Q, if you're no longer hunting, can you get yourself a cooler tripcode? I know you've got better things to do, but come on.
It would cost anyone less than 10k USD to mine a normal DES tripcode within days. SHA1 is a different beast but surely you can do it.
I'm poor so all I could do is
Q#Z!!!6?5=
Q#)U$0n]0n
Q#lUB='!g2
You get the idea.
