OFFICIAL CATALOGUE OF RARE and EXOTIC BUTTON PRESSERS
NEW: GOOGLE DOCS with ALL NAMES https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1v7RV0R9Q133W2QAJSAEqAFrf5v-ACukyQ4py-iWl0jQ/htmlview?sle=true
the doc most likely will replace this thread as the main catalogue
if you are interested in helping out, look here
Here, you can find proof that the timer is decreasing, and the few users with impeccable timing who managed to press it. Please comment below if you know of an addition to this list!
USE THIS TO FIND HOW LOW THE TIMER HAS ACTUALLY BEEN
HOW TO FIND YOUR NUMBER
After pressing the button, simply refresh the /r/thebutton and look to the righthand sidebar. The dot next to your name will reveal what time you pressed it at! I don't take screenshots as proof!! (thanks to /u/michiforjoy for the suggestion)

KEEP IN MIND
Those who are rare now may become as common as the rest of us. When 10 users of one number have been located, I will stop adding those of that number to the list. Look at the Google Doc for the complete catalogue.
If the law catch me in the act and i happen to die 2day, please contact any of the other contributors for issues about editing. Like some other redditors, we lie in bed with our eyes shut for a third of the day, but don't fret, we'll update when we can!
Please comment and/or link to a post to add a user to this list. Thank you for your support!

I will no longer be accepting 58s entries! Congratulations to the first 10, may you forever be immortalized in the catalogue as an exotic rarity in your time.

u/bensroommate 59s Apr 02 '15
The list is now fully updated! With the arrival of two more 58s, I will soon be closing off the 58s section. I will wait until a second 57s and a fifth 58s user before closing it off though, as 58s still seem to be of extreme rarity.

I can't fully tell what happened at the moment, but it seems like there was a glitch on reddit's end that allowed a dozen odd users to get sub-56s times. They have all been marked as cheaters by reddit, and I will follow in suit until that is changed.

So far, 60s, 59s, 58s, and 57s all appear to be the same hue of purple. Perhaps we will begin seeing a change in increments of 10s!

I will stop it when there are 5 58s users found. There are still only 2 58s users known, even if the timer has been seen to go lower than 58.

Request: Refer to a person's time of button press as their 'Butt Rank'. A person with a Butt Rank of 58 is of a higher rank than a person of Butt Rank 59 in the soon to be post-countdown world. A non button presser is a Butt Virgin (obviously).

u/Ashuvain non presser Apr 01 '15
Notice: If you are on wireless internet, do not click when the timer seems to be low. Once the number of remaining button clicks has diminished a lot it will be safe but right now odds are it's just internet lag, because there are on average dozens of clicks per second.

Nah … must have been lag or a dropped connection. There's >10 clicks per second, I doubt it even drops below 59.5 — though that doesn't explain how a few people managed to get their sub 59 flair …
Edit: It seems lots of people saw it, so probably a server-side issue. No flair to be seen, so far, though.

The thing I think is super interesting is that this list appears to be ruling behavior in clicking. You really only ever see the counter get down to the next slot on the wall of fame before tons of clicks all register at once trying to nail a spot.
I would love to know how this would play out if there was no "wall of fame" or if it was limited to only one person per category!

I've got a 56 that happened during the glitch. Not knowing what was going on, I actually watched the thing tick down to 0.xx and clicked, but it gave me 56. Apparently I've now got the 'cheater' flair which sucks. Not a very accurate title. Dunno if this qualifies me for your glitch section or not. Feel free to ignore if not.
I'd rather have a non-presser flair than this shit. :/
Edit: ...but at least I guess it's from some noteworthy point in button history.

Hello! If you saw this comment, you probably care somewhat about this little scheme of Reddit's! It is a lot for one guy to handle recording. Would you like to help edit the Google Doc? Please send me a PM if you are interested. Any timezones are welcome, but I will soon be asleep for the next 8 or so hours, and because Google SleepDocs has not been released yet, someone who is awake during this time would be a great help. Thank you!
