Someone forgot ZiL.mobi

aliengg · 12-13-2006, 09:08 AM

Just paid 30 bucks to Bob Parsons to get it last night.

It was the ONLY one of the 18576 3 char .mobi left (17576 LLL and 1000 NNN), and it's pronouceable.

3.24 million google results.
893 OVT for "zil" in Nov.

'18577 3 char'?? ZiL would be a 3 Letter (LLL), and there are 17576 of those combos. ..just to clarify.

either way, a nice find this late in.

aliengg · 12-13-2006, 10:23 AM

Plus the 1000 3 numbers too.

18576 to be accurate.

ATL.tv · 12-13-2006, 10:35 AM

don't forget hyphens when talking about "characters"

aliengg · 12-13-2006, 10:38 AM

arha... I was gonna make another template for the hyphens too.

but 'to be accurate', '3 char' would include hyphens, underscores, and all the 3 'N and L' combos. A number that would be more than I'd feel worth calculating.

Bodhi · 12-13-2006, 11:54 AM

Wow, that is funny, good job!!!

I dont think any symbol other than hyphen is valid for TLDs.

hawkeye · 12-13-2006, 12:24 PM

caught up in email! subtract the underscore's.

ATL.tv · 12-13-2006, 12:30 PM

i was curious myself about hyphens, seems you can't lead or trail with a hyphen... meaning:

-LL invalid
LL- invalid
L-L (obviously) valid

Congratulations on finding the needle in the haystack.

It's surprising that a 3-Letter name was overlooked. I thought it had been checked, double checked, and triple checked.

Jo · 12-13-2006, 03:31 PM

Excellent find!

sibarani · 12-13-2006, 04:30 PM

Congrats ...

E-Thunder · 12-13-2006, 04:31 PM

good job!

This was seriously available to register? I feel so stupid.
Well, you should get a nice return on this one.

off to check for more lll.mobi's (just in case

)

I'll give a $100 cash reward to anybody that finds another one.

And they keep their find, of course.

Just to make it interesting.

aliengg · 12-13-2006, 07:10 PM

hehe, save some time man, I have checked every single one of them :-)

Yes, I feel very confident in my bet.

Then again aliengg, that's what everybody said before you found that one.

aliengg · 12-13-2006, 07:14 PM

Hey, I really forgot to take the L + N combos into account, but I think they are worthless just like the .net and .org versions. Even the .com versions don't go well with this format. So I excluded this from my template.

They just didn't make the template like I did.

ChineseDomain · 12-13-2006, 07:27 PM

Interesting, someone have already listed zil.mobi in TurkishDomains.com.

**IAmAllanShore** · 12-13-2006, 11:04 PM

I scanned all of the 3 letter .mobi's a week ago and none showed as available, and I scanned again now (Bet your sweet @$$ I triple checked the b!tch...)...
Must have been dropped for some reason? Dropped within the 4 day window at Moniker? ICANN antics? Beats me.
Good find and good luck for you,
-Allan
