It must have been FastHosts that deleted questionnaires.uk - not sure how a user could have done that without it being on their tag

You can request to have a name deleted on your nominet account or through the registrar dashboard.

There are 3 scenarios that I can see:

1. The user got cold feet and deleted as described above
2. Fasthosts or nominet deleted it
3. The user quickly deletes it to re-register it so not to raise suspicion - not saying for one minute you actually did this Greg but somebody might or maybe the user did and you renewed it before he/she had a chance. It is how I would try to cover my tracks, but I would have probably waited until 3am to do it.

None the less nice catch @gregfindley , I had a £50 backorder on it if you want to sell?

 

[DJ]

Is everything supposed to drop by midnight as I've still got a fair few I am watching?

 

[cyberpunk]

@cyberpunk - Your multiple server tactics and those tricks you said you knew must have worked very well to get nine.uk... Now the drops are all done you can share your tricks you said you had with everyone on here

When I said tricks I meant coding optimisations and strategies, not flaws At the start of the lockdown I thought I'd dust of my domaining project and like you @Hay I've spent months coding away as I was gutted I missed the RoR drops last year. I have to say, I've really enjoyed the past 5 or 6 months doing this. Some days it leaves me frustrated and other days I'm buzzing from the catches. Whilst I was only bantering with you before, I do respect what you've achieved. But I'm still coming for you

I set out with the sole intention of securing soph.uk for my daughter in this RoR drop and had no plans at all of buying any other domains. Then I got into this thread and ended up spending a small fortune on UKBO and still have my eye on a few of the auctions I am in.

I am sure I will regret a fair few, but you kind of get carried away scrolling down such a long list of great names.

Anyway, I have enjoyed the ride, it is quite addictive, and I am sure I will be filled with regret in the morning.

Looked this morning. I got invoice at 12:02 , so unlikely it dropped after midnight would have thought . How can you tell if it did ? Would that be unusual ?

 

[Murray]

Don't shoot the messanger. Seems he's been pretty open about it all.

Admitting to a crime means you did the crime

 

[Gill]

Admitting to a crime means you did the crime

What crime have they committed Columbo?

 

[Murray]

What crime have they committed Columbo?

Taking an asset they know didn't belong to them that they had no right to do

I think you're defensive of it because you did it also? is your tag cambridge?

 

[DJ]

@Siusaidh revelations.uk is available to hand reg

 

[Murray]

Admitting to a crime means you did the crime

Ok maybe crime was the wrong word, not 100% of the legal repercussions all though I believe it should be criminal

If stealing any small physical item from a person is a crime why shouldn't a domain that could be worth millions

Admitting to an act still means you did the act* better? @Gill
