I can confirm that at least one of the winners on that list sent me pictures of their new S3 from s0br the day they got it. I am the one that told my friend about the pool, and aside from being a bit jealous, it is legit...it is hashing now.
It does however seem that the contest has ended, and it isn't in fact, every day this month (unless he's about to announce the second half of the month now). If so...I hope I win, if not...mining here has consistently been paying out...but I may do another comparison later today to see what pool is worth pointing at.
Proof or it didn't happen. As others have said previously - words mean nothing here.
OK, here's the deal:
@ s0br: Nobody else, no more sock puppets - this is to the postman himself:
Stop hiding behind your fake "support team" and prove me wrong. Show everyone here that you have shipped the miners you say you have - tracking numbers, delivery confirmations, label pictures or whatever - but it's got to be solid, undeniable proof - not the sad excuse of a pic that your abusive support member ThePhwner posted here. That's not so hard is it? If you mistakenly burned all the documentation, contact your "winners" & tell them to post it - I'm sure they'll want to help you out, seeing as you've been so generous to them.
Do whatever you have to do, but if you don't, I guarantee you I'll open an official scam accusation against you & your sock puppet crew on this & other forums exposing your BS lies & you can kiss your scamming pool bye-bye.
For the record: I'm not anti any pool. But I am anti scammer, anti theft, anti bullshit & anti fraud. Too many miners are getting stitched up - period. If you prove me wrong - I will retract all my accusations & apologize unreservedly - the ball is in your court. Do the right thing, or get royally screwed the way you're screwing the users here.
Up to you.
Why should anyone have to prove you wrong with wild accusations? Innocent until proven guilty where I am from.
I am one of the winners, and have no affiliation with the pool. I was just informed I won yesterday and requested a tracking number. So we will see. I wouldn't say that these guys are a scam. The pool operator seems to have background in a industry related to what hes doing now, this is the first attempt to do it with bitcoin. So, really its up to you to prove any of these accusations. Because if you can, I would be willing to listen. But as of now, its all hearsay?
Also, this pool is paid promotion on google, that tends to lend to the credibility of the longterm vision, over a quick PnD. And from the bonus already, I can go days with no payment and still be better off mining here as I have been for a few weeks now.
Multipool.us just switched all it's mining hash over to this pool as well.
