6loss

Who this is

A Reddit account that showed up under one puzzle on December 23, 2013, the same morning after the Wickex and IAMABananaAMAA night. givesadvice4bitcoin posted a picture at 05:40 UTC, a small image full of things to recognize, with 1 mBTC behind it. The comments went through a crossword, a book, an eye, a letter O and 36 Down. At 10:39 the prize moved.

Then 6loss wrote "Claimed =)" and that the money would go to a new puzzle. The author congratulated them and wrote the name into the post as the winner. Nice and tidy.

What the record says and what it doesn't

Two facts, both comments in that thread: the claim with the promise, and the author naming the winner. Whether the new puzzle ever went up, the record doesn't know. No later post by 6loss is on it, and a promise in a comment isn't a puzzle. If it turns up, it gets a collection of its own.
