For Sale NetSol name drop timing - current situation

Hi all

Does anyone know if the 6 day drop rule still applies to NetSol? eg if the "Not Found" date is May 13, then the drop will take place on May 19?

Would also appreciate your pointers on the following:

(1) Are the 6 days simply calendar days, or business days?

(2) Do drops happen on Sat & Sun?

(3) Does the drop start at 2pm EST?

Thanks in advance.

I monitored a domain that was in the 6 day drop period. Like a clockwork, NetSol dropped 4 hours before the end of the 6th day.

 

Hi timechange

Many Thanks for sharing your insight.

Can you possibly clarify at what time (EST) it actually happened?

4 hours before the end of the 6th day

Also, in my above example, would it be 19th or 20th when the drop happens? There seems to be some confuson as to how to count the 6 days.

Thanks again.

Here is the easy way to work it:

Using a calendar, begin by including the first published day, and count exactly 6 more days. The resultant day is the day it will drop. Real simple. Just use a calendar and count. Drops occur weekends, holidays, etc. The last published drop begin time was 2:00 pm EST on this '6th' day, but that still not may be completely valid all the time. Some names do drop one day early in the 2:00 EST timeframe. This has happened for many years, and occurs on approximately 15% of all dropped names. I know I have been doing this for years, and just last week I picked up a name that violated all the 'rules' through a snapback I had on a name. It was great to best the crooked enom!

So in the example...would it be the 19th or the 20th 2:00EST ?

the 'updated date' is May 13, the drop will occur on the 19th. What is so difficult here???

See,you told it in one sentence.
The question was how to count( like is the 13th the one that counts"1" or is "1" the 14th).But you cleared that up.
Thanx.
