I agree but in their defense, it was posted in these forums multiple times prior. Considering you're reading the thread, you should have seen it as well. I'm also brand new to Byteball, but I actually follow what's said, so that's how I knew about it.

Who has time to sift through over 500 pages of BCT posts? The information is not clear in this wiki either. https://byteroll.com/airdrop These resources should be updated to be more clear that it is the 1st block after the full moon, not right on the full moon.

So, instead of reading, people post the same questions over and over again to bloat the thread.

They [byteball] can't say the first block, cause what if there is an issue and it's 2 blocks.  Then all the dumpers would complain again.
So, instead, it clearly says.....
"In the 7th round, which is scheduled for the full moon of July (July 9, 2017 at 04:07 UTC)"

It is SCHEDULED.   Bitcoin did not solve a block at that instant.  It was solved 13 mins later at:  04:20:40.
I am 'scheduled' to be at work daily at 8AM, but I never get there at exactly 8AM.

If the site said that it was AT the full moon, then there is reason to complain, but so would all the people that transferred bitcoin seconds prior with 'unconfirmed' balances and hope to get paid on different addresses at the same time.

Ranlo - Only just found out about Byteball.  I figured you would know about all the various coins.  Smiley

All they need to do is add a few words that make it clear that the snapshot is of the next block solved after the full moon. It's not redundant information and gets rid of any ambiguity. Also, if I want to read 500 pages, I'll read a good novel, not a BCT thread. Furthermore, people coming into this thread and posting questions, even if they are redundant, should be welcomed. It demonstrates that there is new interest in the coin. I think it bodes well when people are friendly and answer the questions rather than tell them "google it" or "read 500 pages of this thread to find your answer."
How would you feel if you called customer service and the rep on the other end told you to "google it" or "read the 500 page instruction manual" and then hung up?
