I don't know if this is of interest to anyone else but I stuck the RoR release lists through DAC (starting at around 6pm each day) to see who had the best "luck".

I'm intrigued to know if anyone is holding their quota back, running a quick DAC check after say 10 seconds and having 50 seconds to decide which they'd like from what's left...

Run your dac check immediately if they’re tier 2 you’ll get some

This tag is very quick too:

Internet Software Limited [Tag = WOOD]

Who is behind that the code for that one ?

They've been pulling up trees.

Anyone know why the Austrians are registering .uk names ? What kind of names are they going for ?

One of those tags is owned by the (.at) registry ?

Probably because business is global, just like .com it's registered worldwide.

Just sold my first .uk

In hindsight I wish I concentrated on names/second names more, they're going to be easy xxx sales on the whole

 

[philiporchard]

Well done. Which one did you sell?

 

[Murray]

Well done. Which one did you sell?

A second name

I've actually had enquiries on 3 second names so far with xxx offers, yet to seal the deal on other two yet, see what happens.

 

[Gav]

Where are you selling them?

 

[Murray]

Where are you selling them?

Landing pages from domainmanage.uk and whois

 

[TRUK]

Now the infamous DoGoddy a(u)ctions will start to see who can fart further

Edit: Semi-infamous DL auctions can also start to see who can pee further, too

To anyone that backordered with 123-reg, have you received your refunds yet? I spent £1k+ in 10 orders and they've only refunded me about £70 in separate (per domain) transactions!

 

[TRUK]

Nope. Because the owner is a damn good catcher and programmer. Check realtime.at. I wish I could have used them too.

About the same here

They've partly refunded, not fully

I paid via PayPal and my Debit card transactions has showed back up
My Credit card ones haven't but PayPal say refund is complete.

I am sure they will come, there was a few domains I had booked with them caught by one of their partners and moved over to them so I am sure they are working their way through as fast as poss.
