Just for the record, I'm still long despite the massive drops. 920p average, but I'm not particularly worried about it anymore. I wrote this investment off 3 years ago, so now I'm just along for the ride. And what a ride it's been. And is still likely to be. After all, we've been way lower than this before (16p old money). I didn't sell then, and won't be selling now. I'm waiting for the Miracle on 34th Street moment when all comes good, courtesy of Tosca and co. If it does, hurrah. If it doesn't, well, it doesn't. But I'll be damned if I'll stop commenting, just because investors like curlykev can't handle negative comments, even though those comments have been validated by subsequent the SP performance. If you can't handle the heat, well I guess it's time to get out of the kitchen. I guess Shroder has reached that point.. His decision, good luck to him. But please lets stop hearing all this guff from other posters about forever being long and strong. Let's be real. This share is a massive risk. If may come good in the end, it may go bad. Who know's really? I certainly don't. I'm not sure the company do. Or Tosca and co. But I'll still call it as I see it, not as I would like it to be. I'm just sick of people pretending all would be well, if one or two posters stopped being critical of the company. At then end of the day, the poster's who have been critical have been proved right. Those who have buried their heads in the sand, or have perpetually abused critical posters, have been proved wrong. That could well change as the future unfolds. I truly hope that in time I can get my money back. Maybe I will, more likely (on balance) I won't. I don't bleedin' know. But nothing posted on this board or any other is going to make any difference. This company and share is in the hands of hedge funds, so it's really all down to them IMO. I'd personally like to thank stt1 for drawing attention to the potential problems with the company and in the ad-tech sector as a whole. They've proven to be more salient than any of the supposedly 'positive' posts, and have accurately reflected the ongoing concerns of the market in this share. Quick curlykev, get your keyboard out! Plenty for you to attack me with there!

Do you ever actually make a comment about the share, rather than just about the other people who do? I've never actually seen an opinion from you about anything else, certainly not anytime in the last 4 months. So tell us gurlykev,, where's this all going? Or don't you have an opinion about that? Or ANYTHING else?

No Shroder, I read 'em all: positive posts, negative posts, and the much more numerous personally abusive posts (which makes up the majority of the posts posted, especially those directed at stt1). And I take them all with a big pinch of salt, because what's posted on here makes zero difference to the SP. That's in the hands of the company and the hedge funds who now run it IMO. The R1 submarine is currently dive, dive, dive (c. 5% down at the moment). And stt1 hasn't even posted yet today. Go figure.

Shroder - I don't filter anybody. Even pump and dumpers like you.

Meanwhile the SP continues to crash. Probably because I confirmed the new site wouldn't load for me either.

It didn't load in Google for me, but did in IE Edge. Deleting internet history made no difference for me using Google Chrome.

Maybe we should put this on the homepage: "Dear potential customers, please change to Internet Explorer Edge and clear your internet history before entering this site." Problem sorted.

"Only viewable using Internet Explorer (Edge)" - What about the potential customers who don't use IE (Edge)? ie: given that it's a load of crap?

Sadly for the bridegroom, the R1 nightie is usually down.

PI's like this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hz64hWng2vM

"I am still reasonably young and I have the time to wait. I know some PI's don't have as much time" Blimey, BDC, you make it sound as if half the punters on here are on life-support!

Insiders like the BOD haven't bought any shares for years anyway. They've just been given them for achieving nothing.

Yeah, yeah, it was probably my reference to the Citigroup note that collapsed the sp this afternoon.

My single comment today directed Biffa to a link that confirmed the date of the Citigroup note. That's some serious de-ramping I guess? You're truly crackers mate.

Don't have access to the note itself Biffa, but can confirm that it was issued on 18th October, as reported on iii website: http://www.iii.co.uk/stockmarketwire/452910/broker-forecast-citigroup-issues-broker-note-rhythmone-plc

PS: please ignore that last line BMac, (or indeed the entire comment if you wish:))

The last RNS stated the following: "This INCLUDES NET CASH USED of c.$20M relating to the RadiumOne acquisition CASH CONSIDERATION" (my dual emphases) You quoted this from an earlier RNS relating to the original purchase: "The consideration includes an upfront payment of $5.5M in cash, with UP TO a further $16.5M being deferred and payable in shares at a future date." (my emphasis) Surely the latest RNS is saying that we've already paid $20M in cash. There's no mention of an outstanding share consideration still being due, so perhaps the $20M was paid because of the collapse in share price (from the originally mentioned 53p in old money) and in leui of shares. Or perhaps there may still be a share issue for the remaining $2M shortfall from the original price. The UP TO bit suggest not. Either way, it looks to me as if $20M has been paid in cash. That's why I joked last week about being concerned about our cash being nicked. Surely that is saying that

Shorters at work.

The Edelman short(s) pushed the sp down to c.80p when it closed. The BOD have managed to push it down to less than 20p since then. No one else to blame for that. The poor performance now has nothing to do with Edelman and everything to do with inept management. I'd be happy with 80p now, as would most others nowadays The reality is that Edelman was right about blinkx being on the fiddle back in 2013. The market clearly believed him and nothing that's happened since then has convinced the market that blinkx is anything other than a cash shell - hence the sp close to cash pile level. The only way this share will ever recover is with real profit. Not mealy mouthed assurances from BM about adjusted this or that. Nobody believes a word he says and why would you? The guy's a joke. A new CEO would be far better news than meaningless name changes. Do they really think that any serious players in the advertising industry won't know that RythmOne are really dodgy old blinkx? Until they get a better CEO this company is going nowhere.

Yep, the legalisation debate has completely stalled here Kingskin (as I predicted it would), so that chunky kit kat's as good as mine to my mind. Only 4 years and one month to go before the bet's finished. Meanwhile, a little bit of positive news about legalisation for you is that Ladbroke's are now offering odds on cannabis legalisation in the UK for the very first time: 3 to 1 on cannabis being legalised by 2026. Not by 2020 as you called, but positive for the longer term nevertheless: http://volteface.me/legalisation-odds-announced/ As for FPB's comment, if we hold back on legalisation here for 10-20 years I'll be likely long dead, so I beg to differ.
