1. At the very least take down the option from the website.

2. There are no transactions on the blockchain. All withdrawals are stuck within MtGox.

3. People who withdrew money don't care about the fix, they care about getting their money back. Start paying now or say goodbye to your business. This is no game.

Oh, I thought the transactions were already broadcasted, just weren't being confirmed?

edit: not on a blockchain means not confirmed. A transaction that's been broadcast but not confirmed yet is probably still in the transaction pool of some miners - as soon as it becomes valid, it might get confirmed even without the original sender rebroadcasting.

Sorry, I meant they're not even being broadcasted. It's all inside gox.

They are all broadcasted, mtgox even had a data URL[1] of all withdrawal tx's which aren't confirmed after 2 hours. That's how people are tracking the total stuck. The problem is that the transactions don't confirm because they are malformed, most common errors being already spent outputs or tx too large.
