[emfox]

Would you please stop flooding this thread by useless and meaningless newbie questions that is completely unrelated to devcoin ?! it is a devcoin thread not pastbin or q&a for anything or bitcointalk help thread !

I check this thread from time to time but found all these long or short posts, and have to read through them all incase i do not miss any important news or progress. it's very annoying.

there is a ignore button, i already had some pages here with all posts ignored lol

I even totally ignored this function...

thanks, the world suddenly became clean and clear

i got tons of ppl on my ignore list, all those with tomany useless posts, its a good ruleset for using the ignore function after doing this for some days/weeks you will only see posts worth reading (those who arent worth count how many of which person, if tomuch ignore too) and so on

What is that a new coin?

No, it's a coin I put together.

devcoin has a secret design a new coin contest.  I say secret because it seems full members and higher have no idea about it.

Here's what I know.


The contest lasts until they get 15 entry coins.

You get I think 2/5 of a share for the entry

First place gets I think 4 shares

Second I think 2 shares

Third place 1 share

The winning coin will be the new face and coin of devcoin but of course you lose all rights to it and they can do to it anything they want.  I tried to fight for 1% ownership but there's just no way.  I'm not an artist in any way which is why it took me entire days to just put together the coin you're seeing and i'm still working on the final image since I have to finish the whole thing and replace the center image to something made from scratch which will include dvc.

Thanks for asking, most don't know there's a contest which is part of the reason I put my coin up.  All these giant coin images might have annoyed some but it sure got the message out that there's a contest so now maybe there will be many more entrants and maybe some with real artistic talent.  I can imagine things like images but I have no artistic talent to get them out of my head.  lol

Yes. I agree. At times it takes me almost an hour to catch up because of those long ass posts. It gets quite irritating.

I just quit reading the long ones from Vlad. I just skip over them, or read a couple of sentences and conclude that it has no relevance to the devcoin project or devtome. Or if it does and its tl&dr I can usually find someone who quoted the small piece worth reading so I don't have to find it.

I just read a post by finshaggy where he outlined a bunch of ways to get the word out on devcoin. Most people are only focusing on bitcoin cause the value is so high not realize that the true potential is in coins like devcoin.  So I guess the first step in getting people actively in buying and mining devcoins is to get them to open up a devwallet.  


One of the suggestions on the list was to give away devcoins to people who open new devcoin wallets.  I know finshaggy already gave away a bunch of coins already, 60,000 I think I saw on a thread he started or maybe it grew, but I'll like to pitch in.  

Devcoin and Devtome gave me a great opportunity to earn coins and I was really amazed at that generosity cause there's simply no business out there that will let you show up and do the work you can and pay you in shares.  Can you imagine showing up at Nike and helping out and walking out with Nike shares?  I can't and that's what's amazing about devcoin.

It's this kind of thoughtful generosity, if practiced by everyone involved, can really help devcoin reach new heights and gain a big competitive advantage over every other digital coin out there, for nowhere can you and get free coins just for opening a new dev wallet.

I earned  some devcoins via writing last round but haven't been paid yet but I did buy some devcoins several times over the past 2 weeks so I have quite a few coins.  Well, not a lot value wise, but a lot number wise.

So I want to propagate the same generosity which was shown to me by giving away 100,000 devcoins from my vircurex account, which will hopefully work.

I'm not sure how to do this for optimal effect.  While I think 1,000 coins per new wallet would be the best way that would mean I have to send out coins 100 different times and I don't know how long it will  take.  If it's an easy thing to do then that's probably the best way, if not  then I'll do the first 25 NEW accounts.

I'm not gonna verify so let's have a gentleman's agreement that if you already opened an account and at some point got some reward that you won't submit it here for a second one.  And it doesn't necessarily have to be new as opened in the last 5 minutes although I would prefer if it were for people who will open a new account because of this offer since that's the whole point, to get more people actively buying, mining or earning devcoins.  

Let's get some feedback from people who have done this to setup the best and easiest parameters.  And maybe also start a new thread so I don't get put on ignore by everyone.


All feedback is appreciated.

Cool concept I may try out the freelance writing.  I just downloaded the wallet my DVC address is:

Good to know, I see your point and I'll make a strong effort to minimize all my posts.  Thanks for the feedback.

It's worth the effort, it's work after a few days but definitely worth it if devcoin becomes something the way I feel it will.

I'll make a list of the first 25 or whatever wallets we determine to get the reward and I'll do them all at once so I don't have to keep logging into my vircurex account.

That and I don't want to use my laptop to log in since I use it for too much online work and seeing how one guy on here already got a keylog virus I no longer log into my account using this laptop.  So instead I'll write them all down and do it all at once, probably tomorrow. 

Thanks for opening a devcoin wallet, you'll be glad you did. 

And now you'll have something in it.

Mods, let me know if it's best to open a new thread and link this portion to that thread so we don't get however many posts with people's account on this thread.  I'm still learning all this stuff and didn't realize some people get upset at non-relevant posts which I think giving away devcoins is.

I have to step out but I'll check back later. 

Some feedback please, would it be best to do just the first 25 new accounts as 100 is to many or is 100 better to reach more people.  There's 100,000 devcoins total.

