You know why? Because it is...

Didn't get past the first line.


I don't.

With the following numbers:



Your grid is:



Which gives 5 infinite oscillators:

Everyone assuming this is all a big joke. Check back at the end of May when I've ranked up above theymos to Global-Ultimate-Moderator/Owner/Administrator/Satoshi, and we will see who's laughing then.

It really is quite simple.

As per by theymos' instructions:


Given that your numbers are currently:



That gives you the following grid:



Which stabilises to the following pattern with two infinite oscillators on the right:



Therefore, you will rank up on Tuesday provided none of your numbers change.

Simple.

I'll trade you for your virtue.

I would be careful before farming politeness like that - the extra dots on your grid for the Game of Life might make it harder to create an infinite loop.

You forgot to carry the 2.

Allow me:


Translation to plain English:

Please abolish the merit system because it is hampering my shitpost bounty farming.

Your grid needs to be right-aligned with leading zeros, like theymos' example:


Trying to mislead fellow forum members like that is very rude, unvirtuous and unimaginative. I'm sure a moderator will adjust your stats accordingly.

That's a 50 DKP MINUS 1 politeness minus.

No thanks, intelligence is my dump stat.

Only if you also have plenty of coins.

I'm sure you would agree that 10 fMerits from theymos is all the confirmation that is required.

Just have a look at my Ultimate guide to ranking up as fast as possible.

We have all by now seen the theymos’ New new rank requirements.


And so I present:

o_e_l_e_o’s Ultimate guide to ranking up as fast as possible with minimum effort.

The stats we will be using to rank up are activity (same as before), imagination (number of images posted), virtue (see quote from theymos below), and coins (how many different coins you have invested in). This guide does not require any merit, smerit, fmerit, politeness OR karma, so you can continue to shitpost, spam and scam and still rank up!


Week 1 (Newbie to Junior):

Make a single post with a single picture and being kind to one person to earn exactly one activity, one imagination and one virtue. Invest in one coin only. Your grid will look like this:



Week 2 (Junior to Member):

Repeat the above post. Buy another coin. Your grid will look like this:



Week 3 (Member to Full):

Little more complex now. Make one more post, again displying one virtue, but this time with three pictures.



Week 4 (Full to Senior):

One more post this week. This one needs five pictures and four virtue (I suggest being diligently and humbly patient and kind to a fellow user).



Week 5 (Senior to Hero):

Make three posts with a combined total of one picture.



Week 6 (Hero to Legendary):

One more post with one picture.



Week 7 (Legendary to a new rank theymos will have to create just for you):

One post with nothing.




By this point you will be less than 2 months on Bitcointalk, have made 9 posts in total, and be a global moderator or better. You are welcome!

I am a known and proven campaigner against witchcraft, and curer of curses and other spells. How can it be that my virtue is only 9? By my quick calculations, it should be at least over 9000. Please remedy with much haste.

Quick, someone DDOS the fortnite servers.

Given the number of shitcoins and trash ICOs that keep popping up, I would suggest you ask yourself one question first:

Considering my concept/idea/project, why do I need blockchain technology? What will blockchain technology allow me to achieve, that I would not be able to achieve without it?

If your answer to that question is simply to sell a coin, run an ICO, and raise funds, then, like so many others, you fall in to the category of "shitcoin".

More specifically, there are already a number of coins and projects applying blockchain technology to advertising. BitClave, as an example, aims to pay its users for allowing companies to access their data and advertise to them.* There are many more examples you can find with a simple internet search.

*This is not an endorsement of BitClave.

All the smart people freeze their sMerits on day of receipt to keep them fresher for longer.
