  • Well done @Derek, i'm sure you'll launch something unlike the last winner :D

  • Looking forward to the result of @Derek work.

    Stick to your goals and don't end up as a Zhuanyi.

  • Congrats @Derek :)

  • Well done @Derek nice to see someone winning something :)

  • @Derek should have a wining speech like those stars in Academy Awards.

  • Congratulations @Derek

    It's a shame the one I think should have won didn't. Will be interesting to see how this goes.

    Let me know what VPS company you start so I don't buy from them, seriously some of the things @Derek says/does makes me question this decision.

  • @Zen said:
    I start? :) You mean him?

    Yeah thats what I said, its kind of worded funny though. Oh well.

    Such as?

    The entry seems far more realistic than some of the others who thought they could do cloud-like platform using solusvm.

  • Congrats Derek!

    So, who's Derek? We voted numbers, not names, so how do I find out which number won?
    BTW, I'm so happy to have won a prize. :) I've never won anything in my life before, I feel special. Thanks. :)

    He has been hanging out in the BlueVM channel the past few days, I did a CTRL-F of everything he said over there. You can see references to the server he just won, as well as talking about #lowendtalk, and his signature "ohai" - at first I doubted it was actually him in #BlueVM but those subtle actions gave it away so I decided to post it.

    Edit: Fix my engrish ;)

  • So what? He got overexcited by all this and probably got drunk in the process. We've all done this in your younger days, haven't we?

    I am too old for that.

    I suppose so over the stretch over a few days.

    So basically normal BlueVM IRC behaviour?

    Geeze, everyone is downplaying this quite a bit. I have not seen people act like that in there...

    It's ALWAYS been that way in there. Since I came into play at least.

    Ok, so there's usually somebody who should have used google aswell.

    Oct 18 11:31:42 but I am not seeing starships

    10/10 candidate.

    @Zen - as long as he actually USES the kickstarter /beatingyearolddeadhorse

  • So why was the master server a dedi? It seems like a waste. Even solusvm recommends a VPS for master server. If you had to use a dedi you probably would have gone with something cheaper like an atom or c2d.

    Looking forward to seeing what Derek can do!

  • The entry seems far more realistic than some of the others who thought they could do cloud-like platform using solusvm.

    A poorly thought out single server cloud platform would have generated much more drama and page views for LET/LEB than Derek's more realistic plan . There was a provider who posted an offer here once who was offering "cloud services" on a single RAID 1 server at Ecatel...

    Congratulations @Derek

  • Any time schedule yet?

  • Lol Derek

    Should be interesting, this is the guy who sells op spots on IRC and is generally unstable and bans people whenever.

    Natural born businessman!

  • Congrats Derek! :)
    Good luck!

  • Well, I guess thats just how it goes, upset [Derek] and get banned ;)

    Looks like he is butthurt from the dump I did of what he said in a providers community chat. Kind of crazy that someone with that amount of volatility runs things over there.

    http://pastebin.com/tBgAZz90 - needless to say, I won't be on #lowendbox any longer

    Hit me up in #vpsboard if you need me :)

  • Derek's lack of ethics is exactly what this crapfest deserves.
