Seriously, i didn't know they had plan to stop it then, as that doesn't show up in voting options. Or is that your opinion that they should have done that?
But since it's now 53 months (4.4 years) more mining, they most likely don't need to do any new plans for the token until mining is over. This waiting is just pure agony. This has so much potential if there only would be decent game theory planning involved. But i guess that's not interesting to the team as it doesn't matter to them what's the token worth.
They didn't have any plans to stop it and it is not really fair to blame the team as they asked their players what to do for the mining and the majority wanted to extended the mining. Lets give some them some time also; till date they haven't really disappointed us (except for not updating the roadmap) and I am pretty sure they have plans on what to do after the mining is over.
Betfury was the initiator of that vote, and it seems to me its team was even more interested in extending BFG mining than users because, by doing so, they gave themselves enough time to come up with new features for the BFG token. It's also worth noting that BFG mining is one of the key features on the Betfury site, and if they had not held that vote, all BFG tokens would have been mined back in mid-autumn.
