Note: I'm not very familiar with the drop process. I focus on reselling registrations.

I'm sure there are people in this forum who know the answer to your question. However, info like this doesn't make it out into the open very often. Many of the people who know their way around the drop process stay quiet to limit the competition.

However, this doesn't prevent you from doing your own digging. I have a few ideas:

-go to deleteddomains.com and do a search of .orgs. The statistics could provide some clues.

-Do whois's on .orgs that appear to be pending delete. If you can't stay glued to your computer, use a script. Use the information to get drop times from registrars

-I'm not sure who's running the .org database right now, but consider searching their site as well.

Good luck.

I know of only 3 people here, that have consistently been catching the .org's recently, and they aren't sharing this info shag. I have tried to get the lowdown as well, but no success so far. But who can blame them?

 

[dotNetKing]

Is anyone consistently beating the main services that are going for .orgs?

I imagine they aren't, at least for domains that are worth enough to have a pool bid on, unless they have their own registry connection, or at least something more powerful than eNom with its limit of one check every 5 seconds for .orgs.

Of the 56 names I have watched in the past 11 days, only two went to any thing other than a .org catching service, and that was 11 days ago, nothing in the last 10.

But maybe this isn't so much shaggy's question. Perhaps you just want to know _when_

If you really want to know the times of such things, nothing beats a bit of investigation ;-) (but this probably takes a bit of time and patience)

 

[dotNetKing]

p.s. I've just realised that it's possible that I am only selecting the domains I watch from a subset of the total, and that people could be beating the .org catching services on names the services don't realise are dropping. Just a thought.

Have you been to PIR's site to read about the drop info

http://www.pir.org/faqs/rgp

RGP was introduced on 6th June

Then .orgs didn't drop for 30 days.

Names with PENDINGDELETE in that period you add 35 days to the update. The odd domain does drop a day extra 36 days.

But when do we go back to adding 5 days ?

However names will be on-hold 30 days longer ?

Anyway just bid at Pool and NameScout will get it for you LOL

Why would we "go back" to adding 5 days? Do you understand what RGP is?

 

[Shaggy]

Thats just it.....I have done research and I'm still confused...LOL

 

[Whois-Search]

"In order for a name to be released for registration, it must complete the RGP period (30 days) as well as the RHP period (5 days). In total, a name can be released for re-registration 35 days after it has been deleted by a registrar, provided that there has been no Restore request received by the registry during the RGP period. To calculate the date a deleted name will be available for registration, add 35 days to the "last updated on" date reflected in the WHOIS."


If a name is in RGP, the Status field in the WHOIS will show the name as "Pending Delete - Restorable." Additionally, all Internet services associated with the name will remain disabled.

If a name is in RHP, the Status field in the WHOIS will show the name as "Pending Delete - Scheduled for Release."

But I haven't seen this in the whois only ...........

StatusENDING DELETE

 

[ToastyX]

Their WHOIS server will only show "PENDING DELETE." If you want to see the extended status, check here: http://www.pir.org/whois_search/

Either way, the "Last Updated On" date doesn't change.
