    • Bitsapphire - The web development group that makes disruptive startups happen
I would like to participate as a delegate in the testnetwork.

Servers located in either Kosovo or Albania. If need be we can get a DigitalOcean VPS.

What performance do the servers require?

Any profits will be used to build 3rd party apps on top of the BTS ecosystem.
Back our bid as a BitShares Delegate! http://bitsapphire.com/Bitshares-Delegate

The top 100 volunteers can start out being a delegate just for the fun of being there when it all begins.

But if you want to remain a delegate, you will need to get and stay elected.
Now would be a good time to start practicing making the case for why you are among the top 100 best delegates in the world.

Example qualifications:

You are well known and trusted.
You have a wickedly high performance and reliable node.
You are located in a diverse geographical location or legal jurisdiction.
You appeal to a big demographic of which you are a member.
You are cheaper than your competitors.
You promise to do something Truly Worthy and Inspiring with your earnings.
You have a cute icon or a clever delegate name.

 :)
Should be interesting.  Will there be a section on the forums where members can do their campaigning for election as delegates?

I'll ask Amazon to decide how to handle this...

sounds great :) - here we go with dpos node icon germany ... let me know your thoughts...

Of course I'm in too. I'll use AWS or similar service in a region that makes sense and ultimately organise a dedicated server.

In Mumbai, India; but I would need detailed steps. I have somewhat of a knowledge (burned BTC for XCP for instance), but have hardly used Linux.

Also, once in a while (average every 3-4 months), theres a power outage. The good thing is that they usually inform us in advance, so is it possible to announce beforehand and take the delegate offline for the period?

Tl;dr, raising hand half way.

My hand!
I think I would host it at DigitalOcean (San Francisco) or Linode Tokyo.
Perhaps change to South Korea IDC later.

I'm in. I can use vps on any main city of China if needed.
I suggest anyone who really want to be a delegate should depoist some PTS as "cash pledge". For exampe, 100PTS. If some one can deposit 1000 PTS, the possibility of becoming a delegate is much more.
Is this a good idear???
