i kept trying 3428 =) ... just took an hour or so <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/nerd.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd.gif' /><!--endemo-->

So from what you guys are saying... the instructions: <!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->The computer has thought of a random number between 1-5,000. Enter your guess for the number below. If you guess correctly, you will be given a form to fill out your email address, and I will send you a Gmail invite.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd--> Actually means that the "random" number is constantly changing --- so a person couldn't sit down and guess 1 through 5000 and be guaranteed one right number?

That SUCKS. <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I have to go cry now.

Jezpuh

Well as he said, just keep trying the same number, it will generate it sometime.

You'll most likely get it right before you've had 5000 tries, so it doesn't really matter. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo--> I'll give you an invite once I get invitations to give. (I gave the invite I won to a friend of mine and Infinitum gave me an invite, so I'll have double the invitation power. Woo.)

BlackPlague

ok heres my calculation

x = any number
z = ratio of random number


x times z times 5000 = WORTHLESS TRIES!

i have guessed about times but no luck!! <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

i keep guessing 999. Good old refresh button and resubmit post data. YEY <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I might win eventually

Its ten times faster to copy your number, hold down "ctrl" click in the box, hit v, and sumbit.

Grillkohle

Aw D:
Does anyone else have that ?

POOP_Akira

*hopes he still gets the invite*

How long did it take for most to recieve there invites?

GrayDuck

Back up now....

AnarkiThreeXSix

is gmail still sending people invites ? doesnt seem like many got anymore new ones :/

Grillkohle

I think I just got banned from it. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->
It says "Please don't just hit reload over and over again! That's not very nice.", which I didn't do. I just copied and pasted my number in over and over D:
Can someone tell me how many people are banned atm (so I can figure out whether I am banned now).

5 people banned....

It's not letting me enter in the SAME number over and over you have to change it. I even tried a few different numbers & went back to the one I've been repeating and STILL gotten that error.

You just have to change your number up. Browse away and back to the page, it'll let you back in.

Grillkohle

This is kind of stupid, they don't even post guidelines on what to do and what not to do. Moo.

[WHO]Them

I wouldn't either if I was making people jump through pointless hoops.


Now DANCE MONKEY!!! DANCE!!!

Ahh. I dont want him to bannzor my a$$, so im back to the copy and paste method.

I was so tempted last night while getting annoyed that i couldn't win to create an asp page to do the work of submitting the number, but i thought better against it. and im sure he wouldnt be pleased getting hammerd 15 - 20 times a second from the same IP. Grr i wanna win. Need gmail. first 3 invites i get from gmail i will donate back to the site

Gah, copy and paste is soooo slow

raz0r

i got an invite from the official GMail thread(stickied) but i got in there early <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
(infinitum rocks <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->)

But GMail seems to be 'unavailable at the moment'
i did have about 30 seconds of time in which it wasn't down, but i never got a chance to <i>use</i> it

I have taken the page down to add some important security fixes to it.
This is a result of many people trying to cheat the system, and have automated guessing programs guess the number

Because of the large amount of cheating attemps, and cheated wins I received over the past 18 or so hours, I am forced to nullify all wins which have not been paid out yet.
I know this will upset a few of you, but the truth is, the majority of the wins were from cheaters, and it wouldn't be practical to waste that many gmail invites

The site will be back shortly with a reset winner count, and a lot more security features to prevent future cheaters.

Thank you for your understanding,
Steve ( srichter [AT] gmail [DOT] com)

It's not your connection. I just got an invite this morning (thx again Fam!), and I never even got to see the beauty of the inside yet. I regged my account and went to login and it was already down.
