Ok, I'm done! I promise, I went to each and every one of these links. Whew....

Let me tell you first how I eliminated some of these. I did not count the link it if it was:
-  not written in english, (obviously, I need it in english to use on our site and I wasn't going to google translate all of them, which was probably 20% or more of those submitted, sorry I didn't think of that orginally, but english only).
- an announcement (hey! Check out Daniel Larimer coming to Atlanta)
- a blog that pointed to another article  (ex: a brief paragraph with, 'hey, check out this artice Joe Blow wrote') ....there were a lot of these
- was just a list and happens to mention us (ex: here's a list of 10 alt coins you should look at).
- a repost of our own content (hey, check out Stan's article on LTB), etc.
- and lastly, if I had seen it before, I didn't count it.
I was more than generous, giving credit at times for things that were certainly not "articles or press."

Thank you so much for everyone who contributed. I had no idea I'd get so many submissions. There were certainly a lot of nuggets I found in the list that we can use. Please, don't ask me about whether a specific link was counted or not. I was fair with how I counted these and I don't plan to go back and recount. :0)   

Also, keep your eyes out for new bounties from marketing - I have some more "Easy Money" bounties that I'll post soon for those of you who are good at finding things.  All that being said, here are the winners and how many PTS they have won.

Jernau - 4PTS
38PTSWarrior - 13PTS  (congrats on quality links and being super fast to post them. Most of the articles we'll feature came from you).
ffwong - 4PTS
Nutterboy - 1PTS
Troglodactyl - 1PTS
Currencydebt - 5PTS
CryptoVape - 1PTS

So we can get these paid today and for bytemaster's convenience, please re-post your PTS address after this post.  Thanks again.

Bigger Than Bitcoin!

Brian told me he would have the final list approved by noon EST (2 hours from now) and then I will pay it out by 5 EST (7 hours from now) which should give 2 hours to confirm prior to the snapshot.

Hi Todofixthis, please write this link on the spreadsheet next to your name. It was coincidence. Apologies accepted, everything alright again. Go linkers!

That's very kind of you 38PTSWarrior, thank you.  I have updated the spreadsheet and referenced your post.

I'm glad to see you back on this thread.  I know things got a little tense earlier, especially with the deadline looming; it's been great to see the passion that we share for these projects in action!

Note that I posted this before the previous post was edited to include it (I'm sure it was an oversight).

Thanks for helping get us paid. Because you activated the filter, I can't see why some of mine were rejected. These four in particular...

Hi currencydebt.  Sorry about the confusion.

• http://www.btc126.com/btc/other/274.html - I rejected this because it looked to me like a how-to article rather than a news story.  I see what you mean about http://www.bi126.com/news/pts/2014-01-05/398.html — I accepted that one because it was a news story about Keyhotee's launch that also included how-to instructions, so I counted it as press.
• http://valdeandemagico.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html - I rejected this because it's an aggregation page; the actual article URL is http://valdeandemagico.blogspot.jp/2013/11/el-bitcoin-500-dolares.html.  That article does appear to be valid (and unclaimed), so I'll go ahead and switch the URL and mark it as accepted.
• http://btcgeek.com/cryptocurrencycon-2013-complete-coverage/ - This was a genuine mistake on my part.  The two paragraphs about Keyhotee and BTS were all the way at the bottom, and the rest of the article wasn't specifically about I3, so I mistakenly thought it was off-topic.  Fixed.

Appreciate the explanations, your spot on. Thanks for the efforts.

[70231f697a2b3c2b]

As a reminder, here are the criteria I used to evaluate URLs:

I'm looking for formal articles and stories written from large or small sources, well written blog posts, etc. In other words, something we'd be proud to post in our Press section, without editing.

There's a lot of room for interpretation in there.  If I rejected an article you posted, please don't take it personally.

I understand that there's money at stake here – your money – so please do make sure I got it right, and call me out on anything you think needs to be discussed.

And again, I'm really sorry about leaving the filter on.  I've disabled it now, and as jernau noted, you can also make a copy of the spreadsheet if you want.
