Yes, now I see where I'm going wrong . . .

Thanks for posting those Techno. I always find such stats interesting ... I might be more than a little strange  8-}

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

Can you do a top 10 of the posts/day figure?
Might be interesting.
Cheers, Martyn

Not sure.....I can see the number of post per month/day.....But I don't think it shows much more than that.
It seems to depend on how much we play silly s*ds a lot of the time. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

SOMETIMES........It's relevant.  ;)

Thanks for that Techno.

A top 10 posts per day would be interesting. Not sure it means anything significant but like Roy I am intrigued by these sorts of odd stats.

We need an

(hours logged on)/ (hours been a member)

metric to identify the slackers like me lurking around the forum all day. Also we need to institute a weekly global disconnect so I can become the 5th most indolent forum member :)

My own posting total and average is

5252 (3.330 per day)
There are 100 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who can work from incomplete data

Oh....Intercourse  a mallard....I've just gone past 15.000 posts.

EXCUSE MOI!!!!!

Is this a wish of yours Techno?

I have to insist I have no wish to be intimate with you....... Unless of course it was to get you to produce DUCK MEN?

Question 17 part d.  I average 2.952 posts per day. If the 125 InterCity leaves King's Cross at 15:22 bound for Aberdeen and the conductor's socks are chartreuse, will I become a Major General before Boxing Day?

Oh d_Guy, you fell into the most rudimentary of mistakes. There is no 15:22 from King's Cross to Aberdeen. It leaves on the hour.

The Train Manager on the 15:00 does not wear socks, but prefers black silk hold ups. His name is Norman.

Yes, you will become a Major General before Boxing Day, but I am not prepared to specify in which year.

Blimey, Techno and his arch-nemesis Duckman. It's like watching Batman and the Joker isn't it?

Without the violent death and nerve gas.

"You again Duckman! I thought I threw you off the Naked Tony Tower!"
"No, that was FSN in the Pendrakenmas drivel!"
"What do you want?"
"Same thing as always, for Pendraken to produce a range of heroic Duckmen - that's not a canard."
"It's not for canard that I work!"
"I know, I've seen your production rate! Are we ever going to see some Korean Chinese? ... say from Peking?"
"From Peking."
"No. I meant 'say' as in 'for example', not 'say' as in 'repeat after me'."
"Oh sorry."
"Why are you my arch-foe?"
"What's your nefarious scheme this time, Duckman?"
"'Nefarious'? Have you been reading Reader's Digest again?"
"Stop cracking yolks, Duckman, eider tell me what you want or waddle off"
"I've told you. I want a range of Pendraken Duckmen, and you won't stop getting medical supplies until I do!"
"You fiend!"
"But that's only one wing of my plan. Westmarcher enjoyed his little nocturnal visit didn't he? It's amazing what you can do with a feather pillow and a little bit of imagination"
"You fiend!"
"You're repeating yourself, which shows a certain lack of flair."
"You ...f ... fi ... you Oik!"
"That stings, it really does. You have to ask yourself, who's next? Who's going to pay the bill for my intransigence?"
"Who's next.? Who's going to pay the bill for my inter ... intor ..."
"Intransigence. Readers Digest, March 1984 edition. Look it up!"

Hmmm...may be the silliest thread yet.
I don't drink coffee to wake up. I wake up to drink coffee.

I can't address other aspects of the thread but until fsn pointed out my logical fallacies I thought I at least had offered a serious question.
