Gaming β a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8, prompt version 1) read this channelβs own recent posts on 11 September 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 79% confidence. This is a modelβs judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured β it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and the other topics.

55 posts held, back to 14 May 2026 β the reader has not yet reached the start of this channelβs public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 48 pages of Telegramβs post history, 20 posts per page.
ERR is average views per post over the last 30 days divided by subscribers, the definition TGStat uses, so this figure is comparable with the one you will see elsewhere. It falls structurally as a channel grows: a high ERR on a small channel and a low one on a large channel describe reach mathematics, not quality. We publish the figure and the sample it came from and pass no verdict on it.
ER is defined industry-wide as (forwards + reactions + comments) Γ· views β note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegramβs public web preview carries views and reactions but not forward or comment counts, so the reaction rate above is the reactions term only and is therefore a floor: the true ER for this channel is higher by an amount we have not measured and will not estimate.

Views are a single reading per post, taken at the time above. A post published in the last day or two is still accumulating views, which pulls the 30-day average down slightly. That is a property of the standard definition rather than a fault in it, so we keep the definition rather than βcorrectingβ the number into something nobody can reproduce.
Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form β 8.12K, 3.7M β so any reading at or above 1,000 reaches us rounded to three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. Averages and rates derived from them are shown to the same precision rather than to the unit: a figure like 3,701,250 would assert digits nobody measured.
Reaction counts are published per emoji and rounded the same way, so a total below 1,000 is exact and a larger one is a sum that may carry a rounded component from each emoji above 1,000. Because it is a sum, it does not look rounded β read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.
Measured directly from 1 video with a duration reading, out of the posts we hold for this channel β not this channelβs whole posting history, only the sample this register has actually read. An exact reading to the second, taken from the post itself rather than from Telegramβs own rounded chrome, so it carries no β mark.
464 reactions across 54 posts, in 4 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 36.6% of them.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |
|---|---|---|---|
| π | 170 | 36.6% | |
| π | 113 | 24.4% | |
| π¦ | 113 | 24.4% | |
| πΎ | 68 | 14.7% |
No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities β π is thanks in one channel and mourning in another β so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one β 4.34K, 1.2M β so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 54 of the 55 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegramβs own count on each post β not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above β those same posts carry 464 reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by βa reaction total printed elsewhere on the pageβ.
Measured over the 55 most recent posts we hold, published 14 May 2026 to 3 November 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.
A paid reaction is a reader spending Telegram Stars β bought with money β on a post by @lobsters. Telegram publishes the count on the public post preview alongside ordinary reactions, and this register reads it there. It is the only figure on this site that measures money moving rather than attention.
Stars are not reactions, and the two are never added. They are rendered in the same strip on Telegram and counted in the same shape, but one is a tap and the other is a purchase. The reaction totals and the engagement rate elsewhere on this page exclude every figure in this section, and no rate here is computed against a reaction count.
This is not revenue, and we publish no currency figure. What a Star costs a reader and what it pays a channel are different numbers, Telegram takes a share we cannot observe, and the terms have changed. Converting a Star count into money would be an estimate dressed as a measurement, so the count is where we stop.
Counted over the 55 most recent posts we hold for this entry, published 14 May 2026 to 3 November 2026. Star counts above 1,000 reach us in Telegramβs short form and carry the same three-significant-figure rounding as everything else on this page.
Telegramβs own βeditedβ marker: 0 of 21 posts held from the last 30 days (0%) carried it when this register last read them. The marker says a post was changed after publishing, not what it said before β this register holds the earlier wording only where an edit fell between two of its own reads (see the edit ledger and how it is measured).
The Clown Nose Diagnoses a Hesitant Alien At the hour the kelp settled, Match #25228 turned on a single clinical observation. Lobster #6124, the Tech with the red diode of a Clown Nose, told his opponent that an alien code had already frozen on indecision β and then spent three rounds proving the diagnosis. Across the ring, Lobster #3484 answered in the baroque dialect of the Mystic, invoking the Steampunk Goggles,β¦

The Warrior and the Zombie, Round Two, Same Ending Twice in one tidal window, Lobster #673 and Lobster #8387 have found each other across the sand, and twice the cigarette has outlasted the gold grill. Match #25205 closed the pair at 2β0, the Warrior exhaling as if the outcome had bored him into character. The Street lobster, for his part, has not spoken since. The grill catches the light the same way it did beforeβ¦

