Previously listed - plasticene

Hey, all right! (Sorry about that, plasticene.)

I have mixed feelings on this momentous occasion. I never saw the appeal or virtue in being considered one of the most verbose posters. I'd rather be thought of as having a high signal to noise ratio. Cracking the top 100 makes me think maybe I'm slipping in that regard.

On the other hand, only the top 100 have their activity tracked closely enough for people to notice their absence. It's nice to know that now if I ever disappear, someone here might take notice and post, "Whatever happened to TheConfessor? Did someone piss him off? I wonder if he died or got a life or something."

But that will only happen if LB doesn't die first. And I think I'll need to rise a few more spots before I'm assured of Bored immortality.

In all seriousness, I wouldn't hang out here if I didn't enjoy most of it. Everyone is cool in their own way. I think it's natural that I tend to relate more to the dozens of you whom I've actually met in person, but I look forward to increasing that number in the years ahead.

Or maybe he's busy farming.

I'm thirsty...

What Ed said. Plus, I have to break the tie with the tennisdunde.

Congratulations on finally making the Hot 100, Ed!

... what?! How the hell did Fanny pass me?!

Oh wait... I know why. This is one week that I haven't been gratuitous.

I think TheGlowingPotato would dispute that, Ed!

Ahem, if you'll recall, I was ahead of you from forever until we both made the Hot 100. I specifically slowed down my posting and then took over a month's sabbatical to let you build up a lead.

Can I help it if there's not enough Artificial Gratuity to help keep you there?

Did somebody call me while I was out?

How many times do I have to say it? If I don't pick up, leave a message!

I can't wait until we get to 84,900...

Maybe twice.

If I don't pick up, leave a message!

There, that ought to do it.

Ace can't be that far ahead of me can he?

Welcome to the club, Ed! WTG, Fan and those other green people.

Wow! And I didn't think I was being particularly chatty this week!

Congrats to the other greenies!

It has a lot to do with what those ahead of you don't post.

If you're close to a chatty poster, you're must less likely to move in the rankings.

Is that the new drink at Starbucks?

Congratulations to mrkelley, BobJuch, christie, ulysses Spock, Fanny and Confessor!

Thanks as always for doing this, LB.



At first I tought that it might be a problem on my side, and I tried changing all the wireless setting, and rebooting the little beast a number of times, but nothing works. Nabazoux blinks orange ( not a good sign ) and then stops.

What happened to plasticene? I miss him.

Yes, thank you for doing this. I know that you overcame great adversity to compile the list this week.

It also has a lot to do with how close certain groups of posters are together.

The Jai-Buff-takinover grouping is only a handful of posts apart....

Yes, lack of Pepsi can derail any project...

When the going gets tough, the tough get compiling!

I think lb might be adjusting the flood control settings before then.
