Congrats! to you 5 yearers and those of us 3 year Peeps too!!

I can now confirm that the badges for this event have been handed out to all who qualify 
 
There are only six people on the forum with the five year badge 

Right guys, So I'm going to delay the final blog post as I am still waiting for @jakkuh_t to give me the LTTStore codes, I will however get it written in the bg and when I have all the prizes I can get it posted asap 

Finally ranks are now all sorted and confirmed, prizes to be done with a rng and then blog after food. 
 
Here's a secret video of me cooking
 
 

Fusion reactors. Soon™
Getting rid of nuclear energy was a mistake.

Darn my dog ate my work unit, can I get an extension?

I offer you all this AI created poem to commemorate the event.
 
A poem about curing diseases with video cards and CPUs from generous donations.
A computer’s power, a chance for a cure
A chance to make the future secure
High-end video cards, CPUs and more
Can give us hope to explore
Donations from all around the world
Will help us find the cure we need
To fight the illnesses that plague mankind
And have our hope succeed
Data and algorithms that bring new solutions
Can help us find the cure
Achievements made from the work of many
Will make us forever sure
We thank the donors who lend their aid
For providing us the means
To discover cures for all these diseases
And to make our future dreams.

First off, @Slave2school I am going to have to ask you to cease and desist you are not allowed to pass me...😭 and don't think I don't see you as well @GuardianAngel_.... on an unrelated note, @GOTSpectrum Does my ego getting destroyed by getting passed at the last-minute count for the list of the dead? 🤣 asking for a friend!
 
Second it appears we now have 9 people in the 1B+ club for the event Welcome @Ben_F . It looks like @miker07 and @Shlouski will both join the Elite 3+ Billion Club in the next 2-3 days.
