Looks like I'll have to pull an all nighter to increase my lead. Posted by MLLASH on :
Oh tish-posh! There's no need for all that! Surely you are getting tired... your very limbs feel like they are weighed down with tar... your eyelids cannot possibly remain open for much longer... you are getting sleeeeeeeeepy... very very very sleeeeeeeeeeeeeepy.
Posted by LARDLAD on :
Actually, I (EDE) should move higher in the rankings when you take into consideration my posts as LARDLAD...
Rocky, here's Lardy's message for Cobalt. I'm emailing it to you, so it'll have all the UBB codes for posting in it. I'll be sending you another one for Cali, also. Thanks!
quote:Hey Des,
If you're reading this message, then that means I didn't survive my attempt to reignite the fusion powersphere. If that's the case, know that I was prepared for it.
Don't think for a second that I had a death wish and went further than I needed to in order to fulfill it. If I gave everything to save Legion World, then that's what it took.
Des, if you were in my place, and you knew with absolute certainty that someone you loved was going to die and that you could die in their place, wouldn't you give your life gladly? I just couldn't live with myself if I let Cali die. I knew I could do the job, so I did and she's still alive because of it.
I want to thank you for all you've done for me. The fact is, I didn't deserve to have a friend like you! You stood by me when you had no business doing so. That's true friendship, and having had very, very few in my life, know that it meant more to me than words can say.
So don't grieve for me. I died in a way that any honorable warrior would be proud to die. And, between you and me, I got glimpses of what the future would be like if I'd lived, and, well, I'm glad I won't turn into the man I saw. There's a gnawing darkness within me, Des, one I'm sure you've seen shadows of. I've done a lot of bad things in this life, a few of which you don't even know about. But this way, the darkness won't be my legacy. Know in the end that I chose the light.
Please pass on my warmest regards to Lou and Darden. I always valued their friendship. And if an inter-dimensional traveller named Chuck Taine comes looking for me at some point, share a beer with him for me.
Eryk...there was a lot left unresolved between us, and I've barely seen him in the year-plus I've been back. Tell him I've always thought of him as my brother and cherished our relationship immensely.
Pru...maybe it's best that I don't pass on any final message to her. I hurt her a lot, Des. Hopefully, she's moved on. She's always owned a part of my heart, though. And I've thought about her a lot lately.
But please, Des, look after Helen and the kids. Financially, they are set for life, but they need someone to look out for them. I only wish I had done more for them.
And Pro-D. I haven't seen him since right after the Invasion. Look into what happened to him, will ya?
Be there for Cali, Des. I've a feeling she's going to be beating herself up over this.
Finally, I have something specific I need you to do. It's about Clive...he's got a chance to live again! In my quarters at the security office, there's a trunk under my bed. In that trunk is a backup chip that I had Dru enchant back when we created him. Clive's body is in the Tower--if you insert that chip into his positronic brain, it should reactivate him and restore all that is unique about him. It's not guaranteed to work, but it should. This is my last request, Des. If Clive is able to live again and be happy, then I truly will rest in peace.
Thanks again, Des...for everything!
Your friend, Lardy

Nice try, Lardy, but The TOP 5 Club don't operate like that!

I had no idea I had the #2 spot, or even close (although if you see my post on the "why them?" thread, it's kinda fitting ). I guess my recent bout of sleeplessness put me over.
But LLash, you're just asking for someone to go on a spam-a-thon ... stirrin' the pot and all...
Posted by MLLASH on :
NO way am I encouraging spam, Drakey!
A post-a-thon is different.
Like I did last night-- I hit the topics and made comments in each that pertained to the subject matter! And lo, how my post count blossomed like a sun-dappled tulip!

Oh boy - Post Ping Pong.
Too bad I have to leave soon. I'm making strawberry jam then out to help friends launch a boat. Wonder if I could borrow EDE's nelly l'il cap for the event?
If I was really serious about post count, this would have been 5 separate posts.
Posted by MLLASH on :
Just always remember the LMB Creed:
It's not how MUCH you post
It's how OFTEN you post!
Posted by Fat Cramer on :
You should do a count of top 5 topic starters too.
I always admired how Lash and TD could hit a board with a flurry of new topics, then ride off into the night, not necessarily together.
Posted by MLLASH on :
The top 5 posters is calculated automatically. Cick the DIRECTORY link up top.
It also lists a MEMBER OF THE MOMENT.
Earlier tonight the Member of the Moment was MEKT RANZZ. He obviously bribed someone! *tee hee!*

