Blue pulls into 3rd place, followed closely by Scot. Dan and Napi still holding firm in 1st and 2nd place.

    Pyro and I (moreso Cody because I use a 1980's brick to run the program) are probs the wild cards in this race. We're catching up quickly for only half a day.

    I'm catching up as well, just started running it earlier today.

    Is there any way to get around restock bans? I tried using proxies and restarting but it didn't work :(

     

    Nope, just be patient. Stop the program for about 20 minutes or so and try again.

    Just out of curiosity, would it help if I switch computers and use proxies? Different MAC address, different IP, nothing to see that I'm the same person, should work in theory

    You can use different accounts of course, if you get restock banned. Some people are running multiple instances of the program at the same time, if you haven't noticed :D

    Waser: 20/24
    Dan: 21/24


    Scores...

    We're looking at about 83-87% accuracy for both theories.

    EDIT:

    Waser: 22/29
    Dan: 23/29


    Now sitting at 75%/79% respectively.

    You can run multiple instances? I've been running one instance all day (although I do switch accounts every two or three hours).

    Whoops. Someone got this in the bag, but I'll still run it for as long as we need to.

    There are going to be many more rewards, don't worry! It's not just first to 100 :)

    EDIT:

    We've just updated the website to see who contributed the lastest restocks as well. Nice job @Eefi


    ---
    EDIT2:
    Looks like both Waser and my theories have started to get around ~2 minutes out.

    They were very close for the first few hours but have drifted over time.

    Back to the drawing board peeps!

    It's seemingly random, I've seen anywhere from 5 minutes to 4 hours or so.

    I'd recommend stopping the program altogether when you're banned, just leaving it for an hour or so and then re-trying. Using this method has helped me to avoid a lot of the RS bans...

    Don't let my numbers discourage you from continuing. This is my contribution to society.

    Wait if you use two instances of the program at the same time and catch the same restock, does it count as 2 restocks?


    Yes.

    if you have it checking at different time intervals you could catch one with one account and not with the other?

    Yes...?

     

    Because I'm an introverted egomaniac so I refresh to see my own score goes up by one, but I haven't been paying much attention to other people. I've seen yours, Rocket and you have been only been increasing by one as well.
