I'm sorry, I don't know. Arthur said the next episode or the one after. The auction for the slot was not due to end until 29th Nov though so I think there's plenty of time for an aspiring delegate to put something together.....

General Discussion / Advert slot on Beyond Bitcoin Show available for delegate not yet in the 101
« on: November 27, 2014, 11:14:10 am »
I've paid (35k ltb) for an advert slot on the Beyond Bitcoin show for a delegate who would like to market themselves in order to become one of the 101.
If you are interested, please contact Legendface66 / Arthur by PM
This is a great opportunity to showcase the idea of network employees marketing themselves and competing to be a 101
All the best

Stakeholder Proposals / Re: Sponsorship Slot on Lets Talk Bitcoin - Beyond Bitcoin
« on: November 26, 2014, 07:50:35 pm »Simeon II and I are in the process of bidding for a sponsorship slot on Legendface66's Beyond Bitcoin show. The slot is intended for one or two BitShares delegates who might be interested in talking about DPOS and the delegate role.....for more specifics you'll need to contact Legendface66.
If you are interested post here. There's no reason to think we shouldn't win the bid so far. The bidding ends on 29th November 2014.
I'm not sure if Simeon II wanted to be one of the delegates or not. He can have first dibbs
^^
Little birdie tells me the OP contain statements that are not quite truthful.....
Oh wow I completely misread that. Legends show? My apologies...he needs to get paid for his work. I have no issues with this, I guess I completely overlooked legends part in that quote. He isnt paid by adams delegate and even though he can be an impatient f'er at times, he does work hard.
And teaching about delegates? Now that is a soft spot of mine...
No worries
It's all good. Now i'd be very happy if this flurry of comms has produced a couple of interested delegates....Let's take DPOS to world!

« on: November 26, 2014, 05:25:30 pm »Actually LTB is great and I think being upset at ABL or his show is a great way to know you're a BTS zealot
Strong words toast--and completely misrepresentative. You have been around long enough to know that many of the issues we have had in the past stemmed directly from his actions.
Fuzzy, you are a tireless advocate for BitShares and I respect you enormously. All I ask is for your consideration of a couple things that are important to me...
The Bitshares community should never close it's door
Relationships can and should be rebuilt, regardless of current perspectives
Legendface66 is a part of both this community and the LTB community and he wants to feature BitShares tech on his show
BitShares does not need our personal protection, it simply needs to be the best product
I have no evidence for why a delegate has not yet come forward, I just hope it's because they're all too busy. Whatever has been said or done in the past, let's move beyond it and embrace opportunities where we find them. I genuinely believe the BitShares community will be better for this view in the long run.

« on: November 26, 2014, 02:47:13 pm »I have a feeling people in this community no more like LTB ..
Me, I can't participate now as I will be mostly offline for some weeks now ..
No worries Xeroc, hope you're back soon and good luck with whatever you are up to.
I hope that isn't the case, communication issues on the forum aside (which we are all susceptible to,) Adam is a fantastic advocate for the technology and LTB is an excellent platform with growing reach. BitShares is an inclusive, helpful community and I hope we become known for the allies we make and partnerships we foster.
It is only very occasionally that communications in the forum result in a more sensitive or defensive reaction.....

« on: November 26, 2014, 02:40:00 pm »Im not sure why people aren't interested :s
me neither....one can but try. I guess the main delegates, many of whom must be Chinese, are all quite busy at the moment. I'm hoping for a last minute turn around

Rand Paul has disgraced himself and Bitshares should distance itself from RPC as far as possible. Should anyone expect anything else from an incumbent....I don't think so.

General Discussion / Re: BitShares REloaded Site is up! The New BitShares.org Check it out!
« on: November 20, 2014, 12:25:16 pm »
Really appreciate all the hard work! It's really looking great.
I really like the colour/branding/font of the Partners page http://bitshares.org/partners/
Could the blue-white-turquoise colouration be used throughout to link the areas together and improve legibility? Also, have you considered having the absolutely awesome BitShares symbol more prominent, revolving perhaps, at the beginning of the first page?
What BitShares is, is not coming across as well as it might if I imagine myself as a beginner....probably because it is so many things.
BitShares is...
software that you can run on your home computer
software that connects you to all the other people using the BitShares software
a network
a blockchain, which is both a record of the rules governing the interactions across the network and a record of those interactions
a unit of account within the network
a decentralized marketplace (or decentralized ledger) where people can exchange units of account
democratized money
collateral for other units of account
Bitshares software enables you to...
exchange units of account without having to trust a 3rd party
retain privacy levels of your choice
exchange units of account with whomever you choose, at any time, from anywhere with both the BitShares software and an internet connection
exchange units of account at very high speed
exchange units of account at very low cost
exchange units of account securely
hire network employees
fire network employees
create BitAssets, another unit of account which are derivatives of the BitShares unit of account that are pegged to other units of account (both physical & virtual)
create your own unit of account
Earn interest
BitShares represents...
Freedom
Security
Sovereignty
Resilience
Innovation
Trust in Blockchain, not people
Integrity
Vision
Community
Free markets
Just some thoughts.....
