Wow Mechanic. You get all the screwy code malfunctions . What browser are you using? Do the 1s actually fall, or are they just floating in random places on the page?


1.

I was ducking for cover, wasn't sure exactly what was going on.

Interested to see what comes of this, doesn't seem to be any sort of link.

Maybe they're starting their data transfer already, but I don't see any zeros accompanying the ones...

They start in somewhat random places, and move downward.

I am looking to find any other thread that does this. A couple other people have noticed this as well.

Haha, sweet. I see it now. It's only on the 20000th page of the "Last to post" thread that I can see.

My guess is that it's just a political statement about how many "one-liners" are there.

I love how they randomly fade into the page. fancy.

Or someone found a way to hack that page?

Strange, indeed!

Welcome to the MATRIX!??

I've been viewing source and don't see any _javascript that obviously accounts for the cascade of 'ones'. Its neat though.

Where did the underscore in my text come from. Don't see it in the edit box.

maybe it is a new game!!!

Crazy... havent seen any other thread which has had flying 1's... crazy!

Oni x x

As even I don't know the reason, I have (at least temporarily) removed the topic.

Member jade1991 used a style-sheet crack to deface the thread/site and has been banned.

Timer has been stopped at 22 minutes and 34 seconds. Slacking guys, slacking!

Lets cut that down to a cool 15 minutes.



to the staff

Post restored.

I see S.O. has already stated what the problem was - everyone go back about your business....

That was pretty quick!

The End!

Everything weird happens on that there thread, so far we've had a billion and a cascade of 1's.

I wonder what will be next!

ooooooooo gosh! Don't people have anything better to do?!

I say put it back up again willingly . It wasn't doing any damage, and everyone can agree on the kewlness. As long as it didn't secretly give us all trojans or something.

I'm surprised they went so small. Just running a little test for something bigger? Because if they could do that, I assume they could have taken the whole site down.

... at least for 15 minutes



Like discussing the number 1 falling from the top of the screen?
