Technically I still fulfilled the requirements for your bounty. My address: 1Hd9sBNf8Z892jRGgrTzL9EuVUEhjfJvVc
Is this the public key you obtained from the private key you posted? How did you do it on paper?

No, but he offered the bounty for just the private key.
Where?

I am offering a 1btc bounty for someone who can demonstrate a repeatable method for calculating a private key using only paper pencil and brain
