Harry and Ginny _ Procrastination Station _ Milestone Thread!

Posted by: hockeygod May 25 2004, 06:48 PM

If there is already a thread for this, just zap it and tell me where the old one is. I thought we needed on as I am closing in on 3000 posts and Jennie is nearing 1900. If it doesn't get used, I*mogen or B_A_R_T can get rid of it. Thats all.

Posted by: sockless May 31 2004, 08:54 PM

I do beleive this makes 175 for me! yay!!! yeah kinda a sad number isnt it?. . . yes, why yes it is!!

Posted by: hockeygod Jun 24 2004, 02:13 AM

This post number 3000 for me! I wonder if our wonderful house author ever thought her site would have a person with this many posts?

Posted by: QuickHare Jun 24 2004, 12:29 PM

Well this is post #655, and that's a great acheivement considering I haven't been here as long as others. I also calculated I'll be overtaking Nome in a month, I've already overtaken Yoda, and at this rate I'll never catch up with HG.

Imogen, admit it. Your board is successful. More than 3000 members, with one of them over 3000 posts to date!

Posted by: hockeygod Jul 6 2004, 01:58 PM

LETS HEAR IT FOR DRIE!!! She just passed Jennie as #2 all-time poster hear at Elenarda. If I stop posting, she may actually catch me.

Posted by: Della_Luna Jul 6 2004, 03:03 PM

She passed me a while ago ranting.gif

Oh well, congratulations! I'll just have to make up for it before I leave for Boston on the 16th.

HG, you'd better stay on for a while!


Not that it matters but this is post 1817 for me!

I'm aiming for Nome. There's less than 50 posts seperating us, and then I might move up into 9th place. It's not a race, just a fact of life.

I don't think I'll be able to pass your post count -- you've got the lead by 1,000!

Yeah I know. I was trying to give you some hope. tongue.gif

Posted by: hershey Jul 13 2004, 02:18 PM

Well it can't compare with HG, Drie and company but 600 is not bad for a mom of four. thumbup1.gif

Keep plugging away, Hershey! You'll make the 1000 mark by Xmas!

Thanks for the encouragement Robert! blushing.gif

Posted by: Drie Jul 15 2004, 04:44 PM

With this post, I've hit 2000. blink.gif I can't believe it! Thank you, Imogen, for creating such a great site that has kept me coming back again and again (and again and again).

Now, if HG will quit posting, I should take him over in, now let me see, carry the one, subtract by 10 . . . NEVER! laugh.gif

Have you been watching Bo' Selecta again?

Posted by: RJOCL12 Jul 21 2004, 09:42 AM

in answer to your querry, HG, nope. I'm just out to catch a red head. Then I'll come after you! devil.gif

Posted by: Willow Jul 21 2004, 12:14 PM

What IS this thread?

Its cool!

(i know Roberts plans to catch the reeeed heeeaaad nah-nah-nah)

Posted by: hockeygod Jul 21 2004, 12:43 PM

Maybe if I keeled over right now and you started non-stop posting, then maybe you could catch me, maybe. And what is Bo' Selecta?

Posted by: QuickHare Jul 21 2004, 03:54 PM

Bo' Selecta is a show in the UK that may not have reached the US yet. Their homepage, http://www.channel4.com/entertainment/tv/microsites/B/bo_selecta/index.html, features the exact same character I was referring to further up the thread.

Posted by: Drie Jul 21 2004, 04:19 PM

I'm still after HG in # of posts . . . but I don't think that will happen. At least, not without a bunch of random posts clogging up Elenarda, and I don't want to do that.

On the other hand, I think the one we should watch is Jerry, as he's at over 100 and he's only been here for about 4 days! notworthy.gif

Posted by: hershey Jul 22 2004, 10:21 PM

800 posts and I'm in the Top 10!

Oh, and Drie, I'm going to my basement now to work on a Chemistry experiment. If something explodes, not only will I stay down there for over a decade, but I'll never be able to touch this computer again, so don't worry too much tongue.gif (Anyway, I'm not posting just for post count. I'd never do that... intentionally biggrin.gif )

Apparently, many people are overtaking me in the post count. I don't mind. As long as I stay above Yoda, I'm not competing with anyone. If I overtake, I overtake. I'll just throw a party each time I do overtake, that's all.

Posted by: Drie Jul 28 2004, 07:50 PM

And now props to QH for hitting the 900 mark.

This now marks my 1000 post. And it only took me almost a year to make it this far! jump.gif

Way to go, Hershey! fing34.gif

Hey, I just realized I passed my anniversary as well.

Posted by: QuickHare Aug 4 2004, 02:15 PM

Congratulations, Drie! I'll try not to burst into a song by Cliff Richard.

I have a while to go for my anniversary, but I am nearing my 1k mark, and I could overtake three people very soon. And I'm now second on Celebdaq. I am doing well these days!

