Thanks to all the miners who participated in our initiative to celebrate the second anniversary of LitecoinPool.org! As promised, 10 winners have been drawn, and their messages have been engraved in the block chain. Here they are:

All 15 messages are now permanently engraved in the Litecoin block chain, and stored on every computer running the official Litecoin client!
The messages have been prefixed with the string /LP^2/, so on Linux you can display them with the following one-liner:
grep -ao /LP^2/.\*/ ~/.litecoin/blocks/blk00011.dat
Alternatively, you can use an online block explorer to display a hex-encoded version of each message. Click on the first transaction of the block, then on the “Raw transaction” link: the message is located in the “raw_scriptSig” field. You can use a tool to convert the hexadecimal string to ASCII text.
