HELP trapped in one day time loop

Hey I think I'm caught in a time loop so I'm gearing up and making some contacts. Post something I couldn't possibly know about you so I can post it tmrw morning (today) to surprise you into letting me get in touch on short notice. I'm working on figuring out my possible range of travel and it would be good to have people. Thanks!

edit: woke up this morning (Tuesday) like a regular person, so I think the loop ended. I got four days total. I didn't bother my roommate about it on the last run, so she doesn't even remember me being weird about anything. I'm a little disappointed, but it's probably good that I can go on to live my life now. Send me a PM if this happens to you. I didn't learn much but I'll be quick to believe you if that's something that would be helpful.

    I'm unsure if this is the lowest quality fluff yet posted or the most enlightening thing I've ever seen on this website.

      I tried this yesterday and you gave me the same string -- I don't yet have any way to take very technical information with me. If I figure it out I'll ask again

      why would you know what that is out of context? is it your Tildes account password?

        Nah. If someone really wants to bruteforce it though, its sha-3-512, and short enough to be reasonable, if not quick.

    Well, you would have send the detail before I post it in which case I would have already received the pm. P.S. How did know I have exactly 3 hair on my big toe?

    I have rectal bleeding when I poop.

    I don't have anal sex, I do not shove stuff up my butt. This is something only very few people know.

    Tweet at me atLetter10Media this fact and the number 1028. This is not my birthday or anything directly rated to me. This is a number I came up with when I try to make contact with a past version of myself. If I see these two facts, I know you're legit.

    Edit: I worry exposing this information may now lead to false positive...

      interestingly enough, I also have a contingency for this situation. I wonder how many other people have these?

        I have a few stations off-world myself plus a series of cleverly stealthed satellites that I can send and receive information from my temporal location on Earth. I monitor my chronotons with my present self while constantly comparing them for what they're supposed to be to make sure there aren't any misalignments between my current time and correct time. Sadly I keep losing more minutes every day.

        This happened in "2004"

        Yes, I did write this.

          The only flights I can catch out of my town in the morning are at 9am and 1pm, and the top of my loop is barely 8:20 my time, so it's iffy. freedom of movement might be an issue. edit: hey cool...

          still iffy but I'll give it a go. tbh I don't know what happens to people I interact with thru each run, I've only done four so far. I'm assuming you just go on with your life, but no way to know.

      I haven't got a sense yet of how the transition between loops works. I'm not losing consciousness or waking up back in my bed or anything really tidy like that. I think there's a spatial element, but so far I've only experimented a little bit. I drove to the other side of my state so like 200 miles and I just wound up back here so I might find out I'm actually very limited
