I guess, someone joined, who wasn't part of a team before.
They only did 700k, compared to TA's 1,5M.

Hmm, interesting tactic.

I remember one of our members suggested recruiting one of those in Team 0 right?

 

[PeterN]

It is indeed interesting, only they will never be able to keep up with us.

Might be an interesting option, trying to make contact with some non-team affiliate and then suggesting to join TA. Nah, it is a nice idea, but almost impossible to do without stepping on someones' toes. 😛

Peter.

Heh. The Slashdot Effect can be very powerful (I've been part of it pretty much since the start 🙂 ). If they mention RC5 even once on the front page, they could easily get a good number of new members. It'd be kind of funny if we advertised on /. though 🙂

This reminds me of a time, about a year ago, when I made a "dennilfloss-like" recruiting pitch to someone known as Mycroft. He was a lone cracking machine. His response to my e-mail was basically, "Thanks, JonB, for reminding me to join a team. I'm joining /." Ouch. Anyway, Mycroft and I still e-mailed for months, but I became much more cautious in my recruiting efforts after that.

Nooooooooooo! we will get them tomorrow 😉

If anyone misses it, send me an email and I will send you a screen shot. Or if anyone would host it again send me an email 😉

 

[ViRGE]

Hehe, good ol' Slashdot, they don't give up until the last second possible.🙂

That's good right? More fun this way!
