    The OT has a throughput probably nearly equal to the rest of the entire site.

    Well, maybe a half of it.

      Well I don't agree because I would be a deity if Off topic posts counted.

      Certainly more than 40 deities, because you have to remember that all the ontopicers would have their stats boosted.

        As for NYE, he should get congrats for being the first Canadian Deity. Even before DanQ.

          There would certainly be hundreds. 10,000 is a lot of posts, but most OT regulars have between 2 and 5 thousand on-topic posts as well. It would be trivial for them to have gotten the other 5 to 8 thousand posts just from the OT. 125,000 posts supplementing people's on-topic post count would lead to many over 10,000.
          I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

            Yes, I think your order of magnitude is just a wee off here

              As well as the point.

                What point was that?

                    Yeah, with 30 or so posts a day it only takes a year to get to deity

                      congrats to the new deities, and also the several new emperors.

                        The statement from Skanky I took issue with (and you said you disagreed with me) was that there would be hundreds of deities if OT posts counted. Hundreds means at least 200, and I'd be incredibly surprised if there were that many OTers that had posted sufficiently heavily over a sustained amount of time to be deities.

                          I watched you fall. I think I pushed.

                            Just shorten it to "I'd be incredibly surprised" then.

                              What I said was perfectly clear if you read the whole thread.

                                If Civ3 had been worth my while I'd be a Deity by now. Since it sucked I took a year off 'Poly in absolute disgust and Civ3List burnout. On my return the anemic Civ2 forums made my posting more sparse (damn the barbarians!).
