Fast coin, great rewards, the name has "board appeal" and real buzz potential imo, ... and xpool servers are only 100 miles away

I'm on board for as long as the devs are.
My $.02: Over time, the inconvenience of ("1st generation?") slower coins will weigh on their value and usefulness (i.e. LTC). Bitcoin is the exception as it's too public to be replaced anytime soon, and would only shake public confidence of cryptocoins if it was.
Furthermore, I think the average consumer would expect a digital currency to be instant to consider using it over fiat. I know if my mom was waiting for 6 confirmations for BTC, she would think her internet was slow or that she needs a new phone. Something fast like DGC sidesteps all the currency spenders' inevitable, collective frustration while waiting for services.
