Many thanks to my compatriot Cuddlebeam. I will roll the dice shortly.

Hm, Derrick got an edit in after me establishing his research, but because of EE timestamps it’s impossible to know when this post actually hit the blog

I think we have agreed in Slack that my wiki edits were in first, and I had a comfortable 40 seconds between my edit and Derrick’s to make this post, so I probably have this legitimately.

Though after all your anti-pooling remarks, your name is tarnished.

Looks legit. Explaining this for future historians: Josh performed enough Research to win, and posted a DoV which they’d started editing twenty minutes earlier, so had that timestamp. Derrick took a Research action shortly after, so it’s unclear whether Derrick’s Research happened before the DoV airlock closed.

The Wiki API shows a gap of 39 seconds between their own Research action and Derrick’s. I guess it’s up to us how to interpret that, and whether Derrick has anything to say about the timing from their perspective.

And ah, there’s Derrick’s response. So it’s fine by me.
