Just a fun little experiment dressed as a game. I’m mostly just curious how this will go. Maybe this will be boring but that’s exactly what I want to find out!
Rules are simple: be the last comment within 24 hours and you win 5k sats + any zaps on this post!
5,000 sats paid
timestamp for the win

Welcome to the Commenter's Dilemma!
According to game theory, the best strategy for everyone is to cooperate. Here’s how it works:
If no one comments after this post, everyone wins because we all save time and effort.
However, if even one person comments, they might win the prize but they break the cooperation and cause everyone else to lose.
So, let’s play smart. Let’s all agree to not comment any further and collectively win the game of saving time and avoiding the chaos of notifications.
Remember, your rational choice is to stay silent. Will you cooperate for the greater good, or will you defect and face the collective disappointment? The choice is yours.
To show your agreement with this plan, upvote this comment. It'll show others that they are not alone in this endeavor and that we are all agreeing to chose for this best strategy.

lol this is going to be very interesting

I immediately noticed that this might be highly biased by time zone but let’s see

well, they have 24 hours. Its not like its hard to figure out at 0356 everyone should comment. lol

Instead of 24h, another idea would be a week or a month. Or last comment before bitcoin hits 69420 again
reply
I’d be tempted to write some code to comment at the right moment, but that feels like cheating. And I’m not at my computer
reply
And I think you don’t want to be “that guy”, lol
But would be interesting to know for how many sats people would start to cheat
How can i see when exactly it was posted?
reply
If you're on desktop, you can hover over the relative timestamp to see the absolute timestamp
If you're on mobile, you can't. But it's 2024-05-29T08:56:02.957Z, trust me
reply
Thanks, I use it mostly from mobile so I have to trust you:))
reply
Don’t trust, verify
reply
Oh no! I just realized that tomorrow is a religious holiday, and most people (europe) will be sleeping by the time the 24-hour period ends. I had an idea to improve the SN, and maybe someone else has already thought of it too. It would help combat the disadvantage caused by time zones. The idea is to allow users to schedule posts, and in addition to the cost of the post, a fee could be added. cc: @k00b

We all somehow know how the algorithm works for being the top comment, but how does it work to be the last one? 🤔 😂
reply
Then the saying is true: the last shall be first. 😜

Lol I am just here for the thread about to explode here

I can see a last minute tussle between a few stackers who will be trying to post just at the last moment.

I am so confused?? 24 hours? Wouldn't it make sense to just comeback in 24 h and just yak away?
reply
10 sats \ 4 replies \ @ek OP 29 May
Probably
But you assume you’ll have time in 24 hours and haven’t forgotten about it
reply
I think you're just going to attract sat hunters
reply
Did you just summon me?!
reply
it happens
reply
Couldn't one person just have a bunch of comments ready to go in 24 hours ready to go. Just shitposting. Unless this is what you want?
reply
The question is: Can someone make a comment before the 24 hour mark that's so amazing, it just shuts everyone up?