Especially when you consider it only took us a week to get to the levels we are currently at.
Posted by DrakeB3003 on :
Since this is my 200th post, I can say this:
maybe we should rename this the "get a life" club!!!
(oh man, I'm drunk... )
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Since Lash obviously exhausted himself in his all night post-a-thon, here's an update:
997 posts just from the top five. Wow! Last count we had 2,292 total posts with over 51,000 (!!!!) pageviews. You guys are just awesome!
Posted by Dave on :
Interesting...
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
In case anyone's interested, there's currently about 7900 posts at Legion World... how long till we exceed it, I wonder?
Posted by Lightning Lad on :

EDE, did you mean Legion HQ?
As to how long it'll take us to pass that mark, I say give us another month. We'll probably be settled in and around to our regular posting habits by then and should be around 7500 to 8000 posts. Or at least that's what I think.
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Yeah, I meant Legion HQ.
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
252 posts in the last 23 hours. Not too shabby. And all of the top five posters now have over 200 with one of them reaching the 300 mark. Hmm. I wonder who that could be? Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Just wanted to point out that the sixth highest poster, Fat Cramer, has about 130 posts. The only other person in triple digits, last time I checked, is the Boy with Ultra Powers.
Membership in the club seems secure for the time being...
Posted by MLLASH on :
I say, once a member always a member.
Shoud Cramer knock one of us out of the Top 5, she'll become the Sixth member of this most exclusive of clubs!
We'll have annual barbecues and weenie roasts!
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
A total of 8 of us are currently in the triple digits:
Lightning Lad - 316 DrakeB3003 - 226 MLLASH - 219 EDE - 218 Kid Prime - 217 Nightcrawler - 140 Fat Cramer - 130 the boy with UltraPowers - 113

Ooops! I obviously missed Gary when I stated that Fat Cramer was sixth. But, nontheless, there's quite the gap between the top five and the next group (and quite the gap between Scott and the rest of the top five, I might add...)
Posted by Princess Crujectra on :
I tend to suspect that I'll never be in the top five posters. There just isn't usually enough that I want to say Posted by Fat Cramer on :

That's just the reserve that comes with good breeding, Princess. We plebes tend to babble on at length with all sorts of inanities.
Besides, you're in a much more exclusive - and immutable - club - the first five members!

Posted by Kid Prime on :
Well, I suppose you guys could swap...
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
I believe Teeds suggested that Lash's membership number was indicative of a special connection between the two of us. Something about our earlier activities in a tree...
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
...and this is 247 for me!
That's enough for tonight, I believe!
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Congrats EDE!
And here is an updated count as of Midnight, Mountain time. We have a total of 3093 posts to the board with the following top posters:
Lightning Lad - 358 MLLASH - 256 DrakeB3003 - 253 EDE - 247 Kid Prime - 231 Nightcrawler - 152 Fat Cramer - 144 the boy with UltraPowers - 119
So the top 8 have a combined total of 1760 posts. That's roughly 57% of the posts. I think the 8 of us need to be checked for carpal tunnel syndrome. Posted by the boy with UltraPowers on :
Well !!! i didn't think i was doing so well ... okay !!! not quite up there with the rest of you guys, but i'm getting there .....
i have TOTALLY given up posting at the 'TnT' board and the 'LMBP' though !!!

Posted by Faraway Lad on :
I will never get my numbers up to the levels of your guys. But I see this board as a marathon not a sprint. I'll be here posting for as long as the board exists, or I live, whichever ends first.
On that basis, and assuming some of the more prolific current posters, either get bored and leave, or (much more unlikely) find a life outside legion fandom and message board posting, I'll probably build up a pretty high post count over the coming years and decades which might, through sheer perseverance get me into the top ten.

Aaaaah, second place! Eat my dust, Drake, Eryk and Jeffey!

400+, that's astounding.
I take off a long weekend, lose my modem at home and look at me, left behind by insurmountable numbers.
Posted by Fat Cramer on :
Life is cruel, Matlock. But have you considered the possiblity of sabotage?
It took me over an hour this morning to get my threshold working - very very suspicious, if you ask me. And as I said, I'm in a very very bad mood - so I'm going out now to look for that Nardo character. I got the right kinda snarl to take him on today. And I've got Batista Boy with me - so we're going to be doing some slim-assing!
Watch where you're sitting!

