I love that you allow room for some doubt!

I thought you had recognized that and were making a joke about that misreading.

I wish! Yes! That is exactly what I did :rofl:

Personally, I would have written it thusly
1 / ln(1,000,000)

Yes, also avoids confusion with (1 / ln) * 1000000

No? Would you wish for those parentheses to be shifted slightly??

My ID is quite far from being prime :stuck_out_tongue:

52 288 = 26 × 19 × 43 = 1100 1100 0100 00002

Here’s the game which shares my ID:

Thanatus is such a metal name for a Go player.

I have an account that I played on before the OGS merge pre 2010 (I think maybe around 2008) that is in the 25k area. Only had around 20 games on it though.

Jayy (361) was modestly active all the way to 2017.

The same is true of infx22 (289, ie. 17x17).

441 (21x21) is our mod @VincentCB! Interestingly, the two players with IDs behind him – HeWa (440) and tim82 (439) – are also long-term active players, HeWa rather more so.

Green Tao theorem states that there exists arithmetic sequence of any length in primes. For example,

457339, 625129, 792919, 960709, 1128499

is a arithmetic sequence of length 5 which consists of prime numbers only.

So far I have not found any 3 active users whose IDs are prime and form an arithmetic sequence (or in an arithmetic sequence).
It’s trivial to find 2 such accounts, since we can claim every pair of prime numbers is an arithmetic sequence of length 2.

Odds are that one of our regular trolls, who make multiple accounts every day, will win the #1,000,000 “sweepstakes.” And then they will be banned in an hour, flushing the number down the memory hole forever.
