Additionally, note the somewhat jokey tone of the final sentence, “I hope to see you in the dawn of tomorrow, with our honor still intact”. Obviously, someone pressing the button wouldn’t damage the honor or reputation of Less Wrong and so it seemed to indicate that this was just a bit of fun..
Haha, I take this sentence like 90%-100% seriously. Don’t you think you lost a little honor in the process? Wouldn’t it be something if a decade down the line LessWrong could say “we’ve played this game for X years, including at least Y users every time and Z users total, and no one has ever entered their launch codes?

But alas...
“Don’t you think you lost a little honor in the process?”—Of course, but some people take this way too seriously.
