i think any backorder service can try for it no matter which registrar the domain with.

It does not matter where a domain is registered. When they expire, they all drop the same.

Yea it doesnt matter.

It doesn't matter where it was previously registered. NW is generally better than SN...

Couldn't Dotster prefer to let the domain go like one day earlier to Namewinner if its backordered within that system, since they're partners?

Dotster does not have the power to decide when a domain is to drop. All drops are handled by the registry.

yeah, but I meant; just doing some sort of transfer, to the new backorder registrant, instead of letting it drop. or something..

Dotster has no power to do any kind of illegal transfer, neither does namewinner. They are simply Registrar & Drop Catching Service.

okay, I see. didnt mean that they did, only what they might be able to do. but apparently that wasnt possible either. thanks for clarifying

Namewinner is cool.
