click on the "community" button; scroll to the bottom and see the row of random profile pictures there.
Now press F5 or refresh and see how many times you have to press it before you see your own picture.
It just took me 61 tries!!!!

(I know it's a boring and stupid game, but so am I)

Maybe this will help you pass the time. ;^)

113 tries! Chiqui came up about 5 times before I came up once!
I came up first time on this one though :P

Geeze, I had never even gone to the bottom of the page to see that there WERE profile pics there. There's neat stuff hidden all over DPC!

I saw a few cool profile pics before I found mine.

And if you happen to look back in this thread Ben (or an SC member), do you think you could knock one of the w's off of the title (I think there must be a bug or something as I never make typo's!!!!)
Thanks.

Thanks.
Such diligence.
And that's another reason you are an SC member and I am not.

I hit it 5 times and then saw grigrigirls profile and was distracted. I am sorry what were we doing?
 07/27/2006 10:43:32 AM · #10
after 5 clicks I saw Konador.

Sorry, it's too stupid to just click and click and click and click and click.

516 times. i'm serious. I thought about quitting about that many times too but it's like gambling. I didnt want to walk away empty handed and have all that time I wasted be for nothing. I figured it was "due" to show up. LoL. Thats why I should NEVER go to Vegas. :)

I'm at 400 times without seeing myself and was considering quitting, but after reading your result, I've been inspired to continue :)

Got to 40 and then quit.

Wow!
And I was gettting worried at 50!!!!
I was starting to think that maybe there was some code that wouldn't let you see your own profile.
I think if I had gotten to 600+ clicks, then this thread would never have been started.

I wondered if maybe I couldnt see my own profile pic too. like maybe this thread was a joke but I didnt want to give up. my profile pics a camera phone pic too so I thought maybe it wasnt good enough lol. but after the first hundered I saw enough horrible profile pics that I doubted that was the case. ;) there are alot of GREAT ones too though.

I've seen your profile pic about half a dozen times...I'm now over 500 and still haven't seen mine...wonder if someone cancelled my account without telling me :)

No, theres tons of things I SHOULD do. But I have no concept of "Priorities" lol ;)

also, didnt think it would take so many refreshes but I can't bear to give up on anything. I'm one of those "follow things thru" types who also happens to have a super fast connection so i was clicking pretty consistently. no real lags between refreshes. most of the time i read the name before the pics even came up adn moved on if it wasnt mine.
 07/27/2006 12:27:37 PM · #23
40... and thankfully so few clicks too, since I would have stuck it out until I found my name!
 07/27/2006 12:27:54 PM · #24
just 5 times to find my own
