  Didn't see that when I posted. Usually HN catches dupes, but I posted this on mobile on the go. My bad.

    It's not on you. :) HN ought to match on dupes like this.

      The software allows resubmissions of stories that didn't get significant attention after enough time has past and there's no longer any hope for them. It does this so that those stories have more than one chance, which is often needed before they catch on. Sorry that it wasn't yours that did! Community members have analyzed the submission data to see if there's any way for submitters to do better than random here and it seems like there isn't.
