That coin is probably the most jaundiced, scummy coin on all the internets by now. Ewwwww  Tongue

Haha, that's funny  Cheesy

Received from you, thanks! Who's next?

Pot's at 3.95000554 BTC, who's up for having a raffle or a contest at the end of this to see who gets the added BTC?

Well, looks like the scammer ran with it. We can still move on if someone sends some coins to this guy...

I'll play.

I forward the coin to the next person?

If not, I'm out 1btc, but it was a fun experiment. Thanks to everyone who participated Smiley

We shouldn't have been sending $80 to people with accounts less than one month old

We?
You could argue that sending is in the responsibility of the person sending as else I could always send to my sock puppet even if the others doubt this to be a good idea. I'm pretty sure I brought up this scenario in this thread. Also we had discussed accounts younger than that game.

Done Smiley
"Geez I'm dense"? DobZombie denying responsibility a-priory? Witch hunt anybody? DobZombie for SCAMMER-tag?

To be honest I expected the experiment to "fail" and just wondered how long the scammers would wait. I would suggest to keep the witch hunt out of this thread and draw our conclusions. For me the experiment was a success and would be interested in:
How long did it take (min/max/avg/median/sum) from player joining to him getting the coin.
How much did we pay in fees (min/max/avg/median/sum).
How many people actually were labeled scammers later (currently at least 4! unfortunately scammers also delete their posts so I can't check on all of the list)

And here is the updated list:

Witch hunting is too tempting, sorry.

How likely is it that DobZombie meets Jakers in several totally unrelated threads within Jakers first 100 posts?

Well, looks like the scammer ran with it. We can still move on if someone sends some coins to this guy...

...

If not, I'm out 1btc, but it was a fun experiment. Thanks to everyone who participated Smiley

Huh? A while ago I offered to give someone a loan while they repurchased the coins and you said that it went against the spirit of the experiment. Did that change?

edit... Oh, it wasn't you, it was Fjordbit.

"Geez I'm dense"? DobZombie denying responsibility a-priory? Witch hunt anybody? DobZombie for SCAMMER-tag?

Are you serious.  God damn it! I thought something like this would happen to me.  I'll run you through what happened...

I noticed this thread and thought it would be fun...

FIRE AWAY!

Then...


After waiting for an address to send to I've posted...

Okay, who's next? Cheesy

Jakers then said...

Check!

BTC Address - 1K4pjMGTntWFvsaTbMhq5BJ7DVSbrpm86G

He had pointed to a post from several hours earlier.

It was then 36 Hours after the original
Okay, who's next? Cheesy
that I've realised that the address was there AGES ago.

I've then said...

Geez I'm DENSE

As a reference to the fact I was a bit slow in noticing that. Then posted...

Done Smiley


My bit was done... OR SO I THOUGHT  Undecided

I came back to check on the thread about a week ago to see what was happening.  Whilst scrolling down I noticed...

This is getting a bit dangerous tbh. Awesome nonetheless, but dangerous.

If I can play I'll tag-team with someone - 14vCb4rr1SdWFLDFgW4NMUbodPYqcCoRm2

If not ignore this Tongue


Too young, sorry.

I don't like that some people increase the amount. I hope the OP gets a reward for starting this and I hope that somebody does a sweet analysis of how much fees were paid on average, median, max and how fast the fastest 2-hops or 3-hops were etc. If we finally hit a scammer, it would take weeks until we finally decide the coins are lost and the focus would be on that one black sheep. This "circle" is not a group of trustworthy people as our dear pirate proofed so lets focus on what else this experiment can proof.

Jakers, as much as I like the name, I do agree you're a bit of a risk at the moment. Thanks for checking things out though, man.

giszmo, interesting thought. You know, I think the reason this experiment has survived through any scammers is because of the simple ratio of risk to reward. Any ill intentioned person who has taken the time to get up to "Full Member" or above simply just doesn't believe 1-4BTC is enough to lose their reputation for. In a way, even if you have plans of stealing, being apart of this game and playing legitimately may be seen as the investment in a greater opportunity. Really I think the only way we could "prove" things is if we upped the amount, or did an amount like 1 BTC for younger users like Jakers. Think we might get scammed out more often but also learn more from the experiment. Would be especially interesting to analyze the situations where scams do occur and try to learn what signs are there are to spot would be swindlers.

Maybe some of the followers of this thread already feed some scammer account to jump in when it's worth doing so. We are now 2/3rd through the game and it's likely the reward for scamming will be 10Ƀ later on. Maybe I'm one of them trying to save my stash from cheaper scammers Wink

Most likely it's 5h of work to feed an account to 100 posts and some users already have their sock puppet troll accounts that they can just as well make famous and start over.

My conclusion is more that 99% of all humans are trustworthy but 1% are capable of making huge damage. These 1% might not really care about 4Ƀ. These 1% are the reason we need rules and all kind of regulation – a society basically.


Some of the forums I've been on have over 1000 pages of scammer reports. It's actually quite sad, like wth you wouldn't do that in real life would you? I guess people think it's different when it's over a computer screen  Cry

I was like hmmmm.

I added this thread to my watchlist and then saw this tonight...



that is, i think, the first time in my internet life (which goes back to the late 80's, mind you) i've posted a meme picture in a forum...

And was then like FARRRK.

So my solution will be... (READ NEXT POST)

So I'm going to send on the original BTC1 to keep this thing going!

I want a new address to send these off to!

Otherwise I can send it back to Garr255 and this will all be over.  I would rather we see this thing to the end and Garr255 gets his BTCBTCBTC from the long way round Cheesy

so I'm going to post this as a reminder so people like me don't include people like Jakers (Fkn what a crusty vag hole that guy is  Angry)

Only "Full members" and above can participate, just to avoid someone creating an account to steal the coin
Does not apply to Garr255 verified Alpacas.

For the record, I recived 2.07811815 and passed on 2.08  Grin

Feel free to add such information for each transaction or just for yours.

For the record: The list of transactions is by no means consistent or complete. It was just all the stuff me and others felt worthy to be mentioned.

Are you serious.

A little bit, yes Smiley

Hey, DobZombie, if I had the feeling you would suicide in shame now, I would apologize but I don't, so yes, I really do consider it possible that you are in some connection to Jakers. I would have to check if we had some penalty for the last one to hold the coin but I'm writing this more in a popcorn mood than in anger over some scammers.

Marking all as scammers that don't repair the damage would be a tougher rule that we did not decide on. At least not in the OP and that's what counts.

Maybe we should start over with 10Ƀ, with the above rule that all get marked scammers that don't repair the damage done by subsequent scammers. This might get escrows into play.

I'd be the worst scammer in history Tongue 

I've used my Net Nick that could EASILY identify me, because I joined to be part of this community. There is only 1 DobZombie on the internet (seriously, check it out! Cheesy)  I wanted to be easily found so people will trust me, especially if I decide to start some kind of bitcoin business in the future.

Also, the "ARE YOU SERIOUS" quote wasn't aimed at you, it was just a general statement to communicate "OH MAN WHATAFUKINKNOB HE SCAMMED US DAMMIT!"

Tongue

So...who's next in this game?
