Hi ck - that was actually us, mining using your 'pool'.

Just sent 20,000 to TP faucet.   Turning off the box now.

A while ago - 2011 February 2nd.

Exactly correct - I nearly had a heart attack when I started the testnet client, and the coins started rolling in!

But yeah, the miner has been running for weeks, and nothing has changed... I guess the Mojo testnet faucet is about to get lucky

Anyone want some testnet coins? I've got the odd thousand spare... 

Hi! I'm Alex from BitPOS (www.bitpos.me)

I can shed some light on the recent TestNet happenings perhaps.
We control the testnet address n2U7mXV4HFumkKLt7jz8LhNqKHMszTP39c - which received approx 25,000 coins today

We run a piece of (old) mining hardware on Testnet (and have been for the past month or so), to generate coins to test our POS system, and to donate back to the Testnet faucets.

For some reason (that I have no idea of...) - we received 25,000 coins or so in the last 6 hours.  Any idea why that would be? Thus far we have been receiving maybe 50 coins a day...
