OK, my fellow posters. I know we’ve already had 10 million of these threads, but I’m determined to get the facts straight.

Here’s the deal.

If you post in this thread, do not digress, just post your top-5 posters in the following format:

1: \<name\>  
2: \<name\>  
3: \<name\>  
4: \<name\>  
5: \<name\>

Note the colon ! I will then, after the deadline, make a big-ass Excel spreadsheet and count the scores. A number 1 position will get 5 points, 2 will get 4, 3 will get 3, 4 will get 2 and 5 will get 1.  
Scores will be added, and hence records will be set straight.

This is it folks. The final showdown. Think well before you submit, as you can only choose 5 names. No elaborations, just the top 5 in the format above, so I can easily C&P all that stuff 🙂

Deadline for this competition: Thursday, November 25, 18:00 CET - that’s 11:00 SDMB time.

I’ll start off by stating my top 5:

1: UncleBeer  
2: Satan  
3: CanadianSue  
4: BurnMeUp  
5: UkeleleIke

## Hit it !

Uh. That would be:

1: [name]  
2: [name]  
3: [name]  
4: [name]  
5: [name]

## Apparently you can’t say “\<name\>”, cause it’ll disappear 🙂

I’m going apeshit over here !!!

Meant to say: “name” but then in these things that can be reached by pressing shift, “,” and “.” respectively… you know, “\<” and “\>”…

## But I see people caught my drift anyway… please proceed 🙂

Only five? There are many more than that. I feel cheated only listing five. I will list some of my recent favorites though. I have a lot more.

1. pldennison
2. Drain Bead (her favorite color is clear)
3. manhattan
4. Dewaholic (he likes Small Wonder and even though I don’t he summarized it well)
5. Everyone else out there who likes me, you know who you are, I am sorry that I did not list you guys and gals offhand.

There really are so many more than this…It pains me to leave them all out. ☹

How are you going to use the number ranking anyway?

“Satan was the top #2” choice?  
If you apply a weighting to the data, let us know how you do it.
