I expect it was not good for him to keep that all inside. Hopefully it is better that he lets it out once in a while.
I for one enjoyed the show. Of course you can guess what that says about me. Tomorrow it will be time to put the genie back in the bottle.

The chess-captcha drama on OGF is fun, epic butthurt people
Michael J. Jacksons complaining was inevitable, but was surprised some regulars also got mald as well.
Just git gud, it's that easy
Get good at what? scripting? automated browser plugins? botting?
Personally I liked the chess captcha, as it was good to somewhat hinder all the bots.
Meanwhile, one can not ignore the beautiful popcorn drama in which the megathread developed.
Drama?
Yes. It's that kind of drama turned from hype, because Black Friday will end in a few hours, and the pressure is on the providers for having limited offers which got grabbed by bots. Meanwhile some customers get a good spanking for commenting their dislikes.

Yeah, I guess it would always happen that way. It’s gone too commercial + the newer LET’ers are scum.
Yeah, a few people got really butthurt because they can't see the funny side of life. Apparently having fun on BF is an affront to everything OGF stands for. One MJJ even threatened to leave OGF forever.

I only pop out of the woodwork a few times a year here, LET, and HT. And even I’ve noticed quite a change in the LET folks. Doesn’t feel welcoming. HT seems to be fairly quiet these days and more folk here. Plus I see I missed some Virmach drama, saw mention the VM folk don’t really do LET now.
Problem is not the snowflake generation complaining, but the abusers who use scripts and bots. Meanwhile it's all for profits, and the organisers don't get anything, working voluntarily for the profits of others. I am willing to bet the main admin who gets all the money does not even watch the megathread or get involved in it. He's the manager, letting others get their hands dirty, while he takes the cash.
I highly appreciate @FAT32 for doing this. But at the same time is just wrong how some managers get to make profits from the passion of volunteers.
Just saw that the reaction about the chess is completely diff here than OGF @Advin seriosuly, i cannot stop from telling you how awesome the chess is
I have not gotten so much fun on a single webpage for so long. Pure genius, and thank you!

This is absolutely true. I also love chess. Problem is: others don't know or don't like chess, so they feel marginalised or excluded by such a captcha.

I dunno chess really, but still fun, and i still play for really long time with many retries just now xd
The idea itself is so much fun already, priceless idea
Damn, it's idea like this that sparks the advancement of mankind
This applies to Monthly only, 1 per Customer, and may not be used with other promotions.
Quantity: 4
Sorry to those that missed out, this is in part due to someone registering 2 accounts to bypass the 1 per account and then also entering fake details, so the promo codes got wasted, I am now too tired to remedy this after a long shift, so I am afraid they are just gone.
People never consider the human element when only thinking about themselves.

Congrats those that got that! I was saldy distracted with Amazon and missed it. Would have been perfect for a private Valheim server (well apart from "and we may reboot VM's with or without notice"). 16GB for $7.99 is still tempting. What are the cores? and would a private game server be okay? (I don't see a AUP)

Below image, my friends, is what they call as Simple Horny Motion
Here’s a poem that I wrote in honour of this great scientific demonstration…
While OGF has drama and commotion,
They haven’t the slightest notion…
With splendid candour and devotion,
This thread has images to evoke emotion
Some may call it desire, others temptation.
For many, they will need ablution.
To the beaches, requires mini vacation…
But the images do offer some ministration.
The offers come with promise and provocation,
The wait causes anxiety and consternation.
Daytime for some, passes with expectation.
Night for others, with hope or frustration.
And on it goes.

@Advin I wonder whether I can repleace cpu to AMD via ticket if random result is not?
Not sure how cheap are you looking for but have you seen IH offer?
