Once, in an earlier incarnation of this thread, I thought I might have a chance at winning, but I didn’t. That was a couple years ago I’m sure. I should have just kept completely silent after that so I could be the winner this time. But of course I’m not, with .08 per day. No disappointment this time, though, since I knew already that there are some truly masterful lurkers among us. ---

Another longtime lurker chiming in. I read the SDMB every day (usually during the slow times at work), but rarely post for a number of reasons (usually because slow times at work are randomly interspersed with insanely busy times at work). My rate is 0.03 posts per day. I think this will make it an even 40 posts for me. Now, if I can just work up the gumption to post to that Single Doper and Nerd Hookup thread… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/lurkers-arise-lowest-post-count-contest/244582.md?page=2)
