So I came across this bullish post (huge shoutout to u/Expensive-Two-8128) where the video shows an easter egg at a score of 42,069.
Then i remembered I had saved the html code of the runner game a few times:

I compared the old and the new code and found these differences:

When I saved the html code I would have never thought they would ever literally change the game, but they did! Here is the code from the index.js file:

When in doubt, you can check yourself; other apes and myself have archived https://nft.gamestop.com [1] and https://nft.gamestop.com/index.js [2] several times the last months.
edit: For those who don't understand: The code of the runners game was changed, they have added the shown code so that starting at a score of 42,069, there is a hue shift, the runners speed is lowered and the gravity is set on 0.1, as seen on u/Expensive-Two-8128's video.
Happy Wednesday my dudes!
I understand that Mac Jones, Jaylen Waddle, Kyle Pitts and Ja'Marr Chase are getting a lot of good stats and it is usually a QB award, but Creed Humphrey has been the best offensive player hands down this year if you look at PFF.
His 92.2 grade is so far ahead of Mac Jones it isn't funny (78.9 for Mac after week 16). If you look at top centers in the league, he's the number 1 center. Not just rookie, but all centers
Micah Parson, who by all accounts is having one of the best years EVER by a rookie, is at 84.8. Which is still almost 8 points behind Humphrey.
I'm using PFF because it is the best I can do to compare across positions, but some traditional stats help him as well. He's played almost every snap of every game at a spot that is important to have consistency. He's had only 5 penalties called against him all year, all holding. Of the 1045 snaps he's played, he's allowed 1 sack. He has been an elite player.

>Anthony Edwards: "They saw me 2,000, I’m like, ‘Man, KAT got 10,000 points, that’s his game ball. No question.’ That’s big. And he’s 7 feet, the best shooting big man of all time. He’s great. He’s the best. He’s the best big I’ve ever played with in my life, for sure."
We discuss the best runner ups all the time, like Boston Rob, Stephan, and Dom. Which runner ups played terribly and actively hurt their chances of winning despite possibly receiving votes at the end?
Have been trying to find a new winter running jacket, and all of the ones that I like (weight/material/look/etc.) have extra fabric attached to the arms where you're supposed to put your hands and fingers through. I don't find this comfortable and prefer just wearing gloves, and my friends who run share this preference. But jackets with hand slots are everywhere, so somebody must like them. Right?
(also, if you have a recommendation for winter running jackets that are good for ~10k-20k runs in up to -10c, please let me know!)
For starters the two had amazing chemistry on screen and they seemed to "Get" each other. Your thoughts?

Let me be very clear, I am not shitting on Nick, Nick is a excellent player in his own right and played an incredible game.
Mike White displayed a great amount of control throughout the entire post merge really but especially after the final Final 9. Everything went the way he wanted it to, and he spearheaded a lot of those votes. Only got his name written down once and didn’t need idols and only won one immunity. All while being in a lot of players ideal final 3s (Alec, Nick, Alison, Angelina all wanted him there). This is all while competing against the strongest cast of newbies ever in my opinion. Christian, who is a strategy nerd was mind blown by what Mike did in the game and voted for him at FTC.

