I collect and deal in ancient Roman coin. In case you're looking for affordable ancient coins or need any help with the coins you already have send me a message.
Does this mean the esteemed collector, respected numismatist, Hutt River 'referee', and big-time contributor to Numista Muenzenhamster isn't going to let me and my guess participate? I am shocked!

You have no respect for other people and expect them to respect you?! I am shocked!
You better save your sarcasm for your family and stop bothering complete strangers over the internet. Get more class.

My dear scceda, respect is earned; courtesy is expected. And if courtesy were coins, our friend Munzenhamster would be a pauper; you wouldn't be much better off either.
Casstaylor sorry i forgot you. Are staying with 6666666 or want to change it?
I will update the list later. On the french side there is a very sophisticated approach for the quiz.

in a few days the competition will be closed and will begin starting to count. Last chance to modify your estimates. Please give me some time for that task

in a few days? according to your original post tomorrow is the deadline.

Perhaps someone's too busy contributing to the catalogue as the referee of Hutt River?

Too much butthurt, young gentleman?
A butthurt diagnosis coming from an account currently with a Confederate flag profile pic?
Oh, the irony.
Maybe he really was busy contributing to the catalogue as referee of Hutt River.
(Oh no wait that's me now, so I ask once more, would the Hamster kindly remove his misleading signature?)
Congratulations on your new found popularity my friend and of course on reaching troll level 100. I stand in awe at your troll mastery, one day I hope to reach the bar you have so nobly set.
Non illegitimis carborundum est. Excellent advice for all coins.
Make Numismatics Great Again!

I’ll count that as one vote!
see my above post
Taking a break from swapping for a while, but still interested in pre 1799 Spanish coins, I will make time for that!
Quote: "scceda"I vote against banning him. He's trolling some immature youngsters on this forum, but that is OK with me.
He is lying about being a referee, and refuses to remove it from his profile, and then made a fake contest and lied to all of the members who voted. Innocent?

Quote: "Muenzenhamster"@casstaylor could please keep your clumsy mating dance attempts out of this thread and let the others just enjoy the competition?
Ouch, what a comeback. I am so devastated.
I think your delay in announcing a winner is more obstructive to anyone who was enjoying your competition. It's been what, 2 weeks now?
By the way, I've asked you nicely three times to remove your misleading signature, something other referees and moderators have agreed with me upon.
Maybe let him do that before claiming the 'maturity' high ground, scceda?
btw. i dont care what you agree on in your private circle jerks.
I dont comment anymore on this troll. When the results are here i will post them. I can only say 1 user will get an extra price for his sophisticated attempts.

Yes, very mature.
My game, my rules - but you're not even following your rule on the reveal date!
Anyway, if you truly feel thatI'm the immature troll here after all this time, then you'll do the one thing that would cease my cause for hostility; removing your incorrect signature.
Go ahead and prove how mature you are. I'll be waiting.
I recently looked at this post, to see when the date was to reveal the amount. Not in my wildest dreams did I expect negative comments when I started reading. I mean, the guys giving away free coins. Free is Free. Fun is Fun..How could you possibly F#%K that up?
Well, it really doesn't take much. As much as I like to think that all Numista members are mature and reasonable, that's not the case. There people who demand to be seen or heard, no matter the case.
When I watch my 4 yo granddaughter, and Im not giving her enough attention, she will do something to get it.Usually naughty. Seems to be whats happening here, not just this post but many others.
I would like to be on the Forum more, I do have a lot to say, but I don't want to deal with the criticism, anger and all around animosity. No matter what the subject is, somebody has to make it dirty.
Maybe we should have a Numista forum for "Angry Members Only.". Then you could spare me from the negativity and embarrassment of having to read it.
I recently welcomed a new member to Numista. I apologize to Zavier, but I felt it necessary to warn him/her about some people that comment on the Forum. Ignore, don't take personal, and most of all, don't get sucked into it. It truly is embarrassing ,and leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
Just saying....

Good spirit, just ignore trolls and haters.
One thing about this discussion though: you have to consider the OP, he's a troll who likes to stir stuff up for fun and there's absolutely no chance he's going to give something (I'd tell you to check his posting records if it wasn't a complete waste of time). What you witnessed here is what happens when such a troll plays with a member who due to an inflated sense of her own importance wants to police the forum and who for some reason thinks anyone cares about who is referee for Hutt river.
I wish there was an ignore box like in a proper forum
Johnspa, it would Certainly be Silly to complain about free coin giveaways, if you follow me on numista you won’t find me complaining about too much, so if I am complaining there is a good reason. First of all, he’s not giving anyone anything. hamster has been a bane to numista. This is the kind of drama he likes and he’s turning us against each other.
If you follow his antics you will find many quality forum discussions suddenly devolve into troll crap, also that his IP address has been used multiple times to create accounts that have scammed and cheated people. I don’t think anyone is complaining about any Real coin giveaways..... but this guy......

1) You're right, it didn't take much for him to **** that up. And yet he managed to. It's been over two weeks since the end date, and no winner has even been announced.
2) Maybe we should, but I remind you nothing I've posted is in a ranting or trolling tone; in contrast...
3) You seem not to appreciate the brevity of the situation; as redsmithstudios has said, Hamster has a history of exactly this kind of publicity stunt/trolling/stupidity. If you newcomers to this mess want evidence, here's Hamster's oh-so-mature discourse on another thread with me:
Bear in mind this is in response to a perfectly civil request:

First, I appreciate you recognizing the Hamster's intentions, and looking back, I probably did take the bait and fed the troll more than I should've.
But I protest your diagnosis; If I wanted to be Forum police, I'd have applied to be Forum moderator. I don't police the forums out of big-headedness or desire to feed a troll; but pardon me if I stand up to people I see who have consistently been a bane to the Numista community without any worthwhile contribution to the catalog, whose antics have brought negative amounts of good to the table.
I don't believe what I've done here is objectively wrong; and some have even thanked me for doing it.
As for why anyone cares who the ref for Hutt River is, there's the fact that Hamster's signature is objectively false; and I wish we had a rule against impersonating staff, like on most forums. It's a misleading falsehood and as the real referee of Hutt River, and a member with 3314 more, or 93 times more edits to the catalogue than him at that, I can say that at least one person cares about that.

My remark wasn't referring to this discussion only; you've been increasingly aggressive towards posters and derailing threads because their topics didn't interest you or their titles' wording didn't suit you.
As for this thread's OP, harping on at him about Hutt river refereeship (which, come on...) after every one of his interventions doesn't help with anything. The proper thing to do would be to report posts that deserve to be reported and contact mods to ask for a ban if it's deserved or to see if they consider that something needs to be done about his signature—and if they don't, just deal with it.
