I AM NOT CLAIMING HE DIDNT, I am saying understanding how the fuck network addressing works this evidence and also mere timestamps is a fucking balls way to accuse someone and in the real world would be laughed out of any courtroom.
Do an ipconfig on your own machine and try to figure out how the fuck you communicate with the world on the interweb with a fucking class c ip address.

The 65.49. block of IP addresses are registered to Hurricane Electric. Guess he got bored at work. The 198.70 block is registered to sprint.

Wow.

I am so sad.

Glad it isn't me, though :\

I agree that IS the most awkward moment. That's more awkward than Newsy talking about his cameras =O Auuughh!!

With no timestamps at a min this means nothing at all and timestamps would only be circumstantial.

I'm going to disagree slightly but bring up another possibility. I also have a networking background and I doubt, out of millions of people, that the same IP could be spoofed 37 times like that unless someone decided to screw Paste for some reason. Weirder things have happened and there are people I work with that I could see doing something like that to someone that has pissed them off. (Us IT guys are basically a group of assholes when we need to be)

However, the lack of a total, angry, blanket denial though makes me think "guilty as charged".

It was amazing how weird and awkward I felt watching this happen live. Now, I've downloaded the podcast and I am going to relive it!!!

I don't think Paste has been subpoena'd. Then again, I haven't listened to this episode yet.

I'm right with you. I have to say - I was shocked. I would have hung up the phone but he seemed as stunned as I was!!

[xlnightmare]

I would, but I do agree. My heart dropped lower than low. Talk about Heart. Break. I thought Keith was joking for a minute I was in denial for a good hot minute.

Dear Keith and Chemda,

I want to sincerely apologize to you both for inexcusable action of gaming your voting system. Although "cheating" isn't what I'd originally intended, there can be no argument as to what the outcome was.

I discovered a security vulnerability to get around the voting process and used it at first to figure out how far Angie the Canadian was ahead. Then I got crazy over the power and it went to my head. I'd banked on the fact that I could stop,with us at dead even, and the tide would no doubt turn back to Angie's favor as she'd only need to win by one. Unfortunately, "calling" the contest early was something that I hadn't foreseen happening.

Despite what people want to believe about me because of my Eats Paste persona, I want to tell you that this is absolutely outside of my normal character spectrum and I am truly ashamed.



I ask for your forgiveness Keith, for bringing a cloud over what should have been -and no doubt will still be- a great occasion for you. I disrespected your KaTG community and I am extremely humbled and sorry. The public humiliation of the phone call was absolutely warranted, and certainly well deserved.

I ask for your forgiveness Chemda for the same reasons mentioned above, but more so because I know that it has placed a probably unrecoverable tax on any friendship we might have had. I'd always feared that you hated me before, but now, I have given you absolute Just Cause, and I am EXTREMELY sorry.



Mostly though, I apologize to Angie the Strange from Canada for attempting to steal a victory from her. Things got out of control and quickly. I'm glad that I got caught as standing on that stage and having to look you in the eye would have been quite unbearable. Please forgive me if it's in the Canadian heart to do so.


I'm without words to apologize to my friends and the people that really voted for me this year. To you all I wholeheartedly apologize. I gamed the system and I got caught. I do feel better for getting busted. It truly was a hollow victory.

To Brolo: Mother Fucker, nicely played. Again, My Brother, I acted in a totally disrespectful manner that absolutely goes against any example that I'd been provided with growing up. It will be difficult for me to look you in the eye sir, if we ever meet again. I apologize.

Jeremy. Good lord. What was I thinking? Of course you caught me. I was a fool to think that I could have expected to get anything past you. And the same to Michael K. I owed you both much more respect than I afforded you with my half baked scheme. I owe you both a debt of gratitude because it honestly was a very sour feeling. I'm sure that you figured out what happened by now. But, if you'd like more detail, feel free to email me.

And lastly to Emmy: I'm impressed by your ability to recite my phone number from memory. But, you said that I was cheating on my wife. You were wrong. That accusation was out of line and off topic. And, for that, I do not apologize to you.

Finally, I rest my fate on the decision as to whether or not I will be allowed at this year's stand up taping at all in the hands of Keith and Chemda. I would still like to attend. I fully expect that there will be plates full of crow for me to eat. And, I will humbly bring a fork.

Sincerely,

Eats Paste.
