    I looked up this IP on ipspotting.com (which Slashdot did a story on a few days ago) and got this:

    Talking of invalid IP addresses, i've not found one to beat 251.251.223.223 yet :)

    For anyone that doesn't immediatly recognise this as invalid, IANA have 240.0.0.0/4 reserved

    Ok, I found a way to get a score of 72.
    I'm sure that more is possible. Anyone care to try?

    The four corners are not part of the bitmap. So, for A.B.C.D, the image is

    -AAAA-
    AAAABB
    BBBBBB
    CCCCCC
    CCDDDD
    -DDDD-
    I still haven't managed to create anything that it recognizes...
    Nor have I. But, here is a square, with the corners cut off:
    http://www.ipspotting.com/?IP=248.97.134.31

    For the poker, it turns your IP into a binary, with the most significicant digit first. It throws away the last two bits. Then it takes the 30 bits, and separates them into 5 sets of 6 bits. For each card, the first 2 bits determine suit, and the other for bits determine rank.
    Ace is 0000.
    2 is 0001.
    3 is 0010.
    4 is 0011.
    etc.

    So, the original IP separated this way looks like:

    xx.oo.oo.xx
    oo.oo.xx.oo
    oo.xx.oo.oo
    xx.oo.oo.--
    The xx is for suit, oooo is for rank, and -- is thrown out.

    Royal flush:
