doublec's namecoin exchange experienced a hard drive failure during a very hectic namecoin buying frenzy. The price increased more than 10x in a few hours on some exchanges, and all of this traffic presumably broke doublec's hard drive with all of the exchange information on it. feelsbadman.jpg

According to http://exchange.bitparking.com  post on April 8th, 2013:

Work is still ongoing in recovering the transaction and wallet data from the exchange drive. I'll report here when I have more information. If you have data that will help identify you as the owner of an exchange account please send it to the email or bitmessage address at the bottom of the page. An address you deposited to or withdrew from and your account name, contact details and a namecoin/bitcoin address to send funds to will speed things up. Those that have already sent details I'll contact within the next couple of days all going well.

I would contact btcguild directly about acquiring previously mined namecoins. I am not sure what their policy is and/or when they ceased mining namecoins.

I used to have two Namecoin wallets. One on Bitparking - http://mmpool.bitparking.com/user/MzS7sYMzymgNqVspWf4R38k4V23DVs7jgL
And the other on BTCGuild when they did the double mining thing.

I logged in to bitparking today after a loooong time and I can't find the 250NMC I mined there.
I've been GPU mining happily with BTCGuild and have't bothered logging in for a while. I don't know what happened to all the NMC I mined concurrently with BTC there.

Did something weird happen to NMC? Were my funds just taken? I am not sure what's going on with this.
