I felt like maybe I was slowing down these past few weeks because work's been keeping me so damn busy, but lo and behold I actually went UP a few notches! Cool!
And He Who LSHes, I just want to say again how much I appreciate the trouble and effort you go to to get us these numbers. You rock!!!!!

Validus, of course, can't speak. But if he could speak, I imagine he would say what's underneath his pic (courtesy Dogbert).

I just figured out that I've moved up 33 spots in the past 3 months. But now I'm 350 posts behind the person above me...Exnihil...and he's not going to sit there waiting for me.
Thanks for all the data work, He Who LSHes!

On the other hand, if Exy keeps at his current posting rate, you will eventually overtake him.
As for me, I'm struggling to keep ahead of cleome, who posted almost twice my number, and to advance ahead of Outdoor Miner and Lightning Lad, who are pretty much sitting targets these days but still perched pretty high.
(Why, no, I'm not competitive. Why do you ask? )

Thanks for posting the above list, Lash. It's good to know that some old friends are active elsewhere.
Although the list might give the impression that posters are running for the door, it's been my experience in every club or organization that I've belonged to that people just move on after awhile. (And it took me a long time to realize this, in part, because the LSH always "hangs on" to everybody who ever joins. Even members who are demoted to the reserves don't go away forever. Except in the case of deceased Legionnaires such as Ferro Lad and Invisible Kid, few LSH characters drop out of sight for good.)
On the other hand, what's interesting to me in regards to the current Hot 100 is how the Top 40, in particular, remakes/replenishes itself. Five posters (Set, Sarcasm Kid, Sharky, fk, and Pb) have entered the Top 40 in recent months, whereas the list was static for some time.
The decade from 41-50 remains a volatile place, with three more posters now "bubbling" beneath the Top 40, as they say in chart lingo.
In the bottom 50, things look much more static, but that's typical in a large list. I find it encouraging to see posters like Legion Tracker and now Kid Charlemagne enter and move up the chart. There's more going on here than people just posting to get a higher position. Their level of activity shows a sense of commitment to this fan community.

Back in 2004 we did a little project where some of us (mostly me) emailed a few people to say "hey we're on Legion World, come join us!". This was mostly old LMBers we hadn't heard from in awhile. I know it's what brought Yellow Kid to LW.
Maybe we should do that again? Shoot out a few emails saying "hey, just want to let you know we're still around and would love for you to stop in" or something like that?
Sounds like a job for LMB leader.
