Very true

relevant discord message

2 left.

@Ginger make gingerbot commit :P

YOU FOOL! I HAVE 7 ALTERNATIVE ACCOUNTS!

that'd be voter fraud :p

love how the committers graph has an upper range of 250

@Ginger that's one per discord server I've spread the word on

@lyxal nah, they're all listed in my bio

doesn't change the count of discord servers

huh

you said "I HAVE 7 ALTERNATIVE ACCOUNTS!", I said "that's one per discord server I've spread the word on"

I've been busy :p

relatedly, I just finished bingeing the Snapcube Sonic dubs

1 more

AAAAAAAAAA

Since Snowpaw's sentient, I think they count as a person

holy shit

200

OH MY GOD

WE DID IT BOIS

happy dance time!

alright, so: now what

guess we can close this room

now we wait

more waiting?!

I hate waiting, it always takes forever

I love how that message implies that there's a crack team of SE devs currently assembling the site in real-time

when I'm sure in reality all we did was get an email sent to the head of site management or whatever

...

I'll be honest, I expected more confetti

oh but you know what this means: Rydwolf might have a shot at being pro-tem mod

actually I might have a shot at being pro-tem mod

which would be funny as hell

don't forget me

I have one too :p

Oh hi, only just learned this room exists

yup

once the site gets created we're going to move over to there

@lyxal quick, make a Reddit post!

and all that other stuff!

now is a time for celebration

for what? There's no site link to link to

can't post about nothing ;p

yeah you can, I do it all the time

I have higher standards of quality

nice, chat's back

Who are going to be the pro tempore moderators?

@mousetail IIRC they're auto-selected after a few weeks in beta

that's to be decided via election

No mods for the first few weeks then?

seems like it

i guess keep an eye out on y'all's emails

yay

:+1:

wait, will it be an email or a notification? I hope I configured my email correctly lol

there's your confetti

knowing A51 it'll get sent to the wrong address and someone at SE'll have to screw with databases to get it fixed

@lyxal yay

tell Olive that Ginger says "yay"

ask Olive what the f are you doing with your poor cat what the hell man that is hella stupid dude look at how sad it is

huh, 201 committers

did any of yall know about this?

Nike dattani my man working hard

I'm somehow referred by Nike Dattani but I don't understand how

lol

NO WAY

YES WAY

AAAHHHHH

WHAT TIME DID IT HAPPEN

TELL ME EVERYTHING

13:09:12 (UTC I think)

lyxal saw it first and posted a screenshot

and then there was general freaking out

So there's no beta yet, phew

yeah

I can be there for tha---wait I can't

I gotta go take a mock AP exam for the next 3 hours lol

presumably someone at SE headquarters is working on getting the beta ready

but it's been like 4 hours and nothing's happened

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

@Ginger nah 3

¯\_(ಠ_ಠ)_/¯

I have no clue if this is a thing that exists, but I really really hope it's possible I can be made a like, not-yet-moderator. I'm turning 18 in 5 months, and really really wanna be a mod, so I wonder if if y'all were to put in a good word for me, if lyxal and one or two others could be made pro tempore mods for now, then I could be added on my birthday?

I'm not sure there's an age limit for pro tempore mods?

I'd imagine there still is

But if there isn't that would be awesome

Wait if it was 9 o clock and now it’s 1 pm… that’s 4 hours

also having you and lyxal as moderators would be funny as hell

Can Snowpaw be a mod too

they're under 2 days old, so probably not d:

@RydwolfPrograms lmao I was thinking about that too

WE NEED THIS

@Ginger what about meeeee lol

@RydwolfPrograms need what?

Snow as a mod

well if you do that then I'm essentially a mod because I control that account

speaking of, here's fun fact: I personally control 7 accounts on this site

Damn, that's a lot. I think I've only got 5

I’ve only got 2

Actually 3

One is an old one linked to my gh that I abandoned

then this one

Oh wait yeah I've got 6, forgot about my old account

and a third one a51 created wonkily

Oh wait also I've got Redwolf SMP

So 8. Boom, get outsocked, Ginger :p

Wait I cannot count

That's 7

lmao

well since mousetail's a clone of me I actually have 8

@RydwolfPrograms what

A bot that was going to syndicate chat messages between my Minecraft server and a chat room

I'm somewhat surprised that, like, Catija hasn't popped in to say "hey guys congrats on your new site"

I thought she was omnipresent

Right now we're probably waiting on an SCAPDFATIAT

wouldn't surprise me

@Ginger I’d expect mast

Whoa proofassitants went from proposal to private beta in 3 days

mathematicians know people I guess

well, guess we get to wait until next week?

but like we hit 100% on Sunday, so does that mean we have to wait until this Tuesday or next Tuesday?

It’s not Sunday for you anymore?

huh? it's still Sunday for me

You talked about Sunday in “third person (time?)”

as if it’s not sunday

Someone uncommited

moment of silence

w h a t

I swear if someone drops us to 199 I will personally find them and break their kneecaps

challenge accepted

Oh okay so we have some time to chill and strategize before we become beta males beta users

I'm thinking we should hold back the best questions posted in definition by those of us who are actually in this room

Some will probably get posted by people who come up with them independently but we should at least have a couple to try to HNQ with right off the bat

whoo

yeah my inclination is that the really-popular but also not super involved ones should be held for public beta

because those aren't the best chance to show how well the site works but will blow up like hell for hnq

@RydwolfPrograms Heh, I'm an alpha* male and therefore an alpha user

*flawed, unstable, not ready for the real world

@user guess you could describe what I write as "alpha programs" then

Which makes you an alpha programmer
