No, all who took parts are winners!

Indeed. Trophies for everyone!

it's a travesty

I only thought there was one winner

Obviously depends upon how the id is generated and this so-called competition excludes people who post from different time zones who get time stamped by the CUK server. which is deeply unfair.

where I live, we are in a different era, never mind time zone

I think it would still fit within one packet, but last time I checked the CUK server was in Manchester, so your post had further to go than AtW's

Unfortunately a lot of packets often route via London to Manchester

Admin should really move server to Bham...

Where is the backup server?

When suity is proved right about WW3 I want to be sure I can still post nonsense.

Either that, or the longer post took an extra nanosecond to submit....

Ahem .. there were two 23:59:59 posts recorded

Yes, but the post IDs show that AtW's was the last of the year

I really would love to know by how many milliseconds I missed it. Admin, please put me out my misery.

Losing to AtW by firing early I could deal with, but missing the boat is unacceptable.

It's like 'sale of the century' - bid over, and you're out.

The effort he put into it is so, so, inexpressibly sad

Imagine how sad it is for the loser!!!
