Hahaha, how cowardly of you.

Why not tell me directly, as opposed to mumbling about me like a common coward would?

Pack of sissies..

I'm with you on all these counts. I raised the same objections to his proposal for using obsolete prime-proving tech (of which I suppose this is a special case).

Pi, we're doing this in the open, not by PM; there's no attempt to hide this from you.

Even so: Why not directly tell me the supposed "objections", that you had?

I've already given you objections, repeatedly, to your obsolete prime-proving category. Since this is just a particular form of it, I didn't feel the need. Further, I was responding to posts by sm and kar_bon, so of course I addressed my responses to them. Finally, there was no need to alert you to any of this because the posts were made on a public forum that you visit, on a thread where you are very active.

It is entirely optional if one wishes to submit something for #20.

What poor scapegoating..

Started a search for item 3; b = 600; n = 26; k = 1 to 10000. In other words; k * 600!²⁶ + 1.

Each test takes about 80 seconds.. Nothing so far, but I'll get something sometime soon for that search. The odds should be excellent.

We must have different understandings of the word "scapegoat", because this sentence makes no sense in its context.

You asked for my objections and I explained them.

And I refuted them. And you merely were reduced to blaming me. Scapegoating??!?!?!??

That's precisely what I said. What possible meaning could you have for that here?

You refuted none of them!

At what point did I blame you? (I can't rule this out, but I don't recall doing it.)
