You mean the lack of cranks, trolls, et alia browsing the thread?

The lucky son means the wrong mersenne prime.
I say lucky because I didn't have the luck to see it, I only got the bigger stuff when I open the page , I would recognize the 2976221 for sure! Now he has to get the candies...

I got it too! But now after the war, it is too late, I assume no candies for me... (I thought is fixed, after the discussion here)

(edit: yeah, luckily Gordon didn't see this thread, or he is too busy reading the new prime's thread, otherwise he would be all in your head by now )
