Except, in the state that the exploit is in, it's hard to setup for a "consumer." It's also partially dangerous since the user has to modify their nand (manually, as the exploit is contained in the whitelist which is copyrighted, or potentially an xdelta patch could be used for distributing patches early on).
And (I'm 90% sure I'm wrong about this) if the whitelist ends up corrupted then the DSi might brick. The devs wouldn't want to release a buggy product without rigorous testing to make sure it works properly (see: OTPless A9LH).
Just to make sure on Any other version than 1.4.0 it will brick, but on 1.4.0 Nintendo forgot to re enable the RSA verification of the whitelist so we can flash a crafted one.

Wasn't too difficult overall. Having Sudoku already installed with hax made it 10x easier.

You guys can start requesting to be added to the site if you like - I'm trying to rewrite it to have a database and I have to learn a lot of stuff (spring boot, JPA, and mysql). I should get it finished tomorrow. If I didn't have to learn then it probably would have only taken a few hours!

It previously just had an array of everyone's names and was hardcoded to add people to the array when it restarted. So the way I had it before won't work, because it gets restarted like one a day so if I try to add people to the array while the site is running it will just forget them when it restarts itself - and I was hoping to delegate responsibility to someone else to add people so I can't be hard coding it. A database means it won't forget when it is restarted. Hope that made sense.

Well, getting added would be pretty neat. I joined the hacking scene way too late for B9S day 1, so I might as well join the Hiya Day 1 squad.

I installed Hiya before it was officially released ;)
