i keep seeing people explaining crazy methods to win on satoshimines, they are mostly fake and don't work. but this one seems odd enough to work

can you explain more on how it works. i am a little confused here.
The method OP posted (and any methods/tricks others posted) doesn't work, in the sense that the EV is always negative. OP has successfully turned 0.1 btc to 0.302486 simply because he was lucky.
Yes, it doesn't work for all as it's not a leaked method to decode the hash and predict the score. It's just a strategy that worked for OP and it was more of his luck that helped him to earn. I believe there is no point for us even for trying this.
