Steiner triple system hitting-time conjecture

Let n1,3(mod6)n\equiv 1,3 \pmod 6, and let T1,T2,T_1,T_2,\ldots be a uniformly random ordering of the triples in ([n]3)\binom{[n]}{3}. Steiner triple system hitting-time conjecture. With high probability, the first prefix T1,,TkT_1,\ldots,T_k that covers every 22-edge at least once contains a Steiner triple system. The conjecture is the corresponding hitting-time version of the proposed sharp threshold and is presented by the source as an open direction.
