30th NO DROPS?

[SF]

Hi Guys,

My system is not showing any drops for tomorrow, is it something to do with leap year?

Thought the Leap Day was in February ?

The Domainlore drop list is also showing blank for the 30th.

Hmm, mine is also blank for 30th, I'd not thought about it as occasionally the drop list creation fails, so I'd assumed it was one of those days.

That's the reason I reckon. All the droplists I've checked are blank.

Mine's blank too. Think it's to do with leap year.

Was there the same problem in March and April ?

 

[RobM]

I didn't see any problems in March and April. This is the only 'blank' day I've come across and it seems to coincide with 29th Feb.

I was to do with a leap year a few years ago because some of my old names back from 2004 once renewed added an extra day onto the expiry ie

27-Feb-2004
28-Feb-2006

I remember thinking back then it was unusal to have one extra day but it does make sense if you think about it.

 

[Marcoose]

How annoying. What has May got to do with Feb though?

Ignore this. I just read the post above.

Nice to have a a rare day when I don't have to wade through drop lists!

Perhaps suprisingly I don't think I've ever looked at a drop-list for more than a few seconds.

1. It's totally mind-numbing and mostly boring
2. you occasionally find your self stopping at absolute crap domains for No reason (Happens more the longer you look at the damn list)
3.Before you know-it, one or two stick in your mind and you justify to yourself, your reason for registering/capturing it
4. You place it Sale on Acorn with the following comments:
A. "Everyone was after this one"
B. "Caught this earlier today"

5. Observations - Time better spent chasing the domain list that you really want. The domains that you could even hope to capture with a standard booking cost ( ie £30) can't really be that good these days. You don't see many posts these days that say "This is a domain caught for me be so-and-so" for say £30 thats a great purchase

Strange i have (1043) domains listed for today, 30-05-2012

Just scanned the list just over 279 have gone so far today.

Thanks, Darren.

 

[RobM]

Strange I've got info for millions of domains and none are showing as renewal date for 28th Feb. Could you PM me a name please (obviously I'll understand if you don't want to)? You may have hit a niche

 

[Darren]

Im only joking

 

[RobM]

lol bet I wasn't the only one who thought I'd dropped the ball
