Hm. So your original bitcointalk post is:  2023-10-26T02:26:40Z  but I believe bitcointalk gives you a grace window of 5 minutes to edit a post without showing it as edited? So that pushes us to potentially: 2023-10-26T02:31:40Z .


But the mined block time was 2023-10-26T02:26:57Z (which I realize is not necessarily exactly when it was mined).  And your archive of the seeding event is 2023-10-26T02:26:59Z which is actually 2 seconds after the mined bitcoin block time.


So while I'm sure you aren't cheating in your seeding event, it's also not obvious to me that you fairly picked a client seed either. I believe it might technically have been possible for you to post a seeding event, then once the next block was mined, edit your original post, then use archive.org to snapshot the post-edited page. Because this uncertainty exists, you've kind of defeated the purpose of the seeding event.  Had you picked a bitcoin block that was days (or at least, hours) ahead of time and widely dispersed details of your seeding event and methodology it could be obvious to see the client seed was fairly picked.
