Bellingcat Challenge #33 “Creating Community”

In May 2020, Bellingcat created its Discord server. The announcement, seen above, was posted later that same day.

Your task is to determine how many minutes passed between the server’s creation and the official annoucement on Twitter (answer format: 87).

Solution

To find the Discord server’s creation time, I searched for terms such as "discord server start date". After changing the relevant Discord setting, I obtained the Bellingcat server ID: 709752884257882135. Decoding this ID shows that the server was created on May 12, 2020, at 10:04:34 PM JST.

Searching X for the official announcement led to Bellingcat’s post, published on May 12, 2020, at 11:12 PM JST.

The difference between 10:04 PM and 11:12 PM is 68 minutes.
