I created this poll for that we will know how many users (excluding newbies) on bitcointalk received their ATS.
I would assume that most of us prefer real data than speculation.

Thank you
for participating!




If you want to read the latest update from ATS then visit the link below.

EDIT: Re-added the no voting no viewing the results option.
EDIT: Added "excluding newbies" as they can't vote and I think that's just how bitcointalk works. I have no control over that one.
EDIT: Even if you don't vote you can now view the poll.

I think his purpose of creating this vote system is to see tally of those who already received ATS and to those who haven't received their ATS yet. This is a good move so we can see the actual count of those who already received the ATS,

BTW it is not 'speculation' if you do the math how many participants their bounty program had and how many accounts have received how many tokens (as impartially reported by etherscan).
Majority, esp. of those who had less than 375 tokens: not paid.

I didn't receive my ATS.I don't know if my ETH wallet didn't support the token
You can check it by going to www.etherscan.io and www.ethplorer.io.

Look for yourself:

They started sending sequentially from high to low from 19810 at page 118:

They started sending randomly from 375 at page 28: (Things were intentionally messed up from here.)

https://etherscan.io/token/generic-tokentxns2?contractAddress=0x2dAEE1AA61D60A252DC80564499A69802853583A&mode=&a=0xa68ba00236769703d30c17f63444cc7b3d509c72&p=28

They started sending to lower than 200 at page 7:

https://etherscan.io/token/generic-tokentxns2?contractAddress=0x2dAEE1AA61D60A252DC80564499A69802853583A&mode=&a=0xa68ba00236769703d30c17f63444cc7b3d509c72&p=7

ONLY 7 PAGES!

The 75 level alone can take up 50% or more of the total number of participants. The 200 level of course takes a greater percentage than that.

But there were only 7 pages of the 118 pages for those people with lower than 200 tokens. Isn't it obvious that most of them were left out?

How many 75 token transactions are there in those 7 pages?

It's clear that they cheated most people with low amount of tokens (especially 75) who are the majority of their participants. Yet some people who already got their tokens (maybe multiple times) are making false claims like "most people received their tokens; only some unlucky people haven't got it." Be honest.
This is good information. I have said before that I believe that most people with low ATS holdings didn't received their ATS as it really seemed they did send from highest to lowest.

If you can give the link to their announcement of how many honest people who participated then that would be great. It's possible that the number of participants they stated might also include the cheaters who they didn't send the tokens to. I don't deny the fact that their are probably false positives.

The thing is they tried to fix their mistake by re-sending but still encountered problems resulting to multiple sending to some wallets, so I don't see it as intentionally not sending.

If they will send more tokens then too many tokens have been consumed from reserved ATS for authors. I hope they will compensate for that.


I certainly prefer real data, and it's an interesting idea to make the poll. One unavoidable problem though is participation - I think the people who didn't get their coins are much more likely to vote than those who did. Many people who did will have got their reward, forgotten about Authorship, and moved on to other coins. But people who didn't are more likely to still be posting in Authorship threads.

So I do think the end results will be skewed and give a false picture.
