Thanks.

For Everything.

I Mean It.

Congrats on becoming the 35th member of the 10,000 post club! Just over 11 months since HoltDad became the last BB to enter the 10K club in late April 2007.

We shouldn't have to wait as long for our next 5 digit poster with the way PSM's rocketing up the charts. It's interesting, though, that our next 2 BB's who will likely get to 10K were not even in the Top 50 11 months ago when HD became the 34th with 10K posts.....

Congratulations, fellow slacker!

Can ask I ask how many posts I will need to hit 10,000?

I'll let you know when you get a week's worth of posts away...... so, at about 9500 or so....

You are welcome.

really

Thank you as well.

I mean it.

Congrats!

Now...if only I hadn't spent that year or so at the GC.

There can't be that many people left who have been continuously registered since the original ABC-Go BAM site opened in 1999.

Who is still here that was an original?

Sep 1999 for me...although I didn't make a post until November, IIRC.

How original is original? I didn't discover that board until around November 1999, but I think it took me a couple of months to post, because posting seemed scary back then.

LB once figured out some old-timers' approximate registration dates based upon their GO numbers, although that was somewhat skewed by those who registered on ESPN even earlier, IIRC.

I don't understand any of this anyway. I don't have a number in parentheses
after my name, and LB explained it nicely. Of course, I don't understand the explanation.

Oh well, I'm holding my own, smack in the middle of the 1st 100. I'm kinda happy there. Looks like I'm not gonna move much anytime soon.

He's comparing our rankings this week with our rankings from exactly five years ago (which is the number in parentheses). You don't have a number in parentheses because you were entirely unranked five years ago (meaning you had fewer than 300 total posts back then). You've come all that way out of nowhere in five short years!

Well then, woo hoo! Thanks, Marley.

I posted this last July.....


------------------------------------

Below is a list I compiled of all BB's for who I was able to find an author number for. Pretty much anyone who posted during the last half of the Love Boat, who was also in the expanded rankings, should be included. Also, any random BB's from the old days who I happened to copy a number down for (With WTVT® and no cut & paste, I had to stash some author numbers to quickly pull up lists of posts by an author) will be here. In addition, I trolled through the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine to find every link to an author number I could find (It had a strange fascination with Couch_Potato24 for some reason, though....), and was able to find a treasure trove of numbers for Old & New Class BB's. There should be few omissions of major players here, but there are undoubtably some not represented here (Perhaps most notably, wild bill, whose # I could not find anywhere). In addition, I included a few notable MM's as well as a few other "infamous" players in history who I could find (But not Couchie for some reason, though I had many chances to copy his number down).

There are few author numbers after the destruction of the old Go format in June 2004 for a few reasons. First off, none of the current Bored links use an author number, so it's impossible to determine one from the Bored as it was on the previous two incarnations of the Bored. Second, sometime in late '04 or early '05, Go changed its entire system of awarding author numbers, and the numbers seem to go from the late 66,000,000's straight to the 100,000,000's, so the continuity's gone. The only current way I know of to determine an author number of an unknown handle is via an ESPN contest (I used the entrants in the NCAA Tourney challenge). I also used the ESPN profiles feature to accurately determine month of resistration (It's amazing some of the handles that no longer "exist" according to the system)...

For BB's who had multiple regular handles, I have included both, but a note on the most recent one pointing towards the original handle.

Enjoy!

Thanks as always for doing this, LB.

No way I'm gonna quibble with LB's data . . . well, I quibbled with him about whether Katie Knudsen punched hubby, and since I was right about that, onward!

I know I started posting in March because my first three or four posts were about the NCAA basketball tournament. One guy was plopped down on his couch with icy Coronas next to him and only basketball in front of him, and I replied to that. I made a cyberbet with Jayhawker (I think) -- somebody from Kansas, anyway.

Thanks, lb. Seeing that list was like looking at old photos in a scrapbook.

This is a good group!

The old go board locked me out of go mail...or whatever that was we used to have....spam central, that's for sure - with my kh47 handle. I had to re-register with GO using another handle to even be able to log in after that happened.

I appreciate your hard work as well, lb. I don't know how you do it.
Thanks!

I thought I was earlier than that- guess not.

Maybe I was reading w/o registering for a while.

My mom has been trying to figure out what year she was diagnosed with breat cancer. I know it was the January before I started posting here. I will now tell her it was 2001.

I'll tell her lb said so.

No quibble here. You did start posting in March 2000, but you registered the SportsFan68 handle the year before that for something else....

lb13

I looked at all of the names of people who frightened me and that I made them the reason I wouldn't/couldn't register and post.

Makes me laugh now.

Also has me see people in other parts of my life who I let be the reason for what I do and what I say and when. That is so bogus.

I will be stepping up in the areas I see.

I remember coming to the Bored in February 2000 because of my first successful callback. I must not have registered, however, or else I used a different handle (though I've never used anything other than some variation of "earendel" on message boards).

MRK--You've always been kind about my sitch with Lil' Buff and someone I've really relied on when I've needed a sounding board (NPI) about schools, teachers and stuff.

Thank YOU.
