No announcement yet.
Markg has 4.70635559131134352373290426387772 times as many posts as Danq!
Time for DanQ do do some serious spamming. I heard that posting oneliners on all topics were pretty effective...
In fact: How can we respect DanQ at all when he doesn't have more posts? As we all know, post count is directly proportional to quality of content, intelligent and size of penis.

Nary have I laughed such a laugh as when I read such a line as this!

PS. The first time I laughed such a laugh... was when somebody was talking about his version of CTP getting "stuck" on the "Hi yup , bonga bonga" song. Somebody envisioned (on a post) a computer store somewhere in the US where:
Tech 1: Aaaaugh. How do I get this @#@! thing to stop?
Computer: "Hey, yup. Bonga Bonga!"
Tech 2: Try kicking it.
Tech 3: Sounds pretty sick....
Does anybody remember who said that, and what exactly was posted?

I hearby present DanQ with the "best use of the word 'transcend' award! Here ya go.
I'd like to politely applaud Thue for sticking the word "penis" on the end of an otherwise sensible and thought proking sentence. And for giving me a laugh of course.
As for "Hi yup", I had a mate playing CTP who [b][i]refused[i][b] to change the music from that one song just to get on everyone's nerves. After four or five hours straight that song was seeming catchy, fun, boppy and incredibly annoying within the space of about 10 seconds. I've gotta say that it's my fav off CTP though
Oh, and more polite applause goes to sammyboy7 for bothering to put all those decimal points in when he easily could have used less. He probably wins the award for most consecutive numbers in a forum topic.

mkl- i just copied it off my calculator program, but thanks anyway.
danq- you really think your posts have quality? And hey, what 'updates' are you talking about. the only news that i read only comes about once a week.
sammyboy: Have you ever found weird situations where you say something mean to an admin., and a few days later your username and password stop working?

Besides, sammyboy, DanQ has aprox. 15.5875 times as many posts as you do!!
HOWEVER
Taking your sign-up date into account, you've made ROUGHLY 2.25 posts per day. If you continued at this pace for 365 days, you would have 821.25 posts. We all know that DanQ has been on longer then 365 days, so he probably has something closer to 3 posts per day, which is not very far from 2.25.
If anyone can tell me the date of DanQ's first post (probably also the first post), then I would happily do the math.

It's not how many that counts.
It's how you use them.
Anyways, what's the significance of 32 decimal points? Maybe it has something to do with an Apolyton Variant of the Uncertainty Principal.

Uncertainty Principle, in quantum mechanics, theory stating that it is impossible to specify simultaneously the position and momentum of a particle, such as an electron, with precision. Also called the indeterminacy principle, the theory further states that a more accurate determination of one quantity will result in a less precise measurement of the other, and that the product of both uncertainties is never less than Planck's constant, named after the German physicist Max Planck. Of very small magnitude, the uncertainty results from the fundamental nature of the particles being observed. In quantum mechanics, probability calculations therefore replace the exact calculations of classical mechanics.
And there we have the answer! sammyboy7's exact calculations of classical Apolyton post analysis has been eclipsed by the fact he for got about uncertainty. This uncertain value was a result of the fundamental nature of MarkG (the Apolytoner being observed).
Fortunately the MarkG particle tends to write posts that are "to the point." Had he done a similar analysis on, say, a chicken Apolyton post particle, he could have unwittingly stumbled on an entity whose very nature is - uncertain. The result would be a chicken scratch fudge factor that might have ripped a hole in the Apolyton space-time continuum.** Undoubtedly, chaos would insue and the spread of such chaotic insanity might be further exasperated by the fact that Apolyton is essentially a closed universe!
Wow, and I thought it was just a number.
