20090526 (random comic)

uptime

Thanks @beagle and @souen for freshening up our prem pseuodrando digits

Llooks like we just got to the 900th signup a few hours ago: https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/900/name

which was after the 84225 from @beagle - but before the 20090526 from @souen (so we'll end the current string for hashing with 84225, and begin the next one with 20090526)

and I shall commence to gather the spoons to do the needful hashery for the current selection shortly

uptime

secret was 3594351797809761419

crowsourced digits: 389584239359435179780976141913102625035080081351208925819110011011001110111101111111001106691456881291562925132789708783054615684225

https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/235/name

https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/23/name

of which I see the first @Baris (#600) looks to be bogus (that is to say, "unconfirmed" since December 2019) - let's not waste time waiting to hear back from that one.

so ... next up is @Piso91 (#235) - who has indeed made a few visits ... last active January 1st. Alrighty then! I'll send them a PM and hope for response within 72 hours

And after that will move on to a true OG (#23) ... omg it's @ITLabs

hmmmm ... I've got some catching up to do here.

Apologies for the delay - I got a bit drunk last night and ummmmm ... found myself challenged to muster the required attention to detail for this very important business.

(shit's getting real here yo!)

no response from @Piso91, so ... next up is OG @ITLabs (!) - I will take some time to compose a proper "hey what's up" PM and then come back to do the needful for SELECTION #999 and beyond ...!

we actually hit signup #999 yesterday: https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/999/name

and 1000 ... and ... and ...

as I type, it looks like we are up to https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/1024/name aka @StopForumSpam

but let's just take a moment to celebrate all the friends we've made along the way!

with an extra special shout out to @xraycreampie and @maskedmilfdp

(it's times like these I ask myself: "What Would Nekki Do?" ... Okay, just keep calm and carry on I guess!)

tl;dr: we've been moving just a wee bit faster than originally anticipated, but damn the spammers - full speed ahead!

@uptime said: we'll end the current string for hashing with 84225, and begin the next one with 20090526

the secret is: there was no secret! The only digits submitted before #999 were the 20090526 from @souen

hahahahahaha deal with it!

alrighty then - will send a PM and let's see what's up, doc!

some backup selections, if we go a few days (aka 72 hours) without hearing back:

https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/319/name

https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/410/name

https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/510/name

Also, I sent a PM to @ITLabs (backup for previous draw) a few hours ago - really hoping to hear back by the end of the week, let's see what happens.

As for the drawings for #1000 and beyond - we're going to open a new thread for those. Maybe we can take a little time to gather our wits and see if any adjustment to our ... process ... might be warranted.

(I'm thinking mainly about how to account for the recently increasing number of spam accounts - though that particular issue may have been resolved at this point.)

Questions, suggestions, and of course moar rando digits welcome

Seeing nice numbers here, some really prem digits, good stuff. Thanks errybuggy, keep 'em coming. These are going to be good grist for the mill when we start the new thread celebrating signups #1000, #2000, #3000 etc - real soon now!

Meanwhile ... I have not heard back from our previous selectees (I am disappoint!) so will now dig into the next tranche of backup winners for selections #900 and #999.

I'll start the 72-hour clock ticking again once I figure those out and send the notification PMs

uptime

as per the random selection shown in https://talk.lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/15398/#Comment_15398 our backup-backup-backup winner for the #900 selection is ... member #134, OG @ngelu (https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/134/name)

and for selection #999 shown in https://talk.lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/16020/#Comment_16020 next up we have #319, OG @ajiksip - (https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/319/name) - who has yet to visit since signing up in November, but is a "confirmed member" so ... I'll allow it! (As long as we get some sign of life from them in the next 3 days)

Sending PMs now

The board didn’t send an email notification when you sent me that winning PM

Also, I was using the board looking at other threads over the time I wasn’t showing as active because I wasn’t logged in

So moral of the story is: when you’re lurking, log in!

I just heard back from @ajiksip so I think the PM-to-email channel is working.

But yes, best to be in it to win it!

I'm wondering if we might make some adjustments along those lines for the new thread with the next round of selections - suggestions welcome!

ngelu

wow, thanks!

uptime

Nice. Winner winner!

I'm going to leave this thread open a bit to crowdsource some more rando digits and (if any) suggestion on how to proceed in the soon-to-be-opened new thread.

All things considered, I think it's been going pretty good (especially now that that little flurry of spam accounts seems to have been effectively dealt with.)

Thanks again to @cociu for bringing the good stuff to this party

Whoa, thank you very much @uptime and especially @cociu for the prize

alrighty - thanks so much for these very prem rando digits - I can dig it!

gonna inject my secret magic number into the mix after @uhu's 1.8026×10^12 (which I will represent as the attainable output of that calculation: 1802600000000 just to stay more-or-less consistent with my seat-of-the-pants procedure so far)

the hash of the secret is: d67a91e574006bc34fb2189fa716bf04af155ba2fc8b047860b81fad13c40195

will be looking for a few more crowdsourced digits to mix it up a bit more - let's put a timer on it to keep it "legit":

Friday, February 14, 2020 (UTC time)

since we've already got well over 1000 signups - we're probably getting pretty close to 1000 actual hooman members at some point real soon now

so that is going to be some legit cause for celebration I think (heads up @AnthonySmith!)

even if it is a total sausage party in here

Anyway - thanks everybody - and please keep those lucky numbers coming!

I'll be opening a new thread for the #1000 (and eventaully #2000 #3000 etc) selections sometime on Friday
