> [@Gfactor](#): > > How’d you check that? Just wondering. I did a seach on “Movie Game” in Cafe Society for any date and older with more than 500 replies. This yields just these Movie Game threads. Then I looked at the post counts for each by clicking on “replies” which shows how many posts everyone has to each thread. Other notables (I’m not doing everyone): **Silenus** has 294 posts in this thread, followed by **Marque Elf** with 179 (and 188 total). **Maureen** had 359 posts in the first game (where has she gotten to?), and has totalled 627 posts. **Gfactor** , you had 265 in the first thread, and a total of 625 posts so far, soon to challege Mo for second place in the Hall of Shame. **CBawlmer** had 165 posts in the first game, but has been quiet ever since. **Nightwatch Trailer** , who started this whole thing, had an even 100 posts in the first thread, then 55 in the second, but has not posted in the subsequent rounds. My secret lover[sup]tm[/sup], **Twickster** , has 591 posts across all four threads thus far. Others with over 100 posts in a single thread include **Aesiron** , **IndyEllen** , **Marque Elf** , **Silenus** , **Honeydewgrrl** , **Superdude** and **BigDummy**. Other notable multithread players include: **Roger Thornhill** , **SternVogel** , **SuperVenusFreak** , **Bordelond** and **Desperate Welfie**. **Maureen** , **Twickster** , **Gfactor** , **IndyEllen** , **Silenus** and me are the only ones with over 200 posts across all of these threads. I’m sure I’ve missed someone; please don’t be offended; this is not scientific. ---

And considering that I only have 219 total, that’s pretty impressive. Or pathetic, depending how you look at it. And pretty soon, this one thread will probably account for more than 50% of my total.
