I would support implementing Kimoto Gravity Well... nothing else... anything more is not worth the time and agro. I just went through a fork with the Klondikecoin team as a support person... meaning I provided hash-rate... to reduce block reward and etc... has nearly killed the coin... and the team... at one point my farm was mining 4 separate forks. The network hash-rate has fallen to vulnerable levels... sub-200Mh/s... and the trade volume is critically thin... the coin is on life-support... it will only survive by the sheer determination of the community and team. And the products and services that can be bought directly with KDC is far greater than EAC. The miners have left and the buyers/sellers cannot trade... and for the record... I was publicly opposed to the fork.

The one thing that has kept me 'loyal' to EAC is the strength of the coin code. I have never been involved with a coin that can take so much abuse and keep coming back. Only week ago or so during the last x5 rewards day... EAC had a network hash-rate of 16Gh/s... it was getting hammered with spikes of 6 - 8Gh/s without a hiccup... no forking, no issues... to me that is a real testament to the coin dev who wrote the code for EAC. And a matter to not be taken lightly. Anything that jepoardises this stability I am opposed to.

The only real thing that needs to change with EAC is for the Dev team to come out from behind their smokescreens and get dirty. Look at NobleCoin and KlondikeCoin... younger and much weaker coins with much great services and assets.  After 3 months... we don't even had an Android app... Mint launched with their own exchange... don't try to bluff me with your 'busy' behind the scenes, we need to feel secure' stunts. Either there is a development team or there isn't. So far there isn't because EAC has been completely dependent on the community to survive. So make up your minds, either develop the coin or hand in your retirement papers.

You(Centurion76) have to take a lion's share of the credit for EAC being where it is today. You have publicly put more time and effort into EAC than the dev team combined. Can you add Raspberry PI's and Gridseeds to Earthazaar?

So yes... I agree with you...

I think focusing our resources towards branding, social aspects including charities and community, and building our infrastructure may be a better way to move forward.

Yeah I did read it. It was a very good post!

Just Fyi, one of the open tasks at this moment is to allign or atleast flag inconsitancies between our websites. This should only consume time but still this is not being picked up by anyone. Yet it requires no real skills.
And it may sound like I am attacking Biomech with this comment, but that is not intended.
 

PM me with the details. I'm off to bed right now, as it's 2:27 AM and I have shit to do tomorrow, but this sounds like something right up my alley.

I have lots of skills that might not be considered real

I also have a couple promo ideas that just popped into my head. No details until I think about it more, cuz I'm tired and it might end up being stupid. One of 'em involves gambling. Don't know your stance on that, but I'm a gambler and I support gambling as valid promotion. If I do that one, I'll do it on my own hook and say so, but it'll be denominated in EAC.

And with that, I'm off to bed. I want this coin to succeed, and will help in whatever small capacity I can offer.

Also, I have a lot of experience as a manager in food service. I'm not sure where that skill might be helpful, but if you or others have use of it, let me know.

My lack of help has nothing to do with emotion... it called being human. I help manage a growing farm, I am studying a nursing degree full-time, I work various security details, and I am a personal trainer, plus being a husband and father. On top of this I am learning a whole new language and skillset by mining and supporting crypto-currency.

There only so much one can do and as I type this it has been 36 hours since I was last in bed and got any decent sleep.

I am doing my best to find some time each day to do something with EAC even if it is complain on the forums!!!