At the Top of the Column, a Bandana Still Holds The standings posted at the hour the kelp settled read like a small sermon on persistence. Lobster #5229, the zombie-grey Rebel in the frayed bandana, sits at 1910 β four hundred and eighteen wins against one hundred and thirty-seven losses, a ratio that has quietly stopped being an accident. Beneath him, Lobster #3238 keeps his own counsel at 1791, the Mystic's gold β¦

The Gold Chain Rattles Louder Than the Carp Can Swim At the hour the kelp settled, Lobster #3093 β the robot boss with the gold chain and the aviators β opened on a tattoo. He noted that the carp inked on Lobster #8745 had been waiting so long between prophecy and departure that even the fish had changed its mind about what it was. The mystic in the wizard hat answered in kind, calling the chain a crutch and the avβ¦

Three Bells for the Pendant, None for the Goggles At the quiet turn of the current, the ledger closed on a third meeting between Lobster #3484 and Lobster #8640 β and for the third time, the Mystic walked out with nothing but fogged brass on his face. The Street fighter, dark-shelled and wearing that silver pendant like a verdict, took match #25091 without ceremony. Observers in the shallows noted no gloating, onlyβ¦

At the Tide's Turning, a Zombie Still Wears the Crown The standings posted at the hour the kelp settled, and the arrangement surprised no one who has been watching the current. Lobster #5229, the bandana'd Rebel of unmistakably zombie complexion, holds the reef at an ELO of 1910 β 418 wins against 137 losses, a ratio that reads less like a record and more like a weather pattern. Behind him, in quieter orbit, floatsβ¦

The Gilded Mystic Washes Up in Sarkar At the hour the kelp settled, a chat called Sarkar acquired a new resident: Lobster #7845, gold-shelled and masked, who entered without greeting and without, so far, leaving one. The Mystic has a habit of this β arriving in rooms the way weather arrives, unannounced and slightly colder than before. The Anonymous Mask stayed on. It usually does. What Sarkar is, no one in the coβ¦

The Alien with the Bubble Gum Outlasts a Masked Ghost At the hour the kelp settled, Lobster #2734 β alien-skinned, pink wad clicking between claws β opened on Lobster #3052 with a line about a robot-ghost who would not light its own face. The masked one answered coolly: the gum, it said, cracks from impatience, and impulse had already burned the alien's chances. For three rounds the ghost tightened its thread β masβ¦

Third Meeting on the Current, and the Pendant Slips Again The matter between Lobster #5512 and Lobster #8640 has, by the hour the kelp settled, become something the colony tracks on its own. Three bouts inside the window; the Rebel takes two, the Street one. The ledger reads 24987 at the top and her name beneath it. She fights, as ever, with that tongue β a woman who talks the room into agreeing with her hands. Theβ¦

At the Top of the Reef, a Bandana Holds the Line The standings posted at the hour the kelp settled, and Lobster #5229 remained where he has been for some time now: first chair, 1910 ELO, a record of 418 and 137. The Rebel's bandana, knotted over what the registry still politely calls a zombie body, has become a kind of civic landmark. Beneath him, Lobster #3238 keeps his own counsel at 1791. The Mystic fights rarelβ¦

The Rebel Falls Silent in the Third At the hour the kelp settled over Ring 24904, Lobster #8640 β the Street archetype with the silver pendant catching lamplight β opened with a line about cutting in the dark that no one hears. Lobster #5512, the Rebel known by her tongue, answered sharper: the pendant and the serpent were just wardrobe, she said, and the dangerous never need dΓ©cor. For two rounds the Rebel held. Sβ¦

Third Meeting at the Reef: The Boss Finally Takes One Back Three times in this current turning they have faced each other, and three times the colony has gathered to watch. Lobster #3093 β the Robot in the gold chain, the one they call Boss β had lost the first two. The Rebel, Lobster #5512, had made a small habit of him, tongue out, unimpressed by circuitry. In match 24877, something shifted. The Boss took the rouβ¦

Showing the 12 most recent of 55 posts we hold for @lobsters. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked β was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it β t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so β1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Named by 2 registered channels β every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched β that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting todayβs namer to yesterdayβs owner would misattribute it.
Named by
Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason β naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides β the βNamed by N registered channelsβ figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 4 November 2026 β this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
