What happened with GenesisCommunity/go-genesis?

[rif]

Was that a fake branch? Can you give us more details?

Oh, I see. So do you have any new plans for token distribution?

[c-darwin]

We can't use stars to identify github users who want to get tokens, but we can use the search.
But there is one problem. The search result isn't sorted by date https://gist.github.com/search?q=genesis_public_key

[rif]

Maybe you can use the API https://developer.github.com/v3/gists/#list-all-public-gists and perform some filtering on the results

[c-darwin]

How we can get genesis_public_key sorted by creation date?

[rif]

I need to go out for a while but I'll have a look when I am back (and post it here if I find a way) :)

[rif]

hey @c-darwin, the only way I could get the gists sorted by date is to make a scraper that will crawl over the exact search you suggested above, collect all the results, sort them by date and than print them back:

https://gist.github.com/rif/d3958ee14758052976203b391d86208e

Steps to run it:
go get -u github.com/gocolly/colly/...
go run search_gist.go > results.json

There is a 10s sleep between each page in order to avoid Too Many Requests error

Hi @rif thank you for your decision. But we can use stars for sorting and parse the list in parts. Today I received an answer.

May I use secret gists, which are not counted in any of your ratings, to see the GitHub users who want to receive tokens? I could use search https://gist.github.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=genesis_public_key&sort=created&order=desc , but it doesn’t allow for sorting by date of adding. That’s why I want to use stars in secret gists.

GitHub Support:
Yes, in the case you describe it would be acceptable to direct users to star your secret gist. If that's a change you're willing to make, let us know and we can unflag this account.

@c-darwin I have stared the 'GenesisCommunity/go-genesis' before it was flagged, and I have copied your genesis_public_key gist in order to change later, but back then the repo was flagged and I had no other way to get my own public key so I just let the gist with your key. And now when I checked the link above I found my name in the list of users associated with your key, is there a way to change it?

[c-darwin]

@yalhyane we will fix it.
