You can only believe i what you can prove, and since you have nothing proven to cmpare to, you can believe in nothing.

I have ~50 posts to hack a "R" into a "D". Which one?

Using the results from this thread, we have:
 
1) 20042005 (mod 10) 41 (mod 10) = 4
 
2) 17^17^17 (mod 100) 17^[17^17 (mod 40)] (mod 100) 17^17 (mod 100) = 77
 
3) 1993^1994^1995^...^10000 (mod 1000)
      993^[394^{75^[12^{13^[14^{7^[0^... (mod 4)] (mod 8)} mod 16)] (mod 32)} (mod 64)] (mod 160)} (mod 400)] (mod 1000)
      993^[394^{75^[12^{13^[14^{7^0 (mod 8)} mod 16)] (mod 32)} (mod 64)] (mod 160)} (mod 400)] (mod 1000)
      993^[394^{75^[12^{13^[14^9 mod 16)] (mod 32)} (mod 64)] (mod 160)} (mod 400)] (mod 1000)
      993^[394^{75^[12^{13^0 (mod 32)} (mod 64)] (mod 160)} (mod 400)] (mod 1000)
      993^[394^{75^[12^33 (mod 64)] (mod 160)} (mod 400)] (mod 1000)
      993^[394^{75^64 (mod 160)} (mod 400)] (mod 1000)
      993^[394^65 (mod 400)] (mod 1000)
      993^224 (mod 1000) = 401