BRI SPRINGS!!!!
The final vote was absurdly close: With over 1,700 votes cast, Jason finished with 51.3% of the vote — aka exactly 40 votes separated him and Bri.
I never watched Matt's season (but now clearly need to) so cannot actually say concrete things about her here, but yay Bri!
Jason comes in second after seeming like the major favorite to win early on. Shoutout to him for achieving the rare Bachelor Nation feat of maintaining both an active presence and good standing with fans years after the show — and for being an all around quality guy & supportive partner.
Here’s the link to the results from the Final Round.
And here’s a full spreadsheet of the complete vote totals / rankings from each round.
And here's the full elimination order photo.
Thanks to everyone for voting / following along every day!! Obviously there’s limitations to the format — it’s more of a measurement of who’s the least disliked more than the favorite. Greg and Tyler in particular would’ve probably done much better — and someone like Hannah G. would’ve likely done worse — if it was voting for faves/to keep people in the game.
But regardless, hope this was something fun to do for the break between seasons!
And here are some interesting things from the full game:
- Bri & Jason were the bottom two vote-getters through every single round — except the first one, when Ben and Joe received the fewest number of votes (aka the top four were the only people to ever occupy the bottom spot).
- Ben is clearly one of the most polarizing runner-ups since he was in the Top 10 of votes in Round 2, and yet lasted until the Final Four — i.e. his group of haters was staying solid, but didn't grow as much over time as others.
- He also looked like he'd make it to Final Three for a second after Joe finished with more votes than him when Hannah G. was eliminated. Was thoroughly looking forward to the way people's heads were gonna explode if he did lol.
- It seems like the Greg dislike has quieted on here since his Meryl moment. But the man sure had people ready to
Figured a fun Xmas poll would be good (for me it’s Vlad Sr. I feel like he’s won me at least 15 games on walkoffs (including this morning))
Now that the Expanse, both show and novels, are coming to an end, I'd love it if we could get an AMA with Dan, Ty, and Naren (and hell any member of the cast willing to join.) We have a pretty great little subreddit, made all the greater by their involvement in our community. Dan is a pretty common presence here, Shohreh has posted here, and maybe others that I've missed or forgotten. It would be great if together we could have a little chat.
I promise not to ask about the future of the show. ^I'll ^ask ^about ^the ^movies ^instead.
This post was inspired by recent statements from Ted Cruz about his chances at nomination in 2024. Specifically, this comment here:
‘The runner-up is almost always the next nominee’
How true exactly is this? I took a look through the last seven decades to verify the success rates for second vs first place. Surprisingly, Cruz seems to have a point; but uniquely for Republican nominations.
- In 2008 Hillary Clinton(D) was the runner-up, and became nominee in 2016.
- In 2008 Mitt Romney(R) was the runner-up, and became nominee in 2012.
- In 2000 John McCain(R) was the runner-up, and became nominee in 2008.
- In 1988, Bob Dole(R) was runner-up and won nomination in 1996
- In 1980, George H.W. Bush(R) was runner-up and won the election in 1988
- In 1976, Ronald Reagan(R) was the runner-up and would win two terms starting in 1980
On the flip side:
- In 2012, Rick Santorum(R) was the runner-up and bombed in 2016 early on
- In 2004, John Edwards(D) was the runner-up but his political career bombed after several scandals
- In 2000, Bill Bradley(D) was the runner-up and never ran for president again
- In 1992 and 1976, Jerry Brown(D) was the runner-up both times and lost nomination both times
- In 1996 and 1992, Pat Buchanan(R) was the runner-up both times but never became a nominee
- In 1988, Jesse Jackson(D) was the runner-up and never ran for president again
- In 1984 Gary Hart(D) was the runner-up and dropped out of the 1988 election
- In 1980 Ted Kennedy(D) was the runner-up and never ran for president again
- In 1972 and 1960 Hubert Humphrey(D) was the runner-up both times and lost nomination both times
- In 1968 Robert F. Kennedy(D) was the runner-up and was assassinated
- In 1960, Nelson Rockefeller(R) was the runner-up and became runner-up again in 1964 and 1968, but never won nomination against Nixon or Goldwater.
- In 1962 George Wallace(D) was the runner-up and never won a runner-up or nominee position again
- In 1952 Estes Kefauver(D) was the nominee and fell to the runner-up in 1956, but never ran for president again after his "switchblade bill" bombed
In my analysis, the vast majority of Republicans who received second place in the nomination went on to either become nominee 4-8 years later or ended up winning the election. On the other side, Democrats runner-up or election winners overwhelmingly had little experience running for president or h
