April Lists

[MrWhereItsAt]

Yeah that would be the only way to do it and get all the posts made.

And those Aussies - when 5pm rolls around they stop dead - they seem to take work very seriously in the day, but there is very little conception of after-hours work to get things finished. Unlike NZ, where we just work whatever hours until the work is done. If we have to work late beacuse we had an extra long game of touch rugby at lunchtime then sobeit.

Wow, my projection has jumped from 2013 to 2007!

And I made it from 2007 to 2005... though my PPD has dropped for the last month

I'm hoping to get to deity before my birthday (and before Spikie/Jamski). I need all the luck I can get for that.

[civman2000]

Why am I not on the list? By my calculations I'm set to be a deity by around April 2008 (though it probably won't happen because my posting rate has dropped drastically in the past year).

I know exactly what you mean. Its trite. Its why I don't post in most spamcount forums, don't have an enormous post count rate, but have a reputation for the occasionally refined spam and its wholesome derivatives.

Some spam threads make me literally

Sorry to DrSpike, but his challenge is one such event I refuse to participate in - its a repetitive joke that I just don't find holding my interest. These lists are getting to that point too. If people want to do them, I have nothing against it, but I think do think them loathsome. Sorry guys.

Yeah, i really hate posts that are there just to increase in post count.





Seriously. Jamski contributes a great deal substantively - anyone here who is trying to learn the Infinity Engine games can attest to that.

Of course he is a big participant in the forum games.

Interestingly many if not almost all of the participants in the forum games are also heavy participants in A/C. especially in threads like this.

It's a short walk from the OG forum.

My estimated deity date jumped from 2017 to 2080.

Odd, considering I've posted more in the past month than in previous months.

Ditto here, mine was something like 2010 and it jumped to 2026, and I've posted quite a lot in the past month compared to my recent months here.

There was an advertisement for the SMAC section of the site in one of the OtherGames threads, which got a few of us OG-ers to join SMAC as well.

Ok, ok, I'll take a +2, but that is really it for this thread.

I am of the belief that a huge postcount is not a matter of pride, nor is it a matter of shame.

......

The question is : Is posting a lot something to be rewarded with a fancy title?

Feeling the pressure of keeping up the ppd, aren't you? And keep drinking 20 plus kegs of xenorums per day at the rec commons is kind of boring too if you ask me.

But seriously, I agree with you. Posting for fun is nice, and fun ( ) but posting for the sake of posting is not that much fun unless you are tass or his husband. Honestly I feel that these stat threads are more fun than the drinking fest at the rec commons. At least there's something new here.

[DrSpike]

Hehe spot on HongHu........some far more shameless spam is in those threads than here.

[Rasputin]

oki have been biting my tongue but can hold it no longer...

as a few have added here there are a number of threads at poly that are solely and wholly for PC increasing .. the drinking thread at rec forums is a prime example, and there have been a few others that are even worse, one titles. Doh!! and another titled Delete This, are prime examples of Spam +1 posts. And who do we find at these threads posting the most +1 +2 +3 s ???

Good question!!! it is Jamski !!!! i dont care about spam, i think it is fun (obviously) and i dont differntiate between spam, meta spam , psydo spam or whatever....

it is still the same, to make an accusation that because i dont bother trying to hide my attempts at post coutn increases makes it worse than others is jsut blatant hypocrasy....

I do these lists because i think they fun to see, also very fun to see peoples posts change after each of thethreads...

my posts per day usually remain about the same , which is why on avarage i achieve consistently high numbers, others, when they see they no longer number one appear to increas their posting for a period, which is why i do the mid month ppd updates.

Now as to how the numbers are calcualted, i have stated before in the toher threads , but i guess i should put the explanation in each thread, i maintain a record of each months posts and then copy and paste from the members pages the latest figures...

only the first months lists were based on your average psots as shown at poly. now they are shown as your last months average from the last list till the current one.

i can also do one based on average over last 3 months, but most seem to be more accuarate based on the monthly one.

as for any errors it is usally based on the fact that i do the copying and pasting late at night at work and get a bit tired, so sometimesi paste into wrong spreadhsheet cell.

i will attempt to make some double checks next time to prevetnn asny further errors.

and yes one day i will remove that silly little icon from his name in the list.....



hope this goes to show that i can when i feel like post a long post like everyone else , but in relaity it is still only done to get +1 and continuie on my merry way.....

ah, I see, that would explain why some peoples' are infintesimally small
