CHIMPY:: VT100 (well VT220 if you have it) Tetris challenge relaunched!
Last year's winner never claimed his price, my suspicions being that he didn't trust banker's drafts from obscure countries like the United King of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
So this year the price has not only been increased in total monetary value, but it is issued in CASH. That's right, the winner will get LL 25,000 (TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND LEBANESE POUNDS), a reliable currency issued by a known entity*, unlike the RBS Group.
So get your VT220 client out, telnet to CHIMPY.SAMPSA.COM, and log in as TETRIS.
We will be posting more or less frequent updates about the state of play.
* No seriously, the Lebanese Pound is dollar-pegged and hasn't been devalued for like ever. Even during the July War it didn't drop.

Yeah, I saw it too. It stopped when I started thinking about doing
something about it. As a part of that thinking, I restarted
the bridge
at my end to see some information. For some reason that got
things in
order. Possible some pollution of the hop cache in my
bridge? I don't
know, and I can't examine it after the restart. Oh well.
We'll see if
it reappears, or if someone else knows of some reason for it...
Well, it has continued every 15 seconds for more than a day.
I've turned off the bridge to Steve Davidson for now. Steve,
please contact me.
Nothing has changed here - I have not been around to play. In any event
I have stopped, and rebooted the bridge and, SG1:: is rebooting - just
in case.

If it is following the DECnet standards, it should send out a System ID hello once per 10mins which should help you identifying the originator and its physical MAC address.

Ok. More funny stuff, while I'm at it. Sampsa seem to like to have
create mac addresses in general as well, but that is ok. But the one
above is maybe less well choosen.

Hello!
It certainly could be. After all I've got nothing working there. What
is the nature of the problem?

.
That's a SysID message (MOP Console is for SysID, Request Counters, etc.) And packet code 07 (byte at offset 16) is Sysid.
The source address is clearly a bug. From the packet capture it looks like a VMS system -- amazing that VMS would screw up that badly.
