I entered, and will only enter one time.  Please try to make sure that people don't use all 500 of their phony email addresses to enter, or at least people who read this and enter, please don't cheat.  Thanks

Looks like there are 10k registered users.  9900 users are obviously bots.  Boelens, you really should have some sort of spam protection :/

There are quite a few people who know about the domesticpineapple faucet and use it on a regular basis (mainly the newbies), so I'm not surprised that there may be quite a lot of legit users. As to botting, I assume if someone entered the same email twice it should be caught, and if someone bots with like 1K emails they have to check each and everyone of them which is a giant pain in the ass.

Many are legit, but there are/were about 8000 fake ones, I'm adding captcha as soon as I have time. I will carefully remove all the fake entries (making sure not to remove a real one), no worries, all duplicate entries will be disqualified. I know who made the 8000 entries and who he is, etc. The person apparantly wanted to make it harder for me to hold this contest. Eitherhow, attempts to enter multiple times will be noticed and be ridded of.
EDIT: I also tried advertising the site on Reddit, but people there simply downvoted me to oblivion and called people who entered idiots, because it was "an obvious spam catcher for e-mails", even though I have decentt rust and Dooglus is escrowing the coins.

Well, some people just think like that :/  Anyways I entered a random spam email and another of my emails to see how much people were left, be sure to remove that lol.
Good job, keep it up.  I can't believe 2000 people actually entered as for we only see a few posts on this page. o.O

I think there is any problem or any thing going wrong because OP is not updating this thread for many days

This type of thing is ridiculous.  BTC is just a totally safe haven for cheats and fraudsters.  It's sad, wish BTC was more reputable.

Can anyone confirm they won, or can dooglas drop by to confirm?
