I wonder if the devs would consider a compromise. Forget the presale stuff, just release the coin properly one week early, which would put it on the market 6 days from now. At least it'd be a normal release then.

We scheduled the release on August 10th, in order to give us an adequate time for testing.
Releasing it earlier was considered as well, however then we would risk rushing and releasing with issues in the mainnet.

If you need the extra time to make sure everything works properly, then yeah, just stick to the 10th.

I think the issues that some have with the presale, and I'll include myself in that bunch, is it sort of reneges on the promise of a possibility for those on the wait list to still receive coins based on people asking for refunds. I realize it is likely that most won't get coins on the wait list, but some will, and have... so doing an early sale sort of differs from what most people assumed were the rules.

That brings up issues of devs living up to what they say they will, as well as running a poll, where honestly, the results were really known before the poll even started. Any ipo that sells out and offers a poll on a presale will get votes to sell coins early ... as there were people who don't have any coins at all as they missed the ipo, and still want in. They will simply vote 'yes' in order to buy up the coins they missed earlier.

I don't mean this to sound like it's the end of the world, or a huge, huge deal... just that it's sort of a bad way to start off distribution. I also expect many on the wait list will have a rather sour taste about this whole thing.
