The rules

How it works

  1. 01

    One page, one owner

    Whoever holds the page owns all of it. Their name, their link, their avatar, in front of every visitor on Earth. There is no second slot.

  2. 02

    Every day starts at $1

    At midnight UTC the page goes empty and the price falls back to $1. The first taker of the day pays $1. Yes, one dollar. The trick is staying.

  3. 03

    Anyone can take it, instantly

    Beat the current owner by at least $1 and the page flips to you the moment the payment clears. Pay more if you want to make the next takeover hurt. No auction, no waiting, no mercy.

  4. 04

    You bought time, not the day

    Getting dethroned is not a loss. You held today for 3h 12m, and that is exactly what you paid for. All payments are final. The hours are yours forever, and so is the calendar entry.

  5. 05

    Ties go to the fast

    If someone grabs the page while your payment is in flight, your money comes straight back, automatically and in full. Nobody ever pays for a takeover that did not happen.

  6. 06

    Midnight is the buzzer

    Whoever holds the page at 23:59:59 UTC goes into the calendar as that day's final owner. Forever. That page never changes again. Some people plan their whole takeover around this. We respect it.
