Nice, it made me into judge floro. :D

How exactly does it choose the new user? I'm seeing a number of obscure people with only a few posts, some from many years ago, but at the same time the current regulars are still more common than you would expect if it's picking them at random from the entire user list.

When you first log on, it makes a list of all the user IDs from all the messages posted during the past 15 days.  (This is why everything slowed to a crawl when I first turned it on -- everybody online was populating their cache.)  It then selects a random user ID from that list.  This method has the advantage that the people who post more often have a higher chance of being selected.

There is a 1 in 10 chance that someone from the entire user list -- not just someone from the past 15 days -- will be selected.  And there's a few-in-500 chance that an additional random profile tweak will be performed.

Does it just change your identity at random?
