Oops! Sorry, Abin. So much for my proofreading skills at 11:30 at night.
It's fixed now.

My apologies to you, too, Kent. Apparently, I got your and Eryk's numbers right but didn't switch your names. At least this means that there were more changes than I thought.
I'm glad you like the Top 40 updates.
If anyone notices any other errors, please let me know.

That's an interesting question that never got answered. According to our current top 40 (six years later): Rockhopper Lad Arachne
And that appears to be it.

This past year is probably the least productive I've ever been on Legion World. I remember purposely hitting 20,000 right before my honeymoon so I'd be the first poster to ever do it. That was a year ago, and I've only had 1,800 or so posts since...thats really weak for me! A lot of that has to do with lack of Legion comics and not being enthusiastic about the MMB. The latter has now changed, so we'll see...

Interesting piece of trivia.
Here's another: How many Top 40 posters are actually named after Legion characters? I count 10:
Quislet, Esq. Lightning Lad Kent Shakespeare Eryk Davis Ester (e.g., Calamity King) He Who Wanders (M'Onel) Drake B3004 (Wildfire) Ultra Jorge (Ultra Boy) Invisible Brainiac (Invisible Kid/Brainiac 5) Blockade Boy the boy with UltraPowers (Ultra Boy)
Interestingly, only one character is so honored more than once: Ultra Boy.

We know that being married takes a lot out of you.

I think I racked up about 5,000 in the last 6 months of 2004. If I had kept up that pace for the last 4 years I'd be over 40,000 by now.
