Mind helpin' out I-Mockery real quick? DIGG

[Mockery]

Gracias all, thanks for digging it. I'm not sure what the number is before an article becomes "popular" on there, does anybody know?

I refuse to cooperate in aiding I-Mockery, they just delete my/my friends posts all the time!

If anything, there needs to be a site so I can exhume the hideous corpse that is I-mockery for all to see!

Screw you I-mockery and your moderators that can eat old Christmas candy out of my lint filled belly button.

The digg guys are hailing it as a "triumph of free speech" even though its on a patented and copywriten product.

It's not just the total number of diggs that make an article reach the front page, it's also how quickly the article gets diggs, how many page views or comments it gets, etc. A story on digg can hit the front page with only 50 diggs if dugg up quickly. At least that's how I understand the algorithm to work. They change it now and then though.


ArrowX:

How can you copyright a single series of numbers without telling the world what those numbers are?

** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** ** <--- COPYRIGHTED
09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5H D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C1 <--- AVAILABLE
09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5H D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C2 <--- AVAILABLE

The copyright argument is bogus. It only applies for an entire protection system, not a part of a system (i.e., a hex string).
