Wow Searing...that sucks...
I knew playing "Survivalist" was necessary when the upgrade boards went so fast...
what was it... three minutes...seven?
3 days for 1200 units was a-ot longer than I thought they would last...
KNC machines are like "unobtainium" now...
Stay @ the sharp & ready if you want a KNC machine...
The general public slots are most likely going to go just as fast...

The upgrade units were a bad joke, the fact that rigs were modular and we were told we could upgrade them was key to many, yet most people never even saw them available or knew they were on sale until too late. I came home and it was done and dusted. Didn't even get an email about it. Not upgradable for me at all simply because I couldn't have seen them in time and they won't be available again..the new rigs aren't compatible even if they have spares to sell. Looks like most of the Oct rigs aren't upgradeable now due to that.
All they had to do with any of these items was give us a heads up roughly when they'd be available...then someone who already funded them with batch 1 would have the chance to make sure they had that 10k ready to spend. People with their finances in order don't leave large amounts sitting doing fuck all when it should be earning interest or working for them no matter what that ignoramus just said.
Allowing people to buy 10 that they won't actually use while others can't order one ...that's bad too. With a little thought they could have limited numbers per customer for a few days to give more people that "loyalty reward" instead of people sidestepping the whole thing to supply them to new folk for a profit.
I wonder if there's a different list for Chinese orders, the batch split in some way? Going to be a case of when in the day they are announced to some degree if now, China gets 1st dibs and they may all be gone by the time the rest of us wake up.
