SALE! Five 12" Behemoth Chopper prototypes

This morning I was wondering if I need a BC... then I picked up my LC and got all giggidy. I'm good for now. If I had a BC in hand, though...

There is a unique feeling to the Light Chopper that never gets old, I'd be a lot more upset about the weird post shuffling if I didn't have my LC to console me ;)

I disagree with the popular sentiment on here that posts kept reshuffling randomly ala a lottery system! I was also # 3 on my screen as I had clicked "Post" and it refreshed but I think that was just a snap shot representation of when my own screen had refreshed. It is rather peculiar to me that more than a handful of people have also claimed that they were too at the # 3 spot (edit: as was I!!!!) After the dust had settled, I was around the 18th claimant and the fellow who was just above me on that initial screen was then the 12th, IIRC.

I think that the system organizes in precise order rather than shuffling but because of the influx the final dusts settles when the screen populates. I believe that the first 5 winners were indeed the fastest without benefiting from reshuffling. I knew that I had messed up and wasn't going to win when I had clicked my own entry, because I just felt too clumsy and slow as compared to my past winnings! I was actually very surprised that I was momentarily a #3 which I did not trust and did not get too excited about just to have my dreams crushed.

I would have to guess that the initial rank we see individually has more to do with how the BF server is communicating back with our device based on our connection speed. The lag from our device hitting the server and bouncing back is creating a discrepancy. Our device sends the info thinking it is #3 or #4.. but the BF server doesn't have a chance to sort and verify the incoming signal from multiple devices and send an accurate refresh to everyone before the cutoff. Our pages refresh without the updated info from the BF server, and we all think we won. On the BF end, the incoming information is likely muuuuuuuch more accurate, so once the signal is resent to the individual devices, we see what really happened.
