This is post #1801 for me. Yikeroonies. I'm challenging myself to post 199 more by the time the board is relaunched. For the glory of 2K. Obviously, we have no idea when that will be (but an inkling that it will be soon), which will make it all the more exciting. Or something.Now, if we do the math, I've been here 14 months. I took some time off last summer because I had too much work to do at work. Damn jobs. Anyway, the math says that I've posted 128.6 ppm. 180 ppm if you subtract the four-ish months I wasn't around. Let's be convenient and estimate that it'll take Pahl at least another month to get the board ready ... I can do this, dammit! I'll see you in the Shrimp! IP: Logged |

Yay yay Y2K! You can do it, girl!I'd sorta half-assed made the same resolution myself -- make it to 1000 posts before reset. Are we going to get a warning before they relaunch the board? Anyone? Anyone ... ? ~~~~~~~~~ Jeanine Edited to say this is # 838.

With this freebie (thanks, Neb), I've made 30 posts in the past 42 hours. Not too shabby. I'm really trying to rack a lot up now because God only knows what'll be going on in my life in the next couple of weeks.Thanks for all the encouragement and the blasting of inspirational songs.

Well, as of this morning Y2K has 104 to go to reach Post2k. This is inspiring. So I've decided to join her. In 150 posts I'll reach post4k. Think of it as double coupon day in Tri-B.I've been averaging around 20 posts a day for the last few days, so if I can increase that to 30 I'll be done in a week. Watch out BCS, here we come!

Spicy, it hasn't been relaunched yet, but it will before long.I, too, want to hit that magic 2k posts, but I can't seem to spend any time in BCS anymore (I've tried a couple of times), so I may be out of luck.  Ah well, maybe next board! IP: Logged |

Actually, I think I need seven, don't I? Wait, no, six now.Edited to add: actually, that looks a bit pathetic in contrast with everyone else's targets. Maybe I should try for 150. Although since it took me, what, six months to get this many posts, maybe not... [This message has been edited by AndLuna (edited May 22, 2001).] IP: Logged |
