    You're one day too late for the day 7 offer/mystery, it's now day 8, different mystery. To make you feel better, I did a wheel spin (that doesn't count.) If you want to simulate what you would've got, I closed out of the first wheel accidentally but the second wheel is up and it would've gave you...

    Don't worry you still have a chance to have bad luck on day 8.

    I've closed out of the first wheel, wait a little bit longer if you want a proper spinny animation otherwise if you want it processed sooner just give me a number between 1 and 20 for the unfun but efficient version. Okay you did already give me a number. Doing it now since you already gave a number.

    Edit -- Actually nevermind the number thing won't work I already remember your number, I'm supposed to come up with a list and map it to numbers and it feels weird doing it now that I know your number. Oh cool this website just saves the first wheel when I open it back up, crisis averted.

    I blame cache, it was still showing to me as day 7, figured it was extended or something (but I guess I should've just used my brain lol).

    But based on that wheel spin might have been a blessing in disguise

    Okay I screwed everything up, @thelocalhost you got 512MB and then cursed idler, I forgot to record the second wheel spin, I have the first. @tridinebandim you got 384MB and then
    , but I did an overwrite of the file for the first wheel with the second. Sorry I tried to be slick and do them quickly one after another and my brain melted. Oh wait I think @thelocalhost I recorded
    but not the first or also did an overwrite.

    Your decision since I've offered this before when i mess up a recording, do you want to take my word for it and keep your mystery, or re-do?

    Edit -- Oh my god I can't do anything, instead of hyperlinking the image I did an image and did an overwrite on what I highlighted. Overwrites for everyone!

  • What’s with the cache issue though? I thought it was just me. Buy one candle might get another. Another layer of mystery added 🪄

  • edited January 2

    what did i get ? :lol: last decision 384 mb? maybe you misremember? may it be a cursed idler? :lol: anyway i can see at service page thanks

    ps: i think 1gb spin is mine got it...

    Leftover mysteries: If you have day 3 or day 7, a few are still being processed. That will be done either tonight or tomorrow. I'll wrap up the transfer and two left over from day 7 first and then spend some time trying to do the best for the leftovers on day 3. For now, let's at least get started on the final mystery.


    Final mystery:

    1. Coin flip per service first. Heads, two of the above, unique 1 through 7 odds per service (rolled twice.) Tails, nothing/no change.

    We're having some technical difficulties in finding a coin. The closest thing I've located is a CMOS battery. I figured I said coin and even though I meant a virtual one in this case it's better to do a physical one. We may give up and do a virtual one.

    (This is if anyone wanted to verify they were not altered.)

    ALDI is selling 4-pack coins for one dollar.
    If you need to flip N coins, send us Math.ceil(N/4) in account credits.
    We'll then buy the coins and flip them for you, uploading the pictures.

    Will an owner of a "WholeMale-VM" please let me know if this was meant to be a purchase for Day 7 or Day 8?

  • cybertechcybertech OGBenchmark King

    is there one with "PartFemale-VM"

    I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.

    A CMOS battery is a coin cell. Just sayin'. ;)

    Taking votes on what you guys want the first candle mystery to be... each number maps to one of them. I'm letting you guys pick the first day. Here's the list of potential mysteries, which I'll reveal the password to after the sale ends for transparency. This way I won't get blamed if we end up only having one day and you guys think I conspired to give you the worst mystery.

    Disclaimer: this post does not necessarily confirm or deny that the 768MB plan tomorrow is anything but a 768MB plan.

    Perhaps the owner meant it to be a purchase on Day 6.9?

    Does this mean all initial orders of Day 8 will receive the same specifications, with the only difference being whether or not the 'Coin flip' applies?

    Ok yes, I'm also slightly confused...

    is the worst 50% outcome... that you pay the full price and get absolutely nothing, not even the 1GB VPS?
    or you get the 1GB, but just no mystery and nothing more happens or gets added... but you still have the 1GB VPS?

    Day 8 order: my provisioning of VPs was within 10 minutes , now the mystery awaits.

    Maybe that is the mystery- is it Day 7 or Day 8?

    • assuming I got day 8.. since I placed order after Virmach wrote Day 7 was closed…

    Was it gmail back in the day who used to have the string 'notfemail' in the url ?
    Edit: It was mail.com (thanks, Claude)

    Mail.com used the string "notfemail" in their URLs after a user logged in, specifically as part of the session management.

    Here's why you remember that and where to find more information:

    Why "notfemail"?

    Historical Context: The "notfemail" string was a seemingly random piece used in the URL as a security measure related to session handling. It was likely part of their internal system and how they uniquely identified logged-in users for their web interface.

    Avoiding Caching Issues: Using a seemingly random, unique string like this can help prevent caching issues that might otherwise occur with simpler, more predictable URL patterns. Browsers and intermediate servers would treat URLs with "notfemail" differently, preventing unintentional sharing of session data.

    Obfuscation: While not a form of strong security, it could also be seen as a very minor attempt at obfuscation. The non-descriptive string might make it slightly harder for a casual observer to identify what part of the URL was significant.
