The first buzz on this hive takes the crown. Number 3 of 8 on the board.
That counts. The hive redraws every hour, so a bigger tile can take up to an hour to show; your mark is there now.
Taken back. That buzz is gone and you have it again.
That one stands. A buzz can be taken back for thirty seconds after it is cast, and only by the browser that cast it. Nothing was changed.
You already buzzed that one, on this browser. It did not spend a buzz.
That is every buzz you have on this date today, so that one did not count. It is still a good story to have picked.
Not yet. A date takes buzzes from the day itself, and this one has not arrived.
This hive has sealed and is permanent now. That buzz arrived after midnight and was not counted.
That story was later shown false. It keeps its place on the hive and takes no buzzes.
That did not save, and it was this end rather than yours. The date is fine. Try it again.
That one is not on this hive yet, so there was nothing to buzz. Nothing was spent.
Nothing filed for November 2 says that. Nothing was spent. On today's hive you can suggest it: search for it in the box under the board.
Those words are too common to search on. Try a name, a place or what happened. Nothing was spent.
The hive could not be searched just now: either it has sealed, or this end could not reach it. Nothing was spent. Try it again.
Stung. That was your one sting today. Three stings put a story on trial, and the hive decides at the next redraw.
You already stung that one, on this browser. Nothing was spent.
You buzzed that one. A story gets your buzz or your sting, never both. Pick a side.
That is your one sting for today. It comes back tomorrow.
This one just survived a trial. Stings bounce off it for six hours. Nothing was spent.
Buried by the hive. Nothing moves it now, and nothing was spent.
Sting taken back. You have it again.
Claimed Somebody said it and nobody has confirmed it. A tier is not a verdict.
Nobody has backed it yet. Submitted November 2, 2026 at 1:01 PM EST. Placed November 2, 2026 at 1:02 PM EST.
On the hive, 6 by 6 modules at column 0, row 5.
