I used nak to pull down all of the events on a relay from a particular npub, then I broke it up into 100-event chunks, published a kind 05 for each of those chunks, and then broadcasted the kind 05 to the whole list. 

 Some clients have a local relay so the notes might still show up for you until you clear the cache. You can use nak to verify if other relays are still serving the events. 

 I did it in batches with a custom script I wrote. I can check if I saved the script when I get home. 

 I used Blastr to publish the delete events. Not sure if Mutiny’s Blastr relay is still up. I deleted over 10k events like this. 

 He had a delete script, too, that ran on nostr-tool, but it doesn't work right now.

I can just download the full nostr.watch API list, like he did and run through it. Didn't want to do that, if I can avoid it, as it spams everyone's relays, but oh well. 

 I did mine in batches of 256, so I sent fewer than 50 queries to each relay. That shouldn’t bother relays. If it does, we have a bigger problem. 

Here’s my script if you want to compare it to what you wrote.

 Just upped it to 1000 per batch. Heh. YOLO, baby. 

 I did 256 cause I think some relays have that cap on event tags or at least they used to 

 I think everyone upped it because of follows. 😅  

 That name! 🤣  

 That was the hashtag I used for the nukening of my old profile and notes. I think @liminal was the only one that noticed me do this. 😂 

 Here's how I get around using blastr. I looked where he gets the relay list from. He just uses the API from Nostr.Watch.

```
// download a list of active relays
$url = "https://api.nostr.watch/v1/online";    
$page = file_get_contents($url);
$requestedRelays = json_decode($page, true);
sort($requestedRelays);
``` 

 From the results, it looks like some of the relays are rejecting notes from npubs without a valid NIP-05. 

 It’s possible they don’t have the note to delete then. If they do, just add a nip-05 on the npub. Once you’re done deleting the notes, you can remove the nip-05 or just nuke the kind 0. 

 They probably don't have it, since I never had a NIP-05 on that npub and haven't used it in half a year. 

 Just thought it was interesting that not having a NIP-05 might prevent you from persistently deleting your own events.
