Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A daily launch board where $1 votes burn a shared pot and the vote that burns the final stick wins the homepage.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-25 issue.

Field notes

The site separates free URL submission from paid participation: visitors load a wallet and spend one dollar per vote, with a two-second cap between votes. Its observed Nim Night board contains nine launches and a stated 10–15-stick secret pot for each launch. The winner is determined when a vote burns the final stick, then occupies the homepage during the 01:00–02:00 UTC game window. People vote in the browser; scripts and agents use the separate API key.
