I can see a number of these getting picked up - there a few others I'm surprised they accepted the high reserve and can't see selling because of it. What do you think?

Eugene at Sibername got mine sorted overnight as well rlm Thanks Eugene!

Oddly DR.. Siber usually posts all of the results from the weeks TBR however only 73 that they caught showing at this time.
Could be the list is still in flux as they and others try and sort it out and perhaps the complete list will become available once it is all sorted.

 

[DomainRecap]

Or maybe there is no list at all going forward? You never know with CIRA.

And there won't be one this week - it's provided as a last-second snapshot when the TBR run is over, and Registars need to grab it then or forever hold their peace.

So that means a) CIRA screwed up yet again or b) CIRA is no longer offering this snapshot under the new system.

All this discussion about CIRA, domains taken back, etc sure doesn't me to invest in ca's..thinking any lurkers might feel the.same.

 

[DomainRecap]

What bothers me most about the CIRA is their almost-total lack of software development, testing and implementation skills.

 

[jaydub]

I’m still okay investing bri... Was this a big cluster....oh yeah... but I think it will get sorted and move on and hopefully cira learns from it.

Most of the names, town.ca...city.ca that got taken back I believe the people that reg’d them knew wasn’t going to stick but wth, reg them and see.

It might seem I am taking it lightly....I’m not. It is a mess that could have been avoided I’m pretty sure, but hopefully CIRA learns from it moving forward.

I think what bothers me is that they post nothing on their website letting anyone know what is happening... we deserve to know and they didn’t offer anything.

Well an end used, really has no clue all of this is going on, but you make a good point. I think they are going go to have to take the localized restrictions off soon enough, to get some organic growth. There are just so many two keyword terms sitting unregistered.

 

[dtagr]

What is the registrar? Are they Sibername? or someone else too?

They are at MYID. I had 11 auctions at Sibername when I went to bed. Now they are gone.

Looks like MYID ran the table again.

...and communication.

Usually auctions end Thursday, I guess because a week was missed, an extra day was added? I don’t quite understand the logic, maybe increased inventory?

Since Sibername hit 73 on the TBR scale, it makes you wonder how many were actually taken this week.

I'd guess over 300 no problem, and over the past few months Sibername has consistently represented ~21% of the entire TBR, so extrapolated this week that would result in a TBR total of...

347

Then again, the higher the TBR run total, the higher the percentage that Sibername represents (2 weeks ago it was 24%) so the number may even be larger.

The results should actually be released by CIRA and posred on the website the following day.

50 or 60 emails to [email protected] might move that along.

Really? That's the new format going forward?

Anyone pick up anything good this week in the leftover pile?

I grabbed a few, but it's tough sledding using the WHOIS rather than the TBR list.

But to be honest, it was picked pretty clean and even most of the ultra-low-end LLLs were snagged. Seemed to be a bit of a feeding frenzy this week.

i ignored the release altogether and instead concentrated on regging place names from around the country.the CIRA snaffu was still in place last night and i managed to reg about 6 great names.and they they were locked right away,darn it.they don't just restrict city,town and the like,but also actual place names themselves.that being said,one did squeak through and it was a pretty good one too.CIRA even sent me an email congratulating me on my reg!with the others,some are pending create and some are pending delete.it is such a snaffu that i had one regd at gd and ns at the same time!

 

[jaydub]

Yikes!
