TBH This token is fucked. I got paid twice. 7k+ Token. According to them, that's $1K USD with no investment, just referrals. Let's see how lucky we get to see the tokens on an actual exchange

Same here, I originally earned 2030 in refs, then I paid 150 to a guy who didnt get his payment, then today I got another 2030... Praying for it to hit the exchanges at $0.15 for a free $500 lol

I'm curious... has anyone contacted the company behind seriousreading.com?

and ask them if it is true there is any relation between seriousreading & authorship

They answer your question themselves at http://authorship.com/about-us/

Quote from: Authorship

We are both IT experts and book lovers. We are the team behind SeriousReading.com , a 3 years old book marketing agency with over 2,500 monthly active authors.

yeah I noticed that before but has it been double checked? that's my point
but no worry mac1as has replied/answered my point

I contacted their FB site, here is my post about it

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.21993027

good... so they (seriousreading) acknowledged and confirmed it
if anything happen to investor money, we know where we should point our fingers
and ask for refund and/or responsibilities...
but I wonder why they never mention authorship project on the seriousreading site?
or I simply just missed it and not looking in the right place?

Again, this was a mess but I really DON'T think it was a scam.

They simply wanted to weed out the "cheaters" - problem was, they weeded out the honest people too. But looks like most everyone got their tokens and I think problem has been solved.

With that being said, hopefully we can hear from the devs. Seems they have been quiet the past couple days.

A lot of cheaters got payed

True. But there was likely no realistic way they could perfectly weed out the cheaters without lumping in a bunch of honest people too.

Let's wait for 4 more days. They said that they'll be returning on Monday(25) with the news about the exchange listings.

Got mine as well! That was a roller coaster experience. I hope all of us learned something from this Authorship experience. And I am HOPING for the next referral scheme like this, they will already have structured, clear and strong implementation on how their program will be secured from cheaters and will not cover those who did legit.

Now my question is, will this incident affect the price of this coin on the exchanges? Please give me your thoughts since this is my first token I got. haha.

I think not. Authorship already said that they already talked with some exchanges sites about the incident and said that it's just normal for an ico. I think that the incident won't affect the price of the tokens.

Received mine 3 hours ago. I can't blame authorship because it's their first ico.

It looks like they are working their way down now.

Todays payment run included approx. 1K people, bringing the total number of Ether addresses holding ATS tokens to 9837, and they started with those who had earned (or not) more tokens, working down towards the plebs (like me) who have not yet been paid.

Threshold for today was a bit over 1000 tokens, so hopefully the rest of us is paid over the next days.

Kinda sad that it took all that mess and a mob with pitchforks Grin

to make it happen, but it seems they were - kicking and screaming - dragged back to the path of righteousness.

Good.

I would like to see something like Authorship succeed, and if their current team manages to own up, fix the mistakes, shake off the dust and continue to build the project - I would applaud them.

Could have been easier, but hey... some people prefer to learn the hard way. Does not matter, as long as they DO learn.

Cheers to all who helped to raise awareness - and kudos to ATS team for growing a pair and doing the right thing (at least it looks like that, right now, even if most of the midget-affiliates have not yet received their tokens).

Just to let you know that I finally received my tokens as well.

I've never doubted about Authorship integrity.

They made a huge mess and probably they have been overwhelmed by that situation.

And they are sending it by amount of tokens, largest amount first, and then lower, and lower.

well, I guess I am an hour or so away from knowing if they are following their own rules....If my amount passes without them delivering my ATS, then they will be firmly in the SCAM column in my book.

In the interest of full disclosure, I have now received my ATS. However, this does not change the fact that Nolan, Peter and crew REPEATEDLY attempted to avoid paying out.

I got my tokens at last, not a scam, maybe they were overwhelmed by whole situation. Thank you forum for putting pressure, may all ppl get their tokens (and my referrals too).
