Wow, thanks again Klaas! I’m glad you didn’t add the Just Conversation bits and pieces. I wonder what I was asking so many annoying questions about in March. That was a close one John! You’re a lot more valuable though…most of your posts are answers to other people’s questions.
It’s interesting to see where in the year I tried to sort out my priorities and do more actual unicycling. That’s one of my new years resolutions.
I find this really interesting…
We go out and unicycle on the weekends and then talk about our experiences on the monday. It’s good to see we generally have our priorities right. And by thursday and friday we’re all bogged down with work until the weekend.

Should be easy. Counting only 1 July - 31 December you were at place
12 so you just continue like now.

No real record of that. It is in the raw data but difficult to get
out. I myself post in various ways: Newsgroup, Forum (both from home
and work), occasionally from Google Groups, but all under the same
user name. That should explain my 5th place

Because of your bad memory, I included a link to previous years at the
top of the stats page. But in fact there was MORE spread in 2002.

Maybe you can team up with Phil (and possibly Mikefule) and negotiate
a discount?

You have to keep in mind that those of us who post on RSU are not normal. - John Childs
Seeing myself on the the same list with so many luminaries makes me immediately regret the time I spent in Most Replies. Yes, I padded—but I never STUFFED.
For penance, I’m going to go hit Most Views a few thousand times and not say a word. Quiet as a little nursie mouse…
would the stuff in most replies, or Just Conversation for that matter, be counted since it can not be accessed by the news group Klaas got the numbers from? because i have over 200 posts but most of them are in JC and i am not on the list.
Most replies 2 was the one that got stuffed and well deserved to be locked. The original MR has turned out to be good convo and less random comments about nothing. There seems to be less stress on getting the most replies out of it; now it is just a good place to have random conversation about topics that don’t deserve their own thread. There is way less padding going on there than you think; it’s now conversation for the sake of conversation, not for the sake of high postcounts. Yes, I am defending the MR thread. That’s all I’ve got for it though.
In my opinion, the people with the high postcounts should spend more time out on their uni and less time in here.
If I don’t go inactive for a month here and there, I think I’ll probably move up in the rankings this year. Of course, I will be getting a job and possibly a wife this year, so who knows what will happen…
