Happy New Year! Once again, we can pretend to be legendary grandmasters. However, it is not enough to look like a LGM. One must also act like a LGM. I've found that with a little bit of practice and experience, it is easy to figure out who you are really talking to.
By popular request, the magic game is back.
I've also added a "your statistics" page so you can keep track of how accurate you actually are. After a few days, you'll also be able to see the statistics for the comments already in the game.
Play at magic.fft.ee
Hint: this doesn't include users who are not participating in magic, so you already know the person in the picture is not a real grandmaster.
GM/IGM
Newbie
Bro I saw this comment today, I think it was by drydock.
Yep, it was!
it's so hard to guess your rating in the game, as you have the skills of GM so you act as an IM/GM perfectly but actually you are a newbie...
Lol
Lolol
have reloaded 100 times still my comment haven't came :(
lol,
lol

lol , I got my comment from the first try 💀 💀
Reference
Toughest one so far!
Would be best to filter comments that are (almost) empty if images are removed.
Also an idea: view the stats for a specific user's comments.
Hard
when this comment is shown in the game, plz choose master/intermaster cuz i'm not :)

You can't fool me
Now you can see statistics for each comment.
I'm dying, best game I've played in a long time. A couple of feature requests: making rank distribution more even (assuming normally its skewed), adding leaderboard (I learned first hand that auth is hard since I started coding real apps, anonymized name mapped to cookie session should be ok?), filtering out comments that appeared before
i saw my comment!!!
New comments have been added that were made since posting this blog.
Also, please relax CloudFlare config to allow automated requests. DDoS protection (or preventing submission scraping) shouldn't require blocking all requests that aren't made from a browser. Or add the magic rank to the API. The way I fetch the magic ranks right now is ridiculous.
Hard
haha, it's mine :)
I chose newbie
its showing auto comments
add more comments!
LOL I got my own comments. What are the odds:) (This one)
1% or so. If you have commented more on recent blogs then the odds will be more I noticed.
Only 1 correct in 20 guess.
I am surprised to find my comment appeared, and nearly 40% correctly guess my ranking.
Funny how only 1 guessed my comment right.
This become the 2nd most inaccurate comment guessed, with the 1st being https://magic.fft.ee/comment/1335815. I wonder what the only person who guessed this correctly has on his mind...
