Topic: April fools 2020 "virus" (Read 782 times)
Auntie Gugl would have had the answer...
I didn't infect anyone which proves that washing your hands is useful, BTW who knows the address of Naida_BR, i have a long talk with him about insurance 
By the way, all users who were infected now have to spend 14 days in the quarantine 
I am calling for "infected" title or biohazard badge to recognise them. They are very dangerous for the community! 
Theymos, thank you for prank, it was fun like always. But some posts were really difficult to read 
.
.The virus had a random occurrence so if you refreshed the post you were reading the infected words also changed and with 2-3 hits of F5 you could read all posts
It's a bit too late for this tip but... you never know, theymos said that he'll keep the source code of the virus just in case.

Why do I always have to satisfy with 2nd position always? In the EPL pool probably I am going to finish in the 2nd position and I see here in the 2nd too. F toke and F UserU 😋
Good to see you are still trolling 🤪
Have fun brother.

Any stats on the spread of the memetic infection that causes feverish virtue-signalling, demoralization fetish, and intense fear, and acute loss of sense of humour leading to behaviour destructive of self and others?
Seriously, this joke was sadly and inadvertently a sociological experiment. The reactions of various persons were quite revealing as to character.
I did not infect anybody. I suppose this means that I am too socially isolated. :–/
It was bitserve who infected me. With poetic irony, the infectious post was:
Good explanation yeah. That makes sense. I would never depend on a third party sanitizer, but I get the point in this case.
LOL. I should have wiped the forum with 70% isopropyl before I made an April Fools’ joke that was admittedly in very poor taste:

... I just hope this could also apply IRL so the lockdowned areas will be back to normal. Good Day to All! Thanks to COVID, theymos got a better idea on April Fools. 
Holy shit, I'm sure my victims were only a handful but I didn't expect to top the list.
theymos, can we have a badge for that "achievement"?
Wow you did have so many infected users based on the stats and the top list. If this were for real your gonna be in big trouble. theymos, can we have a badge for that "achievement"?
Haha yeah theymos can give you the badge of this virus with your profile currently infected. Do you want that? Thats the reward (as you mentioned achievement) for being the top hitter. Well, it can be removed when the cure is invented.
It doesn’t look like we managed to flatten the curve before the vaxine came along:
As expected with you mate. Always looking forward stats like this even with a gypsy phenomenon that magicly gone today. Hahaha or better deactivated.Thanks @theymos you got us all with the pandemic type virus faster than corona.
It doesn’t look like we managed to flatten the curve before the vaxine came along:

Thanks God I am not infected. But I am in Home quarantine now. If anyone publish a list of home quarantine, I must be found there.
Being infected does not mean that you get an award for this. In few places of the world those who are effected by coronavirus and are at the last stage, are being shot dead
You should get yourself cured as quickly as possible.
I know, not something to actually feel proud about haha.
Thankfully theymos snapped his fingers and now its gone!
Holy shit, I'm sure my victims were only a handful but I didn't expect to top the list.

the only country I know where they shoot COVID-19 patients or potential carrier is North Korea (but the news about it is still too vague and has no concrete evidence. but the Idea of North Korea shooting a possible COVID-19 carrier is not too far fetched knowing how strict their country is.). can you provide any source of this "news" where they shoot patients that are in the last stage of the virus?
Thanks for removing it. Glad it's finally over
IT was fun for the first 10 minutes, but by the end of the day, some posts were unreadable

So I infected iasenko and ice18 
Sorry guys
Sorry guys I guess this was kind of revenge for bumping up the April's fool threads the day before
@Theymos, thanks for the fun, I understand that the virus is a tragedy for some people but no need to be offended by the joke. It's like to be offended by this guy.

Looks like I have some beef to pick with Bthd, who infected me with this post:
I'm glad I'm "cured", posts became harder to read.

I'm not infected, still. But working on it.
I'm glad I'm "cured", posts became harder to read.
There was only one "patient zero", Sanitough, who I chose by looking at the latest posts at an arbitrary point in time and picking the most recent one which mentioned "virus". It was basically random, and definitely not meant as any statement about Sanitough.
Random choices lead to random and weird coincidences:

Happy April fools !

A very quick overview on the forum virus spread.
How many victims?
1059, in total, include the case-0, Sanitough.
Incubation period till having symptoms, in days.
Maybe there are bugs because I saw some extreme outliers in data. If in real life, there is a virus with such incubation period, it will totally destroy our world. Anyway, it is a joke.
There are details on those extreme outliers:
List of top- and super-spreaders.
Super-spreaders mean who spred the virus to more than 10 victims.
Min - max: 1 - 14.
Median: 1; Interquartile range: 1 - 3

That was definitely perplexing at first but obviously in no time got to know it was BTC-COVID-19 virus which has spread across the forum.
I wish there would have been choice to make an anti-dote and see who wins! Just some random competition in a thread with anti-decoding!
Cool tricks played! loved it.

How it worked is that whenever a post was made, an infection had a 50% chance of passing from the new post to the previous post, or from the previous post to the new post. In other words, it was passed between adjacent posts. (But the random number generation was deterministic, so you couldn't "force it" by repeatedly deleting&reposting something.)
Asymptomatic infection had been happening for about 12 hours before symptoms started appearing. There was only one "patient zero", Sanitough, who I chose by looking at the latest posts at an arbitrary point in time and picking the most recent one which mentioned "virus". It was basically random, and definitely not meant as any statement about Sanitough.
On Apr 1, symptoms started appearing, though the spread of the virus continued exactly as before. After 30 minutes, your name got corrupted; after 3 hours, your posts got increasingly corrupted depending on the amount of time since you were infected. The roughly 150 people infected before Mar 31 @ 23:30 had their symptoms shifted forward in time, so they ended up as "asymptomatic carriers" for up to ~12 hours.
Here's data on the virus's spread. Note that I designed this "forum virus" to be easy-to-implement and interesting; my goal was not to create any sort of realistic coronavirus model. I suppose it could perhaps serve as an illustrative example of some general concepts, though, such as exponential spread.
Happy April Fools, and stay safe & sane in these unusual times!
