.us CONTEST: 6-Figure .US Sale.

[-db-]

This contest poll is regarding the rumored 6-figure .US sale recently discussed.

- The voting in the poll will be "public" (your user name will be shown next to your pick) so there is no doubt who voted for what.

- The vB poll feature only allows 12 choices, so we've narrowed the list to the 12 names that seemed the most popular among the crowd.

- When (and if) the domain name is made public, and if it's included in the poll, the prize pot will be split among the people who voted for that particular name. Easy enough, yes?

Good luck everyone, and GO .US!

Prize is currently: 2,090 NP$

THIS THREAD IS POWERED BY .US DOMAINS.

[Matt]

Vote.us for me

 

[Kenny]

You heard it here first, Jobs.us :imho:

Thankies.
-Jeff

I also believe Jobs.us since this would have worldwide search appeal (Jobs in the US) and not be hindered by the nature of its ccTLD.
....ahem, but it seems I was the first to vote for it in the poll Jeff.... lol

Great thread db, I look forward to the opinions of others and explainations why they picked what they did.

 

[-db-]

I don't see loan.us. I would choose that one, though they are all good candidates. Jobs.us second choice.

Tee, the list was trimmed from 14 to 12 because the vB poll only allows for 12.

I can edit the poll choices, and swap one name for another, if everyone feels there is a better choice.

 

[matt_bodis]

I'll take a guess here, Blog.us and the buyer: Yahoo Inc.

 

[piet]

i voted for jobs.us

 

[Jo]

Boy that was hard...so many choices...and the name might not even be there? Well I wanted to go with love but in the end I voted for VOTE.us. :sold:





Also just saw a few names on sale here on the front page...not .us though...but maybe the name is guns.us or spam.us!

 

[mis_chiff]

Geesh, trying to pick only one.
But I picked PORN.us, cause no matter how
you slice it, it is billion dollar industry and I think out of
that list (although they are all great) PORN.us would be the first
to go for big bucks.

Oh by the way -DB- what was your choice?


PS:...I saw that...lol

 

[-db-]

Early results are interesting, with Jobs.us starting out strong.

If there is a name you want to vote for, that is not listed in the poll, just post it. I will track those as write-in candidates.

Loan.us - Has 1 vote from Tee.

I'm not voting, and not participating. I worry that I might cause a distraction.

I agree.....but it would be a good distraction

PS: if we wish to donate, do we send it to you?

 

[cancerian]

It is blue.us

 

[Jeff]

Errr, I believe Tee did get a vote in for "Jobs.us" (in the poll), IMHO. :blink:

Loan.us - Has 1 vote from Tee.

PS. Donors of NP$'s (thank you, thank you )may send them to me ... and I will then distribute as DB directs to the winner(s) of the poll, if that would make things easier!

[airwav]

What I am always trying to get my family to do: JOIN.us

 

[PolurNET]

I think I was peer-pressured to pick jobs.us, but I secretly hope for blog.us

[jeter4982]

I don't know why, but when considering the choices I had a hunch that it is News.us, though it would be nice if it were Blog.us, as I think that would really drive up the prices within the .us market. BTW, NP $ on the way Jeff! Great contest idea -db-!

[Lasher]

Just added 500 NP$ to the prize pot - sent to Jeff.

I believe (could be wrong) I was the first to suggest "loan.us" in the original thread, would like to see that added as an option if possible. Thanks.
