11:00 PM

this is going to be risky, we might lose answers if we DV here, but I think DV is till better

Agree

because we're guaranteed to lose quality if we don't

DV

yep

I wanna rip my hair out here

The definition of insanity... =)

11:01 PM

Hmmmm. You guys remember when Questions got stuck? I wonder if it's safe to close vote at that point.

Not saying we should test it now

that sounds very unsafe lol

let's see if answers holds

pwned

awesome, that's totally better

I think the safest stage would be right before you fill up users and quality after answers hasn't been voted for 2-3 rounds.

this might actually be a max if questions golds

never DV when maxed gah

this is going to be bad

phew, ask went through instead

I think the default maxed answer is answer, right?

or maybe upvote if we just answered?

11:03 PM

Or questions

whichever was earliest

I don't really like questions when maxed

it doesn't seem to be that helpful

Hmm. Are we in a loop again? Questions and Users stuck?

Oh man

gah who is nothing-ing

Would have prevented questions from decaying there...

Two people voting nothing

11:04 PM

we're getting rekt by nothings

shit vote vote vote

we're getting raided

@Kevin What would have prevented questions from decaying?

40% restart

Questions at full

You think doing nothing stops decay?

nope

this is going to be bad

oh good, we got a majority

yeesh

I go with the restart people every so often just to scare yall ;)

11:05 PM

free users

I almost wonder if ignoring users entirely is the right choice. It seems to recover hearts on its own.

restart vote occurring

woah not that time

hehe

this is getting ugly

11:07 PM

I think the raid might be slowing down

nevermind

Four people raiding us

Kevin inspired me to raid

?

I have to go for supper but I can't let the raiders win

I'm throwing strat out the window and voting whatever everyone else votes just to prevent a restart

11:09 PM

"I go with the restart people every so often just to scare yall ;)"

7 restarts

We now have at least six raiders of the lost ark

getting serious

That sure backfired on me then

This is the competition I wanted to have earlier today instead of all the crappy complaining.

2

I hope they win too.

Think they gave up though

Down from 6 raiders to only 2. Booooooring.

11:11 PM

just had 6 or 7 there

Yea, we maxed everything and they pounced on the opportunity to confuse us.

9 raiders

9 raiding now lol

10

we might get restarted here guys

:)

@NathanMerrill we are not raiding. Period

rusrs

WHEN ALL MAXED, ANSWER

11:14 PM

?

^

stalemate

I get the feeling we're going to be restarted soon

trolls much?

woww.

Welp

Wife is about to kill me.

Being dead is probably worse than losing a battle of patience against trolls.

@KevinStricker Maybe you should by a new wife. I heard amazon has some.

11:18 PM

lol

Amazon has everything.

crap misclicked upvote

@KevinStricker Especially if it's about temporary internet-points.

good job overruling me guys :p

2

We tied. NOT GOOD ENOUGH. Drop and give me fifty!

11:20 PM

I'm helping too :D!

I'm helping again.

thanks

we can definitely use it

After this win, I gotta head out. I'll hang in there until then :)

this is nuts

I love it

I'm not exactly loving it

maybe some gentle, loving raiding

11:21 PM

This is the most intense stupid game ever.

it is quite ridiculous

but this is pretty aggressive, not loving raiding

Someone should post our record here:

A: What's the shortest time for a completed StackEgg?

I'm submitting 252 from blender beta, the fastest beta-site time so far.

user image

All it takes for evil to prevail is for good men to click 'Nothing'

or to not click

11:23 PM

I like doing nothing.

Back up my claim on our best time please: meta.stackexchange.com/a/252447/254466

at the very least, these restarts are slowing us down a lot

If, of course, you saw it happen.

Support your site :D

A: What's the shortest time for a completed StackEgg?

PPCG, 235 Days Screenshot. Confirm in our chat if you have doubts about the screenshot. I won't embed the image so this post stays nice and short.

which is pretty rude

come on guys, just like 10 more days

11:25 PM

@Runer112 PPCG was one of the starters, but they reformed.

I'm well aware

And now for a restart vote break

Keep it up, just a few more days....

this is going to be a definite restart vote

oh wow, we pulled it together

sweet

I think I might have saved it. :D

11:27 PM

so close

so when we finish, do we keep going strong? or let the raiders let out their angst a bit

High five.

Time to run away from the wife.

as long as you can still click

HELP

nevermind

we won

woot

bai

Bye

11:29 PM

raiders still going strong

What's the point of restarting at this level?

Aaaaaand I'm gone.

none, they're griefers

slash bots

a sad moment

how do I contact stackexchange supermods

because we're definitely stuck in perma-restart now

11:30 PM

@Runer112 No need.

I will.

@ChrisJester-Young You are an SE employee?

Unless it's bots, they'll get bored soon enough.

they;re bots

they restart very fast

The do it instantly

I know some are, but I don't think they all are.

11:31 PM

most of them are, at least

I've seen some flagging and nothings also.

I wonder if we could build a not restart bot

Chooses the most voted for optoin that isn't restart

so I'll ask again, how do I contact stackexchange supermods

then everyone just leaves it open in a window

guys we need to just stop fighting it

there's no chance they'll give up while we're still trying

let it die out a bit, then we can resume

11:32 PM

Vote not to restart

actually, the raiders may already be done

yea i think theyre done

only one for the last two days

seemingly

nevermind, they're back

just toying with us

11:33 PM

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

quite

if this goes on ima leaf

it stopped?

yay it stopped :D

The mod said it serves us right, and they don't know of a way to stop bots.

4

At least not effectively.

**:>

im leaf

Geez I got 90 rep just for posting our score on meta.

I was certain that people would say "Oh look, it's that guy Rainbolt again."

11:39 PM

Tell you what, guys.

?

I know of a site that doesn't have restart bots trained on it.

Oh, they quit?

Or did they get turned into Nothing bots?

It's not bots dude. It isn't consistent enough to be bots.

OK.

if they were bots, they'd've kept voting restart instead of voting nothing.

11:40 PM

If we all can agree on one, we might be able to prevent it.

And they'd be going monotonously for hours.

Instead they seem to happen in spurts

Anyway, if they aren't in the chat room...

human-bots eh?

I thought you leaft

o ye bye

11:41 PM

Want to know the site?

we should all go to another obscure site and make it win

sounds a bit like you guys were actually restarters

This site is related to a Chat Room.

btw, we might be able to actually do stuff now

there's only one or two griefers left

I'm going to try, if anyone wants to join me

just restart fresh

alternate ask and answer

we're barely outmuscling the nothing-ers

just lost to them

@Runer112 Go join a different site, Arqade if you want to help a winner, CR if you want to help my site, SO if you want to help the site that started it all...

Come on, let them restart the egg to their hearts' content.

11:58 PM

we're getting a bit of steam

might be able to carry through griefing

now have two griefers

anyone willing to assist?
