Were the admins shitposting or did TotesMessenger break something?

My guess is that the per-subreddit karma was breaking the site in ways the admins weren't intending so they did that and froze the bot's karma
(karma can be frozen on accounts to prevent them from overloading the site)

My guess is it might be related to Lorenz attractor principles (predictable order in chaos). The point I think that may relate it to the Pi phenomenon in the reddit examples is that Lorenz applications are always based on circular phenomenon. The butterfly is generated by pendular motion that by definition only occurs as an arc; the Lorenz equations came from studying convective flow of heat, which relies on the physics of angular motion (curved motion, as opposed to linear); the Lorenz equations are used to make weather cycles more predictable and the playing field of all weather occurs on a single blue sphere, Earth. So, maybe applying Lorenz to any system of chaos will reveal its fundamental circle, or Pi.
