ok so. I "was" going to quit having .fun? but that little voice told me to keep on. I'm convinced after seeing all the Geos in .fun taken by Radix registry and having $12,500 monthly renewal.

I was "stuck" on not getting America. didn't quit there.

so I looked....."South" umm South America? lol

So grabbed SouthAmerica.fun

SouthAmerica.com Estibot $232K
Sold
southamerica.com 30,000 USD 2016-01-11 NamesCon

I like it!

South American Population in 2016 422.5 million.

Almost equal to American Population (Pre-Trump) (Most move to Canada "Supposedly" after he won. lol :xf.wink:

I saw this thread and thought I would try and reg some just to see if they were available- good job by everybody to pick most of them up. It kinda appears that the registry used a dictionary, then curated it abit and registered every one word possibility, that were sellable. Then you guys grabbed a bunch of good ones- which is great. There are some 3 letters abbreviations that make sense though I noticed. I am tempted to buy a couple just because, I tried a few proper names and some were already priced high, but noticed other names that were only $6.88, so there are some proper names still available.

Start is weak...
As of today - just under 4K domains have been registered...
I'm continually amazed that companies don't realize that reserving most words as (extremely) high premiums hurt the number of registrations.

.fun is huge waste and is a joke

All the nice .fun have renewal fees of $x,xxx a year. NO THANKS!
I searched for 15-20 domains in a row that I wanted to register and each one had $x,xxx renewal fee.

.fun could have been a huge opportunity in domain business but with renewal prices of $x,xxx
I will not invest in any .fun , I have no interest in .fun domains.

Domaining.Fun
Mine :) I'm open to offers.

For your spot poll, it probably depends on the word. Emoji was a premium. I picked up emojis. I think it still works, perhaps not as good as emoji, though.

Out of curiosity, can you let us know what it ends at? (Or PM me)

I was the only bidder for UAE.FUN! I got it at $10

Hope it will worth something oneday

.FUN looks to be in competition with .LOL - should take many years to fight this one out !

It's always the same concept:
Registration is 'cheap', renewal / transfer isn't.

Like 'baits for the fishes' - but at least we have 365 days to sell it before the 'critical day'! ;)

I like Crush.fun for reference to dating or the very popular Candy Crush game. Amor.fun is good too.

Still under 5K domains even...
Demand is minimal.

The registry reserved too many domains.
End users(if there are any) & domainers can't register the best or even the good domains.
I found just one good domain and registered it since it was the only one available & not reserved out of thousands...of domains I checked.
I can understand they are trying to make money but it is too much.

Wonder how much they've spent marketing .fun? I imagine far more than they've recouped in registration fees. This is the .fun graph so far - they haven't even sold 5000 domains yet and the graph is already plateauing - and we're only a couple of weeks into this launch:

I don't think .fun has much of a future other than a few niche sales.
