Re: [ANN][FLAP] FlappyCoin ★ 0 Premined ★ TRADED ON CRYPTSY ★ GAME INSIDE WALLET
FLAPPY COIN HOSTILE TAKEOVER
Well maybe not so hostile given the current Devs are currently AWOL and the coin has hit rock bottom... also it would not technically be a takeover but a hard fork (There is currently a team looking to do just this with Litecoin). This has been proposed a few times in this thread, but I think it might be worth doing. Details below:
How would it work?
Technically it is not that difficult, the real hurdle is in the implementation and adoption. As the scrypt is all open source a new wallet can be created and a block number set to hard fork the coin. As of that block all users would be required to update their wallet and mine on the new fork.
New Dev/Team
These members would have to be agreed, and not just to cover technical side but anyone with enthusiasm and time to spare. It would also present an opportunity to change any details of the coin we wanted, block reward, difficulty retarget (adopt digishield?), scrpt algorithm (X11?), total number of coins etc. etc. Any ideas/innovations could also be built into the wallet or planned for a later update.
It may also be worth contacting the other set of Devs who were going to release a Flappy Coin until this one jumped the gun, they still hold a lot of the flappy website addresses and given the circumstances would probably be happy to help.
In order to avoid confusion it might also be worth changing the name slightly so people can be sure which fork they are on, (FLAPZ?)
Pool Operators and Exchanges
We would need the cooperation of pool operators to either agree to replace their flappy wallet with the our new version and advertise the mandatory update, or alternatively they could run both a FLAPZ and FLAP pool in unison. I don't see it being a problem getting at least a few pools running in time for the fork. As for exchanges, again probably not an issue getting listed on the B-list ones early on, but like any other coin it needs community support, liquidity and value to get listed on the larger exchanges ... which can come with time.
Personal Wallets
After updating your wallet you will inherit all your existing FLAPs you mined/purchased prior to the fork, which would now be FLAPZ. After this point only mining/transfers between the new wallets would be recognised by the new fork and it would not be possible to transfer coins between FLAP and FLAPZ chains.
It is also possible to keep both wallets in the short term, so if you had 1 Million FLAPs before the fork, you would still have 1 million FLAPs after the fork + 1 Million FLAPZ in the new wallet on the new fork.
Adding value and direction
This is not worth doing if the end result is just a clone of flappy coin. The coin needs ideas and innovations, many which have been suggested in this thread, agreeing these and a direction is a must.
Currently FLAPs price is about as low as it could be and the mining difficulty is really low. So everyone would have the chance to mine and buy coins before the fork, which should help with an even distribution. After the fork there will also be over 50% of coins left to be mined so scope there to.
Way forward ...
STEP 1: This idea needs support so copy this and add your comments in this thread
STEP 2: Agree on the Devs and Team leaders
STEP 3: Modify the code, create the wallet and set a block number for the fork
STEP 4: Ensure pools are available and new website etc.
STEP 5: Count down the blocks and see what happens ...
So will you make a fortune off this, maybe not, but as a Flappy holder you have nothing to lose and if nothing else it would prove an interesting experiment in this ever evolving cryptocurrency landscape.

You think FlappyBird brought back will help the coin? Maybe?

So much negativity here.
I actually like that the devs for flappycoin aren't addressing these negativities with making any excuses or talking back to them. They're just updating and creating new features and building up this coin. It just shows they're here for the coin and community (and not their pocketbooks). At least that's how I am seeing it.
I figure it would take time for this coin to saturate through the markets and get out there. We'll see what happens. I figure those in this trying to make a few quick bucks are the negative ones. Those in it for the actual coin will eventually profit from supporting this coin and community.

Don't forget to vote for a new logo here ^. You're all in a cryptsy rush (for good reason), but just don't forget to take a minute to vote.
Re: [ANN][FLAP] FlappyCoin ★ 0 PREMINED ★ COPYRIGHTED ★ MANY GIVEAWAYS ★ V1.0.0.2
If you guys are part of the reddit, one of the dev's last activity was 9 hours ago adding google 2factor authentication to the flapwallet.com (beta)
see here: http://www.reddit.com/user/flappycoin
While I'll agree, maybe the dev should hop in here and give a status update, maybe he's busy with the long task list?
For those comparing to other coins that just launched... were they pre-mined? Maybe they bought their way onto other exchanges with it. This coin is 0 pre-mined, so things will probably move a bit slower.

Agreed. It's pretty addicting (like the game, haha). Well, and the coin, since I'm mining FlappyCoin.
Re: [ANN][FLAP] FlappyCoin ★ 0 PREMINED ★ COPYRIGHTED ★ MANY GIVEAWAYS ★ V1.0.0.2
By the way, did Flappycoin Developer died and with him any news relatively for this coin?
The dev's have been active on bringing more features to compliment this coin. The latest work is an online wallet (in beta):
https://flapwallet.com/
Check out the front page of this thread, as there's a lot they're planning to do.
I'll be working on a faucet soon. An easy and simple one. I'm not too fond of ones you have to signup and then have a min cashout amount.
Let me know if anyone would be willing to donate for the faucet. I plan on putting 100k of my own FLAPs in it to start.
Domain already registered. I'll be developing it soon and should have hosting figured out. Not sure if it'll be high traffic or just a few users here and there as this will be my first faucet.
We'll see....

Ok Coinsnstuff, you've convinced to start voting at mintpal on a regular basis.
While I enjoy the low difficulty of the coin, it won't go anywhere if it's not on more exchanges, so I'm in for voting regularly. On the plus note, it's a really nicely designed site. I'd enjoy trading FLAP on there.
Site: https://www.mintpal.com/voting
What I didn't realize:
- You get 3 votes per hour, even if you're not registered.
- You get 6 votes per hour if you're registered (I registered)
How to Vote:
1. Find the row for FlappyCoin
2. Click 'Vote Now'
3. The number will turn bold and increase by 1.
4. ? ? ?
5. Profit.
Other numbers for other coins will turn bold, but that just means other people are voting for them at that time. It kinda confused me at first, but took me a few seconds to realize what was going on.
Let's get FLAP on that exchange.

Re: [ANN][FLAP] FlappyCoin ★ 0 PREMINED ★ COPYRIGHTED ★ MANY GIVEAWAYS ★ V1.0.0.2
This is one faucet I know of: https://flappycoin.bitcoinproject.net/
I'd suggest leveraging social media as well. Get those tweets out there. Get those posts out there. Retweet and Reblog. Hashtag it. Instagram it. Let people know what new exchanges you're on now, etc.
Many people still don't know about it and I'm sure it will get out there, but continuous updates on the feeds will help it along.

Thanks, bluewhackadoo! I signed up just to post that, lol. I've been meaning to signup but that was a good incentive for it.
So far I've mined a million FLAPs, so heck yea I'm supporting it. Let's take this coin to the skies......

It is important to stay active fit and flappy. I'd like to help out the community and send 10,000 FlappyC to the first 10 posters who can prove they are a tried and flew dyed in the wool Flappy fans.
Post a screen shot of you scoring over 5 in the Flappycoin game side by side with a window open of you currently mining FlappyCoin, include your FlappyCoin wallet address and you bank 10K coins.

3 of 10 stakes taken, been a good day mining, raising the payout to 20,000 FLAP. Will be sending an additional 10k to the first 3 posters to get them even w/current payout.
Flap on.
