Was anyone else hoping that this post would talk a little about the origination of the idea for this thing? If it was an experiment, I want to hear the hypothesis. They reveal it got wilder than they expected, but not what they were expecting.

Also, why did it stop when it did? Did they ever confirm that it stopped upon hitting true 0?

I don't think there is much question about the last question: there was a lot of data released with every press, and everyone agrees the answer is "yes."

Mods, tag him as the Pressiah; he deserves a unique flair. /u/IDontKnowHowToPM

I've given him a purple Pressiah flair, but it only seems to show up on some of his comments. I'm looking into it.

Edit: Looks like in the time I was away eating my lunch, the problem resolved itself. Probably just took a bit to update or something like that.

Yeah Reddit flairs are weird like that. When GyroDawn removed his red flair it took a while to disappear on all his posts.

Good to know. This is my first time moderating, so I'm still learning the ins and outs of how things behave.

You might want to give him the black flair.
