Determine drop date?

[monaghan]

Dumb question time

The top of the forum shows

Suspended UK Domain Names Dropping Today have a renewal date of: 28-06-2007 and 05-07-2007

How do you determine which of these dates to use (other than wasting a whole day on the early date ) Is this anything to do with pre-nominet domains or another "secret"?

 

[jonno]

if the name doesn't have a valid registrar then it'll drop on the earlier

 

[tifosi]

detagged or registered directly with Nominet.

Used to include pre-nominet names (now showing pre-1996). Ah, the good old days! No dac & plenty of bugs in the drop system.

When I joined the forum that was a closely guarded secret and it took me months to find that out.

What's going on ????? You'll be posting DAC scripts next

<?php
$domain = "internet.co.uk";
if (available($domain)){
   reg($domain);
}
?>

:mrgreen:

Using (any part of) the above script is on condition that if I get 50% commission on any future sales or revenue.

 

[monaghan]

you forgot to include the library code for the available() & reg() functions

I've tried your code but internet.co.uk doesn't seem to drop???? I think there may be a flaw.

You missed out a VERY important line

<?php
$domain = "internet.co.uk";
if (available($domain)){
  sleep(30);
   reg($domain);
}
?>

Ah, well spotted!
That's what you get when you try to type up code too quickly.

 

[monaghan]

If everyone else's code is so good, then why do you need the newbies to wait before trying to reg, surely you'll have been there and already claimed the domain

So what's of interest tomorrow then, I'm still building lists at the moment and haven't got round to adding all the 3 letter combinations (lower priority, knowing there's no chance of getting any of them anyway).
