The UK ROR 'WHO GOT WHAT?' thread

[tifosi]

Better today. Finally nailed the script, even though it took 4 days!

Got 4 of 1st batch inc wip & tdi.

Interesting was the logs. Pretty much the top 500 domains gone in 1st minute. You can even guess how many 'chances' each registrar had. Top ones like cregisp & register-dot-com had most imo.

All together, average week. Would have been better. Got my niece & nephews name and a couple of names for future businesses.

It's been fun.. At leased catching will be more straight forward now.

 

[untagged]

Its been a tough catch this week for everyone, there has been a lot of worldwide interest and a lot of different TAGS popping up.

 

[webego]

Tshirt.uk
Wycombe.uk
Vacuum.uk

And another typo from doing lists at a stupid time...Deletion allowance already passed.

That last one sucks!

just wishes.uk

That's really good. Well done.

Definitely, I've seen a lot of tags I've never heard of before.

Started running 100ms early today - that's where you needed to be to even get a sniff at the top. Started the week with a 2 letter at about 35ms going up to 100ms for today as I guess more people started jumping in. Also you needed some quota you could waste to find the start.

I also got

visitbritain.uk
visitlondon.uk
visitnorfolk.uk
visitcornwall.uk

Due to discussing it yesterday on here actually..

Same pattern spotted on the testbed, jump today was bigger than I was expecting
Monday you needed to be 50ms ahead.

timer.uk is good too, I had that near the top of my list. thighs.uk has potential too.

Only one today:

tracking.uk

This was my guess, that people were starting early, rotating the best domains, wasting creates but hoping to get it just as it opened

Be interesting if people who did the best share exactly how they did it

The other domains were caught behalf of customers

tracking.uk

Nice, I had plans for that one too, lol!

 

[armistice]

I only used 1 create per domain. It was all about timing. the 6 epp connection limit had a bigger effect than the create limit.

How did you manage to get the right timing?

 

[ddaapp]

and what are your plans for domains?

sell or hold... this is the question

Yes we ran with 6 connections on 2 different servers. We connected to the EPP before the 14:00 kickoff and snoozed until 14:00 when we started sending the XML
