The UK ROR 'WHO GOT WHAT?' thread

Cheers to ian on here snapped my local geo Wirral.uk for me today. Now just have to find the time to get my development hat on

How early were you lads going? I was messing around with timings and going early but by milliseconds
 
Can't believe it was that early. It seems everyday I've underestimated just how early to go and I was reluctant to commit too much quota to find out.

I got the ones I really wanted for work, which made it worthwhile I guess, but between some proper screw ups with configuration and underestimating just how early we needed to fire, I haven't capitalised anywhere near as much as I would've liked.

It fluctuated a lot. In the test bed I'd sometimes get the best results by starting at 2PM. In the last week I had USLEEP (PHP) set to go from 13:59:59 at 960000 to 980000 and I'd get varying results. I suspect the top catchers were starting around this time and flooding with requests for the same domain but I didn't go for it fully.

We caught 4 from this list, not a bad catch, but missed on k.uk & z.uk

That was for big players I guess

I did try for k.uk but then when it came around to z.uk I knew it would be out of my reach so didn't even bother trying.
 
Also happy to help anyone with registrations - as long as there aren't too many requests!

Didn't get the really big names I was hoping for today but I can't be too unhappy:-

hdd.uk
hungry.uk
itsecurity.uk
learned.uk
lasersurgery.uk
middlesex.uk
jst.uk
grandad.uk
maplesyrup.uk (wife's Canadian so there must be a use for that one somewhere)
hunger.uk
hottub.uk
insuranceclaim.uk
giv.uk

Also got lacanshire.uk and glardeing.uk but that is what happens when you put your lists together at 5AM! o_O
I got grandma! What a pair.
 

The Rule #1

Do not insult any other member. Be polite and do business. Thank you!
