168QXzVRKmFwDe7FowBkTA8t9Af1QjMZdg The game is quite simple: Whoever predicts the day and time Matthew N. Wright deletes his account* on the BitcoinTalk forum (or comes closest to it), wins all the Bitcoins in the address above. How do you play?You simply send Bitcoins to the address above with the last digits corresponding to the date and time you believe Matthew will leave in the Middle-endian (month, day, year; e.g. 04/22/96) time format. If you match the date he deletes his account or come closest to it, you will be sent the jackpot. Let's say I believe Matthew will delete his account on 12/12/2012 at 12PM:I'll send . 12121212 Bitcoins to the address above making my prediction, with the last 4 set of digits being the specific time. Please note that a specific time is optional. If you do it, it must be based on 24 Hour time (e.g. Midnight = 24:00). Let's say somebody else also believes Matthew will leave on this date. They can simply bid a little more at .011212121212 Bitcoins. If Matthew happens to leave at or nearest to that time, the higher bidder will win and the jackpot will be sent to the corresponding address. This will all be verified through the Bitcoin blockchain that cannot be arbitrarily modified, viewable at http://blockexplorer.com/. What if you just want to increase the chances of Matthew deleting his account by giving such an action greater monetary incentive? Simply dump Bitcoins into the address without an intelligible prediction. Why should we trust you to payout the jackpot to the correct winner?I have an excellent reputation on this forum. My greatest example includes taking out a 100+ BTC loan from the moderator Theymos to short-sell Bitcoins. Every Bitcoin was returned. Contact me for additional references. Anyways, I will be curious to see how this turns out. Have fun! *by moderator

Wright deletes his account on the BitcoinTalk forum (or comes closest to it), wins all the Bitcoins in the address above. Would it screw up your game terribly if I deleted my account before anyone deposited? Also, why do you think everyone handles conflict by deleting their account like you? This was very poorly thought out game overall in my opinion. As goons can prove, I still have accounts at websites where people have literally tried to murder me for my bad attitude and trolling. Anyways, I will be curious to see how this turns out.
The only way my account will be deleted is if theymos deletes it. That however would mean no one wins (including theymos <3)

You could "predict" the time you delete your account and claim the jackpot for yourself.

Wow guys, come on. All you do is rip on each other. Why not put your energy to productive use? Both of you has contributed in the past, and you could do it again. Just sayin...

I think Atlas has a great potential for writing and possibly even management over time. I am not ripping on him. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) I do think this thread is a joke though. No one would seriously donate to me deleting my account fully knowing I can create a new one instantly.

I am not. To answer the latter question, the monetary incentive or lack of therof will sit indefinitely.

How many poorly-specified contests are you going to attempt to set up? This is at least the second one where time of day is critical, but again, you've failed to specify the timezone the contest will be judged in. You're an idiot. Given that you can't even think through the rules of your contests before announcing them, why would anyone expect you to actually follow through? You'll just come up with some lame excuse and close it down.

I bet 0.00000069 that Atlas is retarded.
The transaction fee was 742 times the size of my bet. Do I win a prize?
