Since I signed up on GitHub I was searching for this bug: to "draw" things on others contributions graphs. And finally I found a trick. I cannot tell you exactly how it works, but the docs are very clear, you will get it: https://help.github.com/articles/why-are-my-contributions-no...
I disclosed this trick to the security team, but they said it's a low priority bug and I cannot get a reward for it (https://bounty.github.com/).
So, I thought: if I cannot get money for this discover, I will get some popularity. And I "vandalized" some contributions graphs:
- https://github.com/addyosmani - https://github.com/vim-scripts - https://twitter.com/IonicaBizau/status/594024920826380288
Then I shown the GitHub Security team the mess I did. They told me not to do that again since this is a violation of the GitHub's terms. I kept that in mind and didn't repeat it.
On the other side, Addy Osmani really liked this:

And the popularity came as well: new followers and stars!
Now, since you know everything, if you want to give me a reward, here is a Paypal donation url: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_b...
Thanks! :-)
