    at this point there's no reason to think dustin will change the rules of the thread. my guess is he won't since the rules were in the first couple posts and the event runs for a while. it would really just cause a headache to try and changes the rules after the party starts. the extra stats on the site are just numbers with no impact on the contest, only one number matters - the total post count. everyone can keep operating exactly as they have been.

    Agreed - no reason to change the rules. Just keep with the existing rules from the first page: "For posts to be eligible and counted -- they should be generally helpful and neighborly towards the community. It’s our goal for this to be fun for everyone and it’s community-focused, meaning we’re all among friends - therefore we reserve the right to disregard posts that are naughty or just not nice!"

    I think @MrEd's stats page is really neat. I'm a numbers guy and I can also appreciate the effort that went into building out the site.

    +1 for @MrEd 's site! it's so interesting to see all the data we can harvest from this thread. and it's not intended to judge anyone or change the dynamic of @dustinc great RackNerd black Friday party!

    @MrEd might be fun to do a top 10 or 20 list of the words most frequently used in posts

    Top word is Racknerd surely

    definitely! I suspect Ryzen might be up there. let's. go. page. probably all in the list.

    Well... everything is possible, but I have a feeling, that the top words would be:
    I, a, the,... maybe somewhere at the top would be giveaway :D

    Party must be right up there

    Damn!
    missed it again. :(
    Congrats to the winners.

    Your username matches the situation... :D

    I'm thinking of changing my username. I choose this username because at that time I was very pissed on what is happening in my country. And I don't intend to use this account permanently. Maybe create a new one. But that doesn't happen.
    Does LET still allows changing username?

    I guess, you could ask moderators. When the username is so unfortunate, maybe they would even do an exception :)

    grats @sh97 on another big win on his birthday!

    and grats @MrEd solidly snagging a win!

    I'll probably be giving this away to a community member as well, still making up my mind.
    I already have this beast, so... But let's see. I'm using the current one as a test bench, maybe I can find some long term use for this.

    I did had an offer posted few pages back " If anyone win 30+ gbs storage server for 1 yr and want to exchange it with a 1yr reseller of 80gbs clientexec please do let me know." If you are interested or willing to transfer without exchange do let me know :smile:

    Alright, let me think about it. I actually had an offer for you a couple of days, didn't get a response then so passed it to @Arjun42

    If you already have an exact match, you could try asking Dustin to extend the exiting service at least by half of the prize, that would be a win-win - you don't have a second idler, Dustin spends half of GA. Of course, I don't know he would agree to it, but you can always ask :)

    Good idea, but usually options are limited for giveaway items, but let me see. Thanks for the suggestion!

    Thanked by 1MMzF

    Anyways, I will think about this. The bigger priority idea right now is to implement some kind of filtering ability, so that users could find themselves by some strict rules as being first :D

    Has anyone ever tried to use cloudflare tunnels like tailscale?

    I had a BF deal back in 22 I think. Not really had much use for US servers though so happy to see their NL and FR offers.

    RN just need to expand into the UK

    Good morning!

    @dustinc , please make a decision. Since I added the count of similar comments column in the stats page, the activity of the thread has vanished. Though, I would say, now there are some discussions and it is now managable to read every message and participate in these.

    If you think that this column hurts the thread and it was better previously, just say and I will hide the column. Nevertheless, this is your thread and you should see what is better for your business ;) I just implemeted ideas of the community...

    Hi @MrEd -- I don't think more data is ever harmful - I personally always enjoy seeing all sorts of interesting stats and data (side note: you'd be surprised at the amount of data I had custom developed for within our internal Grafana dashboards). So that being said, on my end, I'm always pro data. As for the forum activity, we're currently in that phase which I like to call the "calm before the storm," typical for days leading up to Black Friday. We're all gearing up for what's to come :)

    The primary goal has always been to maintain a neighborly and enjoyable atmosphere in our discussions, and to my understanding - it seems we're right on track with that, just as in previous years.

    I appreciate the diverse contributions from all users here, and always enjoy seeing creativity. Each person brings a unique perspective to the table, and while not every topic or style may resonate with everyone, the important thing is that we're all here to have a good time. If there are aspects I'm overlooking or if there's feedback that I need to hear, I'm open to it. Ultimately, if the community is enjoying the interaction and finding value in the thread overall, then I'm satisfied with how things are progressing.

    Please feel free to keep the column if you believe it adds value - I do appreciate all your contributions and efforts either way :)
