This is a rigged game.

Mhh, good point, but let's see.

Our API is not that easy to understand and they still need to pay for each comment. If it's a really naive bot, it's going to run into spam fees and/or comment way more than needed.

100 comments for 1 sat each guarantees 900 sats profit

lol you can 10x your money with that rule ... actually if freebies are allowed, this is much worse.

I guess I can raise the comment cost in ~meta to save ek from going poor.

Collusion!

Up to you, I just want to see how this goes

Surely I can't lose more than 100k sats on this, right? Right?

Or at least the next chart of @denlillaapan will look really funny

reply

...or maybe just the same... man, it'd be funny if you try this whole thing and it gets drowned in the overall decline of SN activity anyway

Is there such as thing as vibe commenting?

Maybe I should load up on yes shares

Maybe you should

Or maybe we should bet if this post will be overrun by bots. I still think it's not worth the time for 1k sats. And to be 1st, it needs to be a little more sophisticated.

Oh, I should add that freebie comments don't count.

reply

100 comments is a lot. Most people will get bored and quit. Especially if they don't have a chance at the grand prize.

It doesn’t take much with these kinds of chats

I am wasting time trying to make a meme. I don't have a very good strategy.

This is what I'm betting on too, lol

We are still pretty far behind but we can catch up pretty quick if a bunch of people are doing 100 comments each.

I guess I should sell my NO shares.

reply

Are you going to give up that easy?

reply

If I win I will put all the sats on YES on predyx. That will have the added benefit of tanking @Undisciplined's NO shares.

reply

If you push us all the way to 1.5M, though, you'll have made me more powerful than ever.

reply

I sold all my NO shares for both markets. Next week @ek will have a bot army. It's no longer a fair market.

reply

It was never a fair market

I missed the end of the Clippers vs Nuggets game for this.

I'm just rooting for the under dog. And low effort shit posting is kind of my thing so...

reply

This does throw a bit of a curveball into things. As a one off, it probably doesn't make much difference but if this becomes a weekly thing we can catch up pretty quick.

reply

Time to start betting on yes lol.

reply

Have faith

reply

I actually do, I think there would have to be posts like this weekly, and I think you'd win more than enough posting to offset your bet.

reply

yup... that's what I figured too.

He's gotta bring out some bigger guns -- i.e., spam saloon posts or something

@ek hedged. He put a big bet on yes. I told him if I win I will plow the proceeds into yes shares.

reply

That's hilarious.

reply

Heyz the underdog here is me, noo??

reply

I don't think you're going to lose that bet, but you could always bribe people to not post.

reply

me neither.

I was a little scared yesterday when I saw the comment count in the main post tick up (#948515)... but then I realized SN is so hopelessly far behind the 1.4m target that ek has to repeat this feat every single day for the rest of the year to catch up

reply

Holy shit. That's a lot!

Earth has proven to be quite the muse for musicians. Marvin Gaye’s 1971 hit, “Mercy, Mercy Me” was about ecological conservation. Joe Walsh made an entire album, Songs for a Dying Planet, about it. In 2015, Paul McCartney, Sean Paul, and Natasha Bedingfield, among others, recorded “Love Song to the Earth,” an all-star composition to raise awareness of climate change.

It is! Just like Julius Caesar’s only son, Caesarion, was the last Pharaoh of Egypt. Even though Cleopatra swears he is Caesar’s son, Caesar never officially acknowledged him!
