With only reply number 10 underway, there's still a lot of catching up to do.

And where are all the bits that are needed in a good thread, anyway? The moaning about tanks and Aztecs? The pics of shiny new goodies? The 'Oooh Wow look at that' pics of painted stuff? The pics of planes and trains? There isn't even a top totty pic yet!

While showing a definite knack in tracking down internet resources, I think some of these miss the point.  :P But they are humorous none the less.  =D>

There's really no need to do that now. Maybe if it gets up to 250 posts, but that would be quite mean.  :d

Is it possible to have a topic with more replies than number of times read?
I'm going to try it. Last time it was read 291 times.

It doesn't look like it unless there is a way of replying without opening the topic.  :-\

Possibly, but I'm not sure if it would work?  You'd have to cheat the Forum, by going into your settings and turning off the 'Return to thread after posting' checkbox.  Then after each post you'd need to go straight to the Forum home page instead of back to the message, so that you weren't adding another page view to the tally.  Then click your browsers 'Back' button to come back to the thread, which shouldn't add another view, and make another post.  Repeat ad infinitum as required?

Not sure if any of that would work though!

Could you save the topic reply page (http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php?action=post;topic=6565.15;num_replies=21 (http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php?action=post;topic=6565.15;num_replies=21)) and just open it up whenever you wanted to reply, but I'm not sure it would work as the thread is at the bottom, so it might count as a view? I haven't got a clue if that'd work but it sounded like it would in a Dr Who sort of way...! :P

I remain interested to see where the thread will go, and who will take the laurel.

My post should have been marked with a smiley ....(why aren't they called Georges?) as the intention was to nudge the ailing thing back to life. :d

I also propose a hearty handshake to go along with the laurel.  ;)
