September .uk drop discussion

Yes, I took a look at that one. I'm actually surprised it's gone unchallenged. I've only acquired mine as a hobby thing. I don't pre-suppose it will go unchallenged and it's not a financial venture.

Now goths.uk and chimneys.uk may be a little more useful financially. None of these are exactly healthcare.uk... !
 
@cyberpunk you seem to have a lot more success than anyone else i know of on here... and you appear to be covering 24 hours... Anything you need to tell us regarding your tags before its leaked? ;)

I wouldn't say I have that much success but I'll take that as a compliment! :) I've spent a lot of time programming my own catcher and researching where to host it. You get out what you put in.

PS. I only have the one TAG.

You get out 200ms and 5 requests when covering 24 hours lol which your beating multiple other people going at 200ms or faster so certainly do take is as a compliment as you have done the impossible haha :D What programming language do you code in? You must be quite familiar with networking, routing and peering then given your hosting with the right people?
 
"and you appear to be covering 24 hours" - dont most people run for 24 hours?

i've been programming for 20+ years and I work for a systematic hedge fund so i know a few tricks!

2 servers @ 400ms each, less than 1ms to Nom. that's all i'm saying :)


If you know a few tricks please do share them lol... there is enough domains for everyone! So your sending at 400ms over two different servers and still beating people? Your much better at programming than me then for sure lol

If you have two servers surly that means you have two tags haha ;)
 
"So your sending at 400ms and still beating people?"
All the domains I've caught today were on my secondary list. I've caught none of the premiums I was after (yet, fingers crossed).

"Your much better at programming than me then for sure lol"
The fact that you've caught 2 of the premiums I was chasing would suggest the opposite.

I'm not complaining, I enjoy the challenge that catching brings :)
 
"If you have two servers surly that means you have two tags haha"
You know as well as I do you don't need two tags to run from 2 servers :)

No your correct but it does not make much sense running two sockets over two servers unless your running redundancy or your running two peered pipes to a nominet presence in order to capitalize on the lowest possible latency but at 400ms that latency would be negligible compared to your wait time between queries ;-)

I wish i had thought of that, i would have caught Clippers.uk :(

Did you use your tricks you know to get Clippers?
 
Slow day. Main target caught by @Hay :( and a couple still loaded. It's like watching paint dry.

RoR1 was way more fun.
 
I see charlie.uk was renewed 18 hours into the day, and now belongs to our very own @susannah
