Well, hell. I thought this’d be one more silly flirt thread that I wouldn’t get mentioned in. Instead this has the potential to: A) Be really amusing and B) Bump a lot of old threads [The bottle, it spins!](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=56852#post56852) Byzantine complaining about being forced to use the truth in his arguments (in a satirical way). ---

Some notes: Posts are numbered sequentially. The numbers are up to around 1770600. Because they pruned a whole bunch of old threads, the lower the number, the less likely you are to get a good thread. The first number tells the database which thread to display (by the post number), the second number will send you to the correct post. We could probably work up a scoring system for this: 1 point for a 6 digit number, 2 points for a 5 digit number, etc. 1 point for a thread with Wally in it 5 points if the post stands on it’s own 5 points for a thread which Wally started 10 points for going straight to a Wally post 5 points for a thread about sex -1 points for screwing up the coding. 😛 ---
