I'm sad I missed the release of this coin though as it has a far greater exponential decay in mining rewards than Quark did with 50% of the coins mined in the first 10,000 blocks
Trust me, you weren't missing much! The difficulty at the time went through the roof, so any dreams about being in first and mining craploads were dashed straight away...
I still mined a lot more than I do these days of course, but nowhere near as much as I expected to!
