Phew! What an insane ride it has ben! But as they say, "Every good thing must come to an end." So, Million Sat Madness has reached to its final hurrah with less than 24 hours left, the last day before we crown the still invisible. That's fine but the question is that 'Can you hold on to your berth and take the last ride together?
I don't want to be judgemental here but experienced that many stackers have already accepted their ranks on the leaderboard. As a result, the overall interest in the MSM has declined in the last few days. I know this happens, and you can resemble it with any year's EPL or NBA points table. After a team consistently underperforms, it subsides with the thought, 'may be next year'. But this isn't the best practice at all. In long competitions, we must keep fighting without looking at our numbers.
We already have a points table, yes the leaderboard, that reflects who's in and who's out of race. However, as things stand 'nothing's lost until it's over'. As Robert Browning says in Prospice-
I was ever a fighter, so—one fight more, The best and the last!
So, Stackers, we have one last chance to press the paddle, and why can't we press it with brute of a force so as to bring dignity to our attempt. The dignity not for the sake of winning but for the willingness to keep fighting.
Enough of devil's provoking the fallen angels, let's just reflect on Million Sat Madness for one last time before it becomes history.
Who's the Winner?
Believe me I wanted to start on a serious note but then I thought what could be more serious than suspense? Yes, it's still a suspense and noone in the top three has unmasked upto now. I have said it before and saying it again, @siggy47 is at the top there and if there's no stabbing in the back at the last moment, he may well glorify the throne.
Who are the other Masqueraders?
Well, I said I wanted to be serious! So, bring out the mirrors that peep through masks and show only the rael faces. Yes, there are many Masqueraders on the MSM leaderboard. Even the projected winner @siggy47 isn't ready to unveil. What dost thou fear?
Top fears that so far we know stretch from privacy concerns to downzapping to take them down.
The few others that I had identified in the magic mirror are @Natalia, @0xbitcoiner, @kepford, @anon and if your mirror is better than mine, please help.
Million Sat Madness — What's with it?
So, here we're. You can finally get a taste of seriousness.
- @Undisciplined became the first reasearch scholar by proving that MSM is highly based on The Keynesian Beauty Contest (that has nothing to do with beauty) Link #473181
- @cryotosensei is the stacker who became the first teacher ever to deliver a lecture on 'How to Win MSM, link #450330 As he is a prolific teacher, he also demonstrated the value of scarcity. Link #445953
- @0xbitcoiner seemed the most satisfied as he eventually found his dream job of a scorer. His enthusiasm of never missing to read a score shows how much he had dreamt of this. His various scorecards: #478456 #468367 #458914 #451743
- @Coinsreporter became the first ever rebellion to soft fork MSM leaderboard with his own. Link #470166 (Sorry, SN!)
- @Tef seemed confused about preferences of stackers and could get nothing but more confusion. Stackers are yet to deliberate upon their preferences! Link #451551
Hope, these are some very serious interactions about MSM and considering they are scarce, we need to put them in a locker from the fool's day.
Learning Along The Million Sat Madness
Everyone always offers food for thought but I would love Cigarettes just because I learn one thing and forget five others. That's who I am but MSM wasn't about me, nor March 2024, nor is SN. Learning in fun or fun in learning (take it as you like) is deep rooted in SN veins (devs can call it code). Here are some hit numbers from MSM Jukebox —
-
@davidw gave us a thought that there's not much difference between love and hate. #447944 It's not the only one from him, He concluded 'less is more'. How? #450871
-
@Natalia knows the real worth of traveling—it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller. #484127
-
@expatriotic taught us how boring it is to stay at one place. The world is beautiful and we got two eyes, read it - #457267
-
@thebitcoinbugle illuminated our souls about how wrong we had been while cursing cigarettes and type writers. #464167
There is so much food on the table right now that it's become harder and harder what to pick up. So, it's better to say that everyone on SN, be it an owner of extraordinary wisdom, or a curious chimp, or a serious pathfinder, or a naughty trickster. You all have been awesome in March. Hats off to all of you..
At last, I want to mention a special thanks to @DarthCoin for rectifying the sins that Normies and noobies commit unknowingly. You're a big man now, (you've prove it time and time again), so if you can please start showing largeness. I know you're right almost everytime, so if I offended you, I won't stop until we get another Million Sat Madness competition where I crush you. (Just kidding) 😂
On a happy note, I bid my best wishes to all of you! May the best one wins!
