Let's Keep a Record what Theymos did in April Fools' Day 2019

[akamit]

Well, let's keep a record for April Fools' Day 2019 for the newcomers or the next generation. Let's show them how we (the community) celebrated this day.

Maybe after 10 years we will visit this thread and recall April Fools' Day 2019 and have a smile on our face.  

I'm "Verified illuminati", what about you guys? Take a screenshot and post it here.

I'm convinced there will be a hidden tag for which you have to use a very specific image (or fake image URL). Something like "Verified admin" or "Verified theymos", but try as I might I can't find it.

I'm convinced the tags are just random, seeded by message ID. The images themselves don't seem to be checked at all.

From what I've seen, I think there's some complicated math behind it.

Ahh, I never tried using an image that had already been posted - does it give different results? Would have been a nice little Easter egg though.

I have no idea. I just assumed it would based on a gut feeling which may or may not merely be the result of an unusually good serving of mashed potatoes, but to be fair, my gut can usually be trusted in such matters. But feel free to repost my nudes in the hope of gaining admittance to the Illuminati. (That's a fun sentence to quote out of context. )

I think there is no need to show off every bitcointalk member profile, this is a frustrating day (1) April, all personal identities are verified, sent.
Not necessarily you will return (10) years to come.
Enough this is a secret for each member, we don't need to smile.
You are unconsciously included in this list:
You agree to have this information shared with the IRS, FBI, CIA, NSA, Federal Reserve, ECB, Interpol, Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Equifax, Chainalysis, and your parents:

You know, humans are not eternal, what if @theymos doesn't exist anymore, what about the identity that has been sent.

The image doesn't matter. Even a broken URL will give you a badge. It takes your first post in the thread that has an img tag and I think Foxpup is right about it using the message ID to derive a random number. So changing the image in an existing post won't do anything. Removing the post (or removing img tags from it) and posting a new one will give you a new badge.

Thank you for helping me figure out why I couldn't change my tag.  I had quoted a post with an image tag. Now that I removed the image from the quote, I am verified illuminati rather than verified sucker. I think I will keep this one.

Let me fix mine

It takes a lot longer now to change than it did this morning. 1000+ posts breaking KYC

Awesome idea, guess mines pretty accurate.

Congrats, you got a nice one, what with being good at stats. Theymos not so good at spelling though.

At first second try
I read it as stasti cian, but if you read fast, it's quite fitting

[Last of the V8s]

I got the same Verified chart-watcher twice. w/e man w/e

[LTU_btc]

I'm ✅ Verified LOUD. I regreat that I haven't saved jokes from previous years like coin badges under our names or new rank requirements - it would be fun to remember . It's strange that nobody still haven't made historic list of Bitcointalk April Fools Day pranks
@LoyceV, you're not verified human anymore. I think we can say that "Verified crazy stastician" = verified AI of Bitcointalk

[TheBeardedBaby]

I was verified snitch for a day.. for the rest of the time I'm only quiet snitch with a few thousand reports...I sometimes hate myself ...

[suchmoon]

This was a close call... I hope it didn't hurt CSW feewings.