Posted by: QuickHare Aug 5 2004, 06:07 PM

This one post. This tiny post. This minute addition to this thread marks my 1000th post in this board. At this rate, I'll have built up 1942.8 posts on my one year anniversary. I'll hopefully also have a birthday cake eighteen days before I reach this number, being a birthday to celebrate the start of the third year of my twenties.

Posted by: Drie Aug 5 2004, 06:23 PM

YEA BOYEEE! Whoop de whoop on your accomplishment. Fo' shizzle! Welcome to the quadrupulate digits, my friend.

Posted by: QuickHare Aug 12 2004, 07:31 PM

Not much of a milestone, but more a quick note that I've beaten Imogen on posting count with this one post.

Posted by: hockeygod Aug 17 2004, 06:44 PM

I just reached 3300. Only 360 more to my goal. I want to have an average of 10 on my anniversary.

Posted by: QuickHare Aug 17 2004, 07:27 PM

This should be my 1204th post. I didn't realise I beat the 1200 mark. I was too busy posting wildly with Drie and HG and Phred to notice.

Posted by: hockeygod Aug 18 2004, 07:15 PM

I just passed 3400! Only 260 more posts to my goal.

Posted by: QuickHare Aug 18 2004, 07:18 PM

Pssst! Bart! Is there any way to zero HG's post count on the 29th August 2004? It'd only be for a day as then he won't get his average of 10....

Posted by: hockeygod Aug 18 2004, 07:22 PM

That would be evil QH.

Posted by: QuickHare Aug 19 2004, 12:33 PM

I'm so nice 99% of the time, I'm allowed to be evil sometimes, aren't I? Anyway, I only suggest it. If it acually happens, it's not me fault.

Posted by: hockeygod Aug 19 2004, 04:11 PM

QH and Hershey have both gone over 1300. Cool Beans!

Did I mention I broke 3500? Only 160 posts left to my goal.

Posted by: QuickHare Aug 20 2004, 08:09 PM

Yep. Hershey and myself should be close most of the time as we're trying to beat each other for some reason. I don't really want to compete, but I never turn down a challenge.

Posted by: hockeygod Aug 20 2004, 08:25 PM

WOO HOO! I am now at 3600 posts. Only 60 away from my goal.

With my last post, I hit my goal!

Posted by: PhredthePineappleEater Aug 30 2004, 08:20 PM

That's great, hockeygod!

I slid past 100

Posted by: QuickHare Aug 31 2004, 02:06 PM

Has anyone seen our post counts recently or have they disappeared for a while? Of course, this post is more aimed at Bert or Imogen, who should know where they've gone...

I believe they were temporarily removed because a certain individual had become obsessive about obtaining a certain goal which in turn began to annoy other members and disrupt the harmony of our lovely Elenarda.

Posted by: QuickHare Aug 31 2004, 02:25 PM

Would it be easier to lock this thread to discourage the competitive behavious of said individuals?

Posted by: hershey Aug 31 2004, 02:29 PM

Excellent suggestion. Something which I could do but I don't know how to bring the numbers back to each post so the point would be moot. In addition, if anyone needs to know how many posts they have there is a list you can access.

Posted by: hockeygod Aug 31 2004, 03:02 PM

If I was disrupting the boards so much, why did no one tell me?

Sorry, didn't mean to implicate you HG. I really believe there were several of us getting caught up in the numbers game. Myself included at times. blushing.gif Regardless, the PTB have come up with a fair solution for the meantime.

~H~

Posted by: Elenarda Aug 31 2004, 03:56 PM

LOL Don't worry HG, if you'd have been a problem we'd have kicked you wink.gif

We just thought we've vanish the post counts before a little bit of competitive fun took over the boards. Hopefully you're not too disappointed - there's still the top 10 posters list if you're truly curious about how many posts you've made!

Imogen smile.gif

Posted by: hockeygod Aug 31 2004, 04:06 PM

Thanks Imogen.

I still look at the list to see how much time I've procrastinated here.

Posted by: RJOCL12 Sep 1 2004, 05:54 PM

Not that i have a strong objection to competition.

But its really stupid people getting so obbsessed with post counts, and im glad that we cant see them.

Posted by: QuickHare Sep 1 2004, 07:10 PM

I actually do agree. It was a shock not to see them, but since they went, I haven't really missed them. I don't bother looking up how many I've done. I only look at what percentage I procrastinate compared to General Discussion-ing. And that's rare these days, too.

I remember when HG persisted to post all the time because he wanted the title of top poster off me. (dont deny it cos i know its true) When i really didnt mind who had it i just posted for fun, and i found it hilarious cos every post was HG's !!

Was funny, at the time. Maybe only to me. But.

Cristin, there's no need to try and reach 5000 posts. I believe in quality before quantity. It's just good of Jerry to provide both, as with the other member to pass the 5000 mark, the wonderful Drie. In fact, a quick snapshot of the leaderboard is as follows:
