The mods, in alphabetical order

That’s it. I’m gonna get TubaDiva to change my name to MEBucknerzqxj.

That puts me at a solid 55, and everyone knows that Great Debates is a Triple Word score.

And what about the 50 point bonus for those of us who used up all our tiles?

I don’t have any stats software at home: have you run the correlation without Czarcasm? Is he quite the outlier?

Arnold Winkelried would get a 100 point bonus for using up all his tiles twice.

No, but I’ll do it later.

Well, “Holland” and “Netherlands” are the same thing, really. Actually, they’re not, but they’re used interchangeably. So, to wrap this up: the country is The Netherlands, the province is Noord-Holland, and the city is Amsterdam.

He is an outlier, but Dex is the worse of the two. jdavis is the only other one I’d consider an outlier, and that’s questionable. This isn’t using a statistical test, just removing each mod and seeing what happens to the correlation.

Address is Stadhouderskade 42, Apt. E-12.

Stop by during your next diamond-purchasing trip and and leave a gift on Coldy’s doorstep! No perished pussycats, please. Or flaming sacks of poop.

Hey, Coldfire has got a nice place to live:

It’s not bad, but the Japanese visitors walking through my bathroom every morning are a tad annoying.

Sorry Excel isn’t more precise…

How are you computing the Gödel numbers? Is it the nth prime to the value of the nth letter? If so, I can get exact values, but I’m not sure that people would want to wade through it (after all, these are large numbers).

I believe we’re talking the same thing. See here. You’re right, though, nobody would want to wade though 200+ digit numbers in a post. Mine were on the mark enough to get the mods in an order.

Ahh, go ahead and post 'em. It’s only 1’s and 0’s we’re wasting, and it is mundane and pointless.

We’ve got people of all races in Trinidad and I’ve never seen a Trinidadian wearing clogs. JFTR

NB: Where I’m from, Pig Latin moves the first sound away if the word starts with a consonant. I approximated when I didn’t know how to pronounce things.

The very first moderator who left a message just for me?

Uh, it was TubaDiva. It may have been in the AOL days? I posted a few sexist jokes in a forum, and was told they were inappropriate.

One of them was the joke “What do say to a woman with two black eyes?” Fearing that painful scolding I received many years ago, I won’t bother to post the punch line. Most of you probably know it anyway, and those of you that know me, know that isn’t the type of person I am at all.

If I never said it before, TubaDiva… Sorry, I don’t usually go around trying to offend people.
