make fun of plagiarisers that act dumb

[mocacinno]

No worries about dev time, i'm currently working on a very small-scale semi-automated exchange script commissioned by a thirth party, so i'm happy to get a break from time to time

At the moment, all bingocards are final, there is no way to reshuffle the excuses. IIRC, i did this to level the playingfield (if you could change/reshuffle the options, it would be to easy to win the bingo ).

But, since this excuse wasn't in the bingopool when you created a bingocard, i have cheated and sneaked this excuse in just for once... It took like 30 seconds of my time to run a single update-query, so it wasn't a problem at all. It's not like the bingo is provably-fair anyways

btw, just for the record, i can't take credit for being a ln dev. I'm a fan, i run bleeding edge versions of ln daemons i recompile at least once a week and i try to submit all bugs i find, but i'm not nearly smart enough to be a ln dev

I did include that excuse on the original edition, which I first posted here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5071287.msg48016152#msg48016152

We even got to mark off that excuse on just the second usage of the bingo card, 4 days later: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5073698.msg48129339#msg48129339

#36 redoubles #18.  At the current rate of original authorship of new excuses, there will be at least a score more before the morrow.

Or perhaps Ratimov and his supporters need their own bingo card.
