Hah, that's a blast from the past. One reason it lasted as long as it did was the Knights of the Button, users who collaborated to keep it alive. I implemented the Zombie-presser, 1k+ donated accounts automatically pressing the button when no one else would. We kept it alive for a more then a month before the most embarrassing bug of my career finally killed it :D Good summary here [1].
Fun times! Thank you for the reminder :D

Though to be honest, if that’s the most embarrassing bug abra0 is doing great.
Sometimes Reddit is excellent.
