I'm now in an embarrassing position. I am at University in China. I was telling my friends, some Chinese some not about Bitcoin and how they should move to something like NXT if they are worried about the Government closing down exchanges as we are politics majors and have various discussions on government control etc. So over a week or so when I met friends in the Uni on site coffee shop I set them up with Bitcoin wallets showed them how they work and sent my own money to them to take part in NEM and told them they needed to log onto this site and ask for a stake.

So I come to check my stake and there is a sarcastic remark on the google doc and all the wallets I legitimately set up and paid my own money to are now highlighted in Cyan! You said one account for one stake and you also said tell people about it and spread the word which is exactly what I did so what the hell?

I'm pissed cause I assume I'm being lumped together as a sock puppet maker which I cant disprove or prove I realize either way. Am I even gonna get my Bitcoin back. I promised these guys I would get them into something I now regret. Its gonna be really embarrassing when they ask me what to do next and I say sorry the money is gone.

By the way if I wanted to hide my tracks I could of easily, you don't study and use the internet in China and not know every possible way to hide transactions and communication. So I took the offer at face value to spread the word about NEM and how wrong was I....

Now come down - take a deep breath - better now ?

I can't find that remark in the stake holder list - which google doc are you talking about ? What are the account names of the other fellas you are refering to ?

Either you get your stake or you get your btc back. If you have bought multiple stakes with multiple accounts you should be alright and you guys will get your stakes. It's a promise that was made on the frontpage and that promise will be kept. NEM is about fairness remember ?
The only people that need to be afraid off being refunded or loosing their money are people that bought more than 10 stakes no matter how many accounts they used.

Its in bright Cyan on the Google doc, I am calm. I didn't count but I expect it will be a couple over 10 accounts. I know how it looks but I paid in full, did them in good faith and now get lumped with fraudsters.

You're talking about tha hash check spreadsheet - i see.
Well you can't blame us for thinking that >10 newbies payed for with the same account could be someone trying to get an unfair amount of stakes. Also being marked does not mean anything other than that there's suspicion and you already said you know how it looks.
If all your buddies are willing to chip in and contribute in our movement that there will be no problem. If you're the only one who is ever going to be active then we'll probably refund you at least of a couple of stakes but ultimately that's not up to me. There will be a public auditing where everyone will be heared.

In any event you will NOT loose any money.
