make a generic bnet account and enter that to see if it was used. Then if it wasn't, give the account to the winner or make a new contest

I'm hoping Rich would have said something in regards to that "children" picture to verify if that was true. If not, then I can't really take it for truth yet.

EDIT: Sniped

I won the key

It was really easy; I just took the numbers you guys were posting and amassed them in one huge file. I then wrote a simple C++ program that would read the file and create various threads, namely Children, and feed their values found off of this formula:

To the parent thread. I then got a number and input it in the address bar of R1CH's link.

Good try guys!


This can't be it. The OP states, "to get the link, click here". It didn't say anything about retyping things into the address bar. I feel so misled. >:[

R1CH, just try to register the key in an account? If it's not taken, give the account away!
Bronze skipping straight to Diamond in 40 games retail release. Bnet 2.0 ladder really takes it's sweet time to think about that league placement.

If he can't explain what the answer was without potentially giving away the key I guess it means that the numbers may of had something to do with it

The funny thing is I had a python script running in the background ready to pounce when the next key challenge was posted.... big help that was, not...

Though I did find that Python 2.5's HTMLParser library didn't like the html given to it and stopped processing tags halfway through the page.
