The fact is each board has an individual owner and that owner has to be able to configure certain aspects of each board, choice of pool etc. You are therefore not given a proportional 'virtual' share of what's hosted, but actual physical and configurable boards located in your own physical space in the hosting center; i.e. your own board(s), and thus these need to be individually assigned, and that is considerably more laborious than originally expected.

Thanks for this detailed explanation. It's much better than any information I did receive vie e-mail from KnC.
(But getting some info today about the hosting via e-mail made me calm down as well.)

I assume this is the "wallet" address, or?

I still did not quite understand the current "setup" - I assume it's something like this:

All customer miners in the hosting facility were configured to the new KnC (or some other?) pool with the above
wallet address. KnC did a semi-manual payout for all customers of 2,5BTC per Saturn and 5BTC per Jupiter.
This static setup will continue to mine until the web-frontend for the customers is ready.
At that point the owners can re-configure their miners with whatever (single   ) pool they want.
When the dust did settle there will be an update for the web frontend that will allow the configuration of a backup
mining pool as well or KnC will perform a manual setup of the backup mining pool  

A short confirmation would make me (and hopefully many others as well) happy

I've logged in an verified I have 11 Jupiters running.

Looks like they are getting it operational!

You wish!

I emailed them about it, if they say it will void the warranty then I will run it as received until it breaks.

...
Yes there are freshly generated coins entering the wallet the refunds came from. That's not a covert mining farm minting coins to refund. That's your hosted devices up, and running. Hosting is live. The issue is configuring the API to your accounts and that is being sorted now.

Sorry, i see how stupid you are. You do not know nothing about B2B business and about law in EU for companies.
BTW in my country is it criminal offense and police can block bank account for it. Next thing is company insolvency. For us KNC failed with September delivery. We did business based on September delivery. We do not accept changes and we want price compensation or refund.
I understand for fanboy it's hard to understand, because we are not sponsors. We are did not build company what need money theirs costumers and not to fulfill the terms. We must hard work to make money. We also do not live dreams about get rich by KNC. We only protect our moneys and investment based on September delivery where KNC failed. Next, no one us contact of this situation, no one wanted to solve, they only changed date of delivery. We have never seen such behavior. For us it is unacceptable. It is reason why do not want more do business with KNC. When we failure in business, we have to pay. As you can talk sheep what knows nothing about their rights. But it's your problem not our.
