Why don’t you aim for a far more attainable goal? Like ranking #1 in DRY’s SDMB correspondent frequency list (Better get started–you’ve got a ways to go to catch Grace, to say nothing of fending off Medea’s Child). Don’t you think that if I wanted to hold off your challenge, I’d just bump 20 random threads a day? (I’ve never “bumped” any threads, for the record) Or post to every damned post party and birthday thread here? Or ask 10 questions of every “Ask the whozis” thread? Remember, age and treachery will defeat youth and skill every time. ---

**Anti Pro** , it _was_ high time I finally decided what I want to do with my life. My mom is going to be so proud! As for you, **Mr. DRY** , sure be all cocky now, just wait til I totally anihilate your Shakespearean ass. Victory will be mine! Go ahead, ask Mr. Tot, I can out-treach anyone, anytime. So, watch your back, whever you post one congratulations, I’ll be right behind you posting twice. For every ten questions you ask, I’ll ask 20. I am more than willing to abandon my policy of only replying to threads that I can logically contribute to. From now on, you can just call me Bumpmeistertot. (now what are we competing for again?) ---

:::weeping softly:::And what do you mean, I’m not your number one correspondent? After all I’ve done for you? Just yesterday, I put off moping the kitchen floor and scrubbing the toilet, just so that I could put a little sunshine in your in-box. It was a sacrifice, but I did it all for you, you little ingrate. So, what is it? Are their e-mails better than mine? Longer? Do they reply faster? Or was it all just a plot to keep me busy so that I wouldn’t have the time to post an extra 12.63 times a day? I feel so used right now. ☹ ---

Ok that was good. I debuted in the hot 100. But how about this: 1. A list for the people who OP the longest threads (in terms or replies). 2. The list of people whose threads were the most watched 3. Who has the lowest ratio of threads joined in or started to posts. Low ratio may suggest troll activity. ---

capacitor said: “1. A list for the people who OP the longest threads (in terms or replies).” A few come to mind right now. First is Shayna, for her Wally death thread and her smoke-out thread. Second is Boo Boo for his “Check-in for all Female Newbies” thread. Third is the dopeville thread. Fourth is the “weird things while being intimate/lovemaking.” “2. The list of people whose threads were the most watched.” Again, gotta go with the four above. “3. Who has the lowest ratio of threads joined in or started to posts. Low ratio may suggest troll activity.” I’ve had a few threads, and I don’t think any of them have exceeded 30 responses. The one that was above 20 was for Falcon, anyway. And I think we would all agree I am not a troll. We all better agree. I ain’t no steenkeen’ troooll ---

I decline to compare relative quality. Scotticher and Medea’s child send me long and interesting e-mails, though for the record your last one was the longest I’ve ever gotten.

Wow, the only poster with the same frequency as the board’s biggest flirt (female). Does that mean that we resonate? As to longest thread, I believe that the record actually goes to an ATMB thread, the [Master List](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=2136), started by Chrome Toaster, which was eventually closed because it was pretty much larger than the rest of the forum combined. It reached 9 pages and got 447 replies. Meanwhile, its daughter thread, [Master List redux](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=2539), started by beatle, added another 2 pages and 60 replies. ---

Well, Bill H., I have to congratulate you, from one obsessive-compulsive type to another. I had actually considered doing something like this in the past, but never actually had enough time. Well, now we have yet another means to establish meaningless heirarchies! On the topic of the longest threads, some of you who are doing the nominating are new, and so don’t remember UncleBeer’s legendary Guy Stuff thread. (Hey admins! When are the archives going back up?) But going down those lists sure made me nostalgic for some MIA posters. Whatever happened to AzRaek? What’s Pixoid been up to? How about Dewaholic and SINSapple? Or Chrome Toaster? I noticed tipiwoo and okatym pop back up recently, but they seem to have left this little section of cyberspace once more. And looking at the list I just made, is it really all women who are disappearing, or am I just biased? Oh, well. Anyhow, I remain (until further notice) your friendly neighborhood… neuro-trash grrrl #101 post frequency #56 number of posts ---
