916 posts since April 7th. That’s 308 days. Now, subtract my little “vacation” from the board (7/23 - 9/14, I think), that’s 255 days. So, 3.6 posts per day. Not much. **However** , when you consider that I post on several other boards, the number changes considerably. My **total** post count is more like 1874 posts. Divide by the same number of days (since the SD was the first board that I joined, and when I took that break I took it from _all_ of the boards) and you come out with 7.35 posts per day. ## Damn. That still sucks. Yeah, well, I have a life! (Yeah, that’s the ticket.)

How do you know how many posts you have without actually making a post? Or does everybody here post often enough that that’s not a problem for them? I started the “who’s from the smallest town” thread, now maybe I should start “who’s got the lowest posing average” ---

Looks pretty close to .312 posts per day, depending on exactly whn I registered. Gotta be pretty close to a record, but all this posting is going to mess up my average. 🙂 ---

Hmmm 771 posts, 141 days comes out to 5.47 per day. That’s pretty good, except for the fact I don’t post on weekends. Take those out and I jump up to 7.56 posts per day, which means I have much less of a life. Of course take out that 10 day Christmas vacation… * * * Have you voted for your favorite, huggable Mullinator today? ---

But I would like an asterisk in the record book. I posted ONCE, on Dec. 18, and then not again until January, deciding I should read and learn before diving in. So I really should get only forty-two days worth of time charged to me in this calculation. 🙂 - Rick ---

Another one of the lazy brigade heard from: ## 100 days 136 posts (well, that’s what the profile said) 1.36 a day Hey, it’s over 1, which is fine with me. You all realize that the way to beat these numbers is to register, and then get into a bunch of stupid arguments and post a few dozen times a day, right? Is this behavior that we’re trying to encourage? * * * …but when you get blue, and you’ve lost all your dreams, there’s nothing like a campfire and a can of beans! ---