1. Awesome idea.
2. You should make your own thread, or post about it here:

I wasn't attacking you in any sort of way, you didn't accuse me of such but I am just clarifying. I get on here after school/work so reading through long posts like that before writing or trading or firing up the miner takes precious time away from those things. Giving away DVC is relevant in my opinions because it is helping to boost the economy. I too plan on starting a faucet when I get paid next month, after I invest in a decent mining rig. It's good to see someone new who is so enthused about the whole thing, just try to keep your posts short, concise, and to the point if you don't mind.

I received the last devcoin address, so I asked Mark to make the receiver files. I also sent 23 devcoins to everyone that has not received generation devcoins before and has given me a devcoin address, from the newbie file:
https://raw.github.com/Unthinkingbit/charity/master/newbie.csv

so they can check that their address is correct. Please check that your devcoin address is getting 23 devcoins; if someone is not getting them, tell me immediately and if we get that information within a day we'll check the address and generate a new receiver file. Since everyone confirmed that their address is correct, it is unlikely that any of the addresses are wrong, this is just a final check.

Somehow ppl dont read, thats why i write it in big letters:

DEVDA.CH does not interact with YAHOO, HOTMAIL or AOL
out of security reasons.

Thanks for understanding!

...added some thumbs/up down to the devtome page paragraphs:
http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=devcoin_org

So all - please take a look and edit/suggest/rate as you wish (the orginal page is jasinlee's text, the current revision is my edit, so feel free to re-edit any version)

Re-posting this as lost in the 5000 msgs since. Please add your ideas/feedback as a good homepage for devcoin is quite important.

yes separate threads would be better I think. On the coin, unless you designed all that artistry yourself you may as well stop now. You can't take likely copied work/images and then utilise as open-source. Also, this is of course just my opinion, but I'd rather be blunt and save you some time and effort to expend on other things - but I don't like the design and I doubt many others will. It's too busy. At this point devcoin just needs to get the ball rolling on a simple recognisable logo/coin design.

That's your thread finshaggy, and I agree it's better if it's done on a different thread.  What a nightmare to have to send to so many address.  You don't seem to mind. lol...seriously, can I send you the 100,000 devcoins since this is your original idea as far as I can tell and you can give them out to the first 100 guys.

but guys, go to the board finshaggy just liked to and post your wallet and the first 100 will get 1,000 devcoins each.  that way it's better cause you're likely to recognize names that have come back for thirds and fourths.  lol

give me your wallet and I'll go vircurex and take out 100,000.  man that makes me feel rich and generous but i'm neither.  ha.

I didn't get the 23 coins.  I do have some coins coming from round 23 so please let me know what I need to do.  thanks.

I finished the important part of my devcoin design which goes on top and replaced the current logo.  I don't have photoshop and the friend who helped me last time just couldn't help me out this time so I'm stuck submitting basically pure drawings.  I'm no artist so I had to use tools for just about everything which is why it took me so long.  I was going to add some latin words and some images but I think devcoin management is basically looking for a good idea and any coin which wins will most likely get altered to suit their tastes and needs so then I won't waste 3 more days adding things that are more personal than necessary.

So one would have to imagine this symbol which incorporates the entire devcoin logo: DVC in the image (but it's not spelled out plainly as I tried to make it as new and original as possible and like nothing I've ever seen) and I also managed to get the equality (=) symbol in there without looking like it's just another dollar copy.  For some reason all the currencies of the world seem to put that on so I felt maybe there's a good reason or maybe they're just copying the dollar.

AT any rate, including 2 images (and yes, I cropped them down to size this time, thanks for all the guys who helped me out earlier), one with 3 circles which were in part symbolic and in part to fill in a large empty section of the coin but with them the coin started to look pretty busy so I'm gonna post an image without those 3 circles.

Please feel free to criticize, comment or give feedback - I had the feeling today after a comment was made by one of the mods that the contest is literally in its last days which is why I'm submitting what I have.  it took a lot of work to put together what looks like just a few lines and circles.  Man!








Oh, and I guess it would help to put my original one on here so everyone can see which symbol is being replaced.  The wheel with log sticking out of it....I'm told it's a halo logo which I didn't know.  The new symbol is 100% made from scratch so just imagine this new symbol (above) on top of the microchip/IC wafer backdrop.  I simply don't have the software tools to combine them.





I Hope these help in any way to give devcoin the best and original coin in the entire new crypto currency industry I hope the final winner will be a true work of art for the new digital era.

Best regards,

Vlad

I got a close friend to join devcoin and devtome as a writer.  He is an architect, we graduated together and we're both in similar situations so I got him as excited about digital currencies and especially devcoin as I am.

That said, he did join bitcointalk but he's still a newbie as those 4 hours to go to Jr. level can take a while so he can't post anything including his images.  He thought a coin was just a coin and that the symbol for your coin is what really means something so that's what he focused on but being newly wed he's been busy so he's not quite finished but I told him the contest is gonna be over very soon so he gave me what work he's done on his devcoin symbols to post. 

So here they are, his alias is already written on the images so I don't have to post it.

All comments welcome, I think he has to choose just one to enter into the contest  so please feel free to state which one you like or which one(s) you don't like.  Thank you.
