So I held an experiment 2 days ago. Here are the findings:

  1. Results

    • 20 people entered the giveaway
    • Nobody bumped the thread
    • The thread reached to bottom of the page in about 11 hours
  2. Side effects

    • onk now has new ideas for puzzles
    • MrsSadisticChicken changed her profile picture (other factors may have been involved)
    • I actually made a thread for the results
    • Mullins attempted to blackmail me and failed
  3. Conclusions

    • An unbumped giveaway will have less entries that a Whilelist (99 people) giveaway
    • People will resist the urge to bump if you tell them it's for science (or threaten to blacklist them)
    • Potato

Obligatory giveaway for making a stupid thread
You're allowed to bump this one.

How much did this experiment change your life?

View Results
My life is completely different now
It didn't effect me very much
It didn't effect me at all
I don't think that qualifies as an experiment
Who are you again?
I'm a scientist and I find this offensive

i don't even remember replying to that thread...

The experiment is over, right? Because I just posted there.

It is. Though continuously bumping a thread with a finished giveaway might confuse people quite a lot. Could be a whole new experiment

Okay, I posted to the giveaway too, just to make it less confusing. Or more. Or something. Definitely a data point.

Edit: I almost forgot. Potato.

So... no 42 in conclusion ?

I'm pretty sure you did something wrong, recheck your calculations

The 42 is hidden in the findings: 1.,2.,3.:
1+3=4, 2 still available => 42

I am here to serve my master. You want to bump, I bump. You want to blacklist, I accept. Dobby is here to serve his master!
Master has to give Dobby anything so that Dobby can be a free Elf.

Hope you get my Harry Potter reference (It's not exactly on point but I felt like saying it :D
