Not sure if the countdown is finished but a new layout was just revealed. That I am assuming was the big countdown. There doesnt seem to be any functional difference.
That's all? They redesigned their web site? Big deal.

Thanks, would have been nice if they included a link to that in their new UI, or mentioned it in their announcement.
No kidding.
While I applaud their efforts, I really like the minimalist design of the classic site and hope they keep it around. The functionality looks to be about the same.

lol. You know somebody is clueless when they quote Wikipedia on their Home Page.
Having no desire to deal with UI bugs, I cancelled all my bids & asks, and will come back in a few days when their bugs are all worked out. They should have done a soft launch of the new UI, and allowed users to "preview" the new UI for a couple of weeks (and work out the bugs) before forcing all users to the new UI.

It seems like they fixed the bid glitch I had described. My bid is no longer greater than the total balance in my account which I wouldnt have had to re-place if they didnt delete it in the first place.
I think they're still debugging or at least tweaking; a pending order didn't show up for me a minute ago but it does now. I also have to wonder if any of the "rally" of the past day or so came because of the MtGox timer -- people expecting something bigger than a UI overhaul maybe? I hope not, but you never know.
I wondered this myself too but if it was then we will see a rapid decline which I do not see happening any time soon. I have to wonder if the user/manipulator will move his/her bidwall at 2.625 seeing as its looking less and less like it will get filled. Also what a move of that wall to $2.80 would do to the markets.

Also one functional difference I found is that I can make buy orders at least with more money than I have in the account and I dont think it will recognize it until the order goes through. This means fake bid walls could be created very easily right now. Not sure if the same thing could be done with sell walls. I wonder if we will see anyone using this manipulation technique while they can.
Seems they just deleted my pending buy order. Hopefully just because of an update but I dont like that bug.
I notice the load times are slow too... Could be everyone checking the new layout at once or maybe it is just too much for their servers to handle. Regardless they make enough to buy sufficient bandwidth to support an infinite number of users. Lets hope this is a temporary problem.
hmm it seems mtgox screw up something again, every letters in the bitcoin deposit address is capitalized!!!
Looks like they just fixed the all-caps.

I'm not digging it too much. I liked being able to see both order boxes at the same time. Takes forever to load too!
Edit:
I DO like the drop down chart though!

what gonna happen 1. dec? mtgox have some kind of countdown thing.
That's when they take the money and run. That would be the ultimate scam. Give people a countdown and if they still have money there they lose.
Imagine the shitstorm.
The last time it happened (at least the off-line and frozen funds part of the equation), it was actually, and surpisingly, quite the snoozer.
I had been planning to try to clean up if/when Mt. Gox cashed out, but have given up on that and come to the conclusion that they are strong and among 'th good guys' which is where they stand in my book at this time.
Right that would be something bitcoin wouldn't recover from, at least in its current form.
But hey it's a Nagle post after all... maybe we should put him and cypherdoc in one room and see what happens, that would be equally entertaining

I had not seen that much from Nagle and certain of the other more vocal 'Bitcoin is finished' crowd. I figured they finally went ahead and did their buy-ins near the $2.00 range which left just a few of their ilk empty handed and howling for the $1.xx which may never come.
I highly doubt that, more likely they got bored of bitcoin in general.

Armageddon

MtGox buys Dwolla. Except that was supposed to be on the 15th.
