Paul, thanks for the names, I only just got them but we did have a go last night at a couple and had no joy and going through the logs, we've discovered a serious issue that needs ironing out, so we're still working on things.

I know but that's the point, I just don't chase names pro-actively but some people seem to get peeved when a list is posted. You maybe not but I'm sure you'd agree that it's a greedy business this, the fact that these names cost £5 and can be sold for £000's brings out the worst in a lot of people.

Cheers Aquanuke, I tell you what you as you had already posted this list and I wouldn't have chosen to go for them you can have any that I catch as a way of thanks for posting the list in the first place. I liked that, I could hear people tearing their hair out when I saw the list and it put a...

You can't do it Sean, because that means the man with the biggest purse always wins and that doesn't appeal to me. If I was a greedy person as Edwin said I'd be grabbing the names myself. It's easier just to work with a few people who you can trust to pay you when you grab the name. All of this...

Edwin, We have a new application that works within Nominets T&C's and we believe that IF it's a level playing field we will have SOME success, that's because there's also an amount of luck involved. IF the application proves successful then we will offer it as a service but if it falls flat on...

Rob, I genuinely have one TAG and if you read my posts here you will see that I say that I remain skeptical that this is down to nothing more than a fast server and the skill of the programmer.

At last, DomainBrand, if we catch the name you can have it :D Edit: False start, Figures.co.uk is already registered ( renewal being processed )

Rob, it's a very simple question but I don't see why knowing my identity is relevant. It's all pretty academic anyhow because not one name has been posted and not one PM received. If I'd posted five 3 letter domains for £150 each in the for sale section, my in box would be full yet I offer to...

You shouldn't I'll come on gloating if I win and I'm big enough to say it was a major failure if that's the case. It's funny how cagey things are around here, no one trusts no one and all for something that costs £5. Strange what greed can do to people.

The thing is Edwin, anything that was worth registering would have been registered by that date and using that list along with annonymous proxies would have allowed you to keep an up-to-date list, yeah some will have fallen through the net but very little worth knowing about. Let's say that...

You might not have one but plenty of others do.

Your words not mine. Correct. The implication being what, that if you don't know what names are dropping you aren't a competent coder?

We're not interested Edwin, there's too much work involved in building lists and we don't have a copy of the registry like a lot of you and this makes it doubly difficult. We've decided that it's better to sell the pan and spade rather than go for the gold. As I said, we won't catch...

But with only one tag ( puts tongue in cheek ) even the big players would surely welcome a chance to cover their bases on a no win no fee basis, that must be a attractive option. The idea is to go for a very limited number of domains a day in order to register the best names.
