Fixed for you.
So basically Hirocoin without all the extra features?
It's Litecoin using the same algorithm as DarkCoin and HiroCoin.
Litecoin used the scrypt algorithm from Tenebrix.
We see a huge growth of hashrate coming from scrypt ASICS.
We feel it's time to move LTC to another algorithm that makes it ASIC resistant and more decentralized.
very nice

caant wait for dev to make a statement about this Cheesy
Actually we hope to get the official developers for LTC to work together with us.
But we don't expect them to do so.
We won't need them to do this though. We need you.

what is this , a new? 
cooler than scrypt.ati-asic 
agreed
agreed
So litecoin cloning darkcoin now?
piss off.
piss off.
im all about x11
Ah, what a delicious provocation ! I love it.
Good luck getting enough people to accept the fork though. Do you really think all those people with ASICS or ordered ASICS are going to brick their investment ?
Instead, why not switch to an existing X11 coin ?

I am all for it!
We, a team of Litecoin supporters and developers, are not satisfied with the current development of LTC.
That's why we are working on a hardfork for Litecoin to make it ASIC resistant.
This way we like to keep it decentralized, so no large ASIC manufacturers like KnCMiner, Gridseed or Alpha-T can takeover the network when Scrypt ASICS come widely available.
To lower the footprint of LTC and retain GPU mineability, the algorithm of our choice is X11.
We would like to hear from the Litecoin community if other changes, like to the difficulty algorithm, are preferred too.
Please keep this a nice and open discussion, this topic will not be moderated as we think everyone has the right to free speech.
More to follow, so stay tuned.
The LTC X11 team.

Damned good news for LTC!
Well, this is interesting news, if it can be done. I do think that the time is right, while scrypt asic is not yet widely spread.
Best of luck.
Best of luck.
We need the majority to support this to make this hardfork work.
Well that you certainly won't get so why waste your time?
You are not the majority, neither are we.
That's why we will be working on getting the support of the majority.
The blockcount of 564,480 may be too early, if needed we can postpone this to a higher blockcount.
We need support this!

well possible .. but this could escalate quickly 
Do you think BTC or other coins should have a hardfork to save themself？
