Cameron,
Actually if you were a registrar, you would have received the email, but
since you are not a domain registrar you didn't receive it! So I will
forward it along. Registrars received the message below from Verisign
stating nothing about suspending the drops.
Maybe you thought they suspended the drops because snapnames didn't get
all of the domains they were supposed to for there customers. Maybe
some of your competition grabbed all of the domains before your
consortium of 8 trillion registrars had a chance to register their first
domain. :) Oh yeah, you don't have any competition do you.
