Very nice... I managed to grab christopher.cn although I'm not sure what I'll do with it. :D

I noticed there was a significant price increase. Any reason for that, Mike?

The Chinese are learning about free market economics, and hence are charging much more....

There are some good domains still left....

I bought a few today, but I still want a few more.

Mike can you lend me a few of those big Uhmerican dollars so I can shop for more CN domains?

(hurry though, because your dollar value is dropping fast...)

Well, they're being really picky about what they consider "adult" names :awinky: Some of us have BIRTH last names (emphasis for Vick) that can be construed as adult names and it's saying I can't have mylastname.cn :grrr:

I'm used to it - it's real fun when trying to get an AOL username or when your son decides he wants to fight with the Georgia DMV for a personalized tag :headwall: (also fun when he's been playing ball with it on his jersey for 12 years :biglaugh: :biglaugh: ).

I was just wondering if that's why I was getting the "not available", but no "whois" info like the other options gave me. Tell Sig "Thanks" and he needs to find someone with a simple last name like "Smith" to marry me so I can be cool and get a .cn name like you guys :(
