The bad news is that the DPCs trashed us again today. They flushed 1.356 million blocks more than us for today and they're only 80 million blocks away from us! :(

We've gotta do something about it! Their output is incredible! Hmm....

They just dumped some stuff that they had in reserve. That's why a few of their miniteams jumped in the daylies.

"We've gotta do something about it!" --> How about most of us get off our asses and assimilate rather than pontificate? It seems that a lot of us want to do gardening without getting dirt under our fingernails. We can use those dumps of theirs as cow manure to get a more luxuriant growth in our own garden.

But anyway, congrats to all for the half billion! :)

Woooooooooooooooooooo Moooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Congrats with thee Half-a-billion-block-buster (did somebody say "manual recount"?), The second Milestone of TA within a week :).

PS, be happy with what you've got and not dissappointed about what you're gonna loose.

(DPC wants, just like TA, fruits from their labour :))