Way to go everyone! At least you're all still having fun. I'm not going to post any stat updates until probably Monday. Let people have time to build up over the weekend. Of course, if you don't like my little interruptions with the stats, just say so and I'll quick bugging everyone.
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
And here's my final stop for the night. Have a good night one and all and I'll see you in a few hours.
Posted by MLLASH on :
A quick click on the directory shows the TOP 5 POSTERS haven't changed but the STATS sure have!
SCOTT and DRAKE are the top 2 and have a considerable lead on me, at # 3.
I have actually gotten a considerable lead on Jeffey (# 4) and EDE (# 5) now.
Scooter, I like how your list includes everybody in triple digits.
(ps/ I never thought of this as competing. I'm a self-admitted fan of stuff like BILLBOARD and the TOP 100 COMICS, so this is great fun for me!)
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
I don't see it as competing either Lash. I, too, like the same kind of lists. So here's an update for everyone.
We are up to 4652 posts and over 102,000 page views. The current top posters (in triple digits) are:
Lightning Lad - 512 DrakeB3003 - 391 MLLASH - 352 Kid Prime - 295 EDE - 274 Fat Cramer - 237 the boy with UltraPowers - 224 Nightcrawler - 191 TD - 185 Reep - 175 Danny Blaine - 133 Greybird - 130 lil'rhino - 124 matlock - 106 Princess Crujectra - 102
15 of us account for 3431 posts or roughly 74% of the current total. We should easily have 20+ members with over 100 posts by next weekend, the end of our 3rd week.
Personally I am only 188 posts away from my total number of post at the old DCMB (700). Any of the rest of you remember your numbers?
Posted by Princess Crujectra on :

Okay, just had to point out this strange little posting sidenote. I was working on the Pre-boot Legion Time Line and my last entry was for the year 2996, Zero Hour. My post number? 666. I guess the Legion was doomed from the start.

Just checked the morning stats... this is worse than the stock market.
Eryk, don't you have to wash your car or something today? Or maybe you could take a little weekend trip to a nice quiet place without electricity?
Who will pull out of the rotating fifth place for a definitive lead? EDE? Ultra Matthew? FC? Or a Dark Horse?
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Fifth place is still too close to call. But I can't take the suspense anymore. I'm off to bed. You all behave while I catch a few z's.

We in the so-called second tier have simply self-actualized to the point that we don't need to be concerned with trivial things like post counts. Right, Ultra?
A word to the wise, though .... TD was making fantastic progress this a.m. I think she's a contender. If you're following that sort of thing.
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Teeds's posts come in huge bursts. Definitely someone who can catch up... but unlikely to stay in the top five regularly...
Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Hmm. I've been thinking. Is it a good thing or a bad thing to have Lash breathing down my neck for the top spot? Maybe I'll have to slow down my posting to let him get closer and find out. Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Doesn't Lash have enough people on this board flirting with him, and vice versa?
Posted by Thriftshop Debutante on :
Scott - get you some extra IDs. That's what keeps me out of such dubious company.
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Yeah, I guess if we were fair, TD probably would be beating us all. Even if you lump me and Lardy together.
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Come to think of it... I'm surprised TD doesn't belong to the Top Five Posters Club all by herself!
Posted by Thriftshop Debutante on :
Refer back to what the Triads said on page one.

It should be mentioned that Teeds broke into the Top Five club this morning, and is close on the heels of me and KP. Fat Cramer isn't all that far behind, either, I believe.
It appears as though the Boy with Ultra Powers has been left in the dust for the time being, however.

It's not such a big deal Danny, the clubhouse is in shambles -- the tennis court hasn't been maintained in like *a week*, the jacuzzi only fits 12, you can't get a massage past 2 am and there's only one personal chef per member -- I mean *hello* -- any decent club would have a separate pastry/ desert/ tampas chef at least!

My current count is actually more than I got in my year at the old DCMB. I only managed 700 there in one year's time. I'm sure we'll all shatter our old records. It just may take some, like Grey, more time.

Excellent deduction, E Davis Ester! I am indeed a time-lost Legion applicant named Shannen Dreys but perhaps better known to you all as the notorious omnisexual QUAKE KID!

Its either that are we are randomly quoting our asses off. Posted by Fat Cramer on :
I dunno - maybe we could just start posting random quotes about frequent posting here, interspersed with quotes about flirting with Lash - it would give a certain efficiency to the top five race.

That's not by chance Tiffany Spiffany you were refering to was it F.C.?

Why, yes Varalent - are you a special friend of hers?
By the way, what was the topic again?
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
What happened to Tiffany? She was here one day, and I haven't seen her since.
Posted by Varalent on :
No actually the name "Tiffany" just seemed to fit with "Spiffany". Didn't realize there actually was someone here by that name.
Posted by Fat Cramer on :
Whoops! Is there a Tiffany here? I was thinking of Ms. Spiffany myself.

Apparently there is. I checked the directory and found this:
Tiffany Spiffany (Member # 161) Applicant Registered: August 02, 2003 Location: The Spiffany Summer Estate, Intrests: Mars Travel, Leisure, Wealthy Young Gentlemen

I was thinking about making you #5, Danny. Varalent is another dark horse who I wouldn't be surprised if he's in the top five two months from now.

"--the outcome of which was a proposal by the aforementioned Lister to the aforementioned Rimmer to cook him breakfast." "Okay, I'm getting the picture." "Breakfast comprised of two eggs, three rashers of bacon, a grilled tomato, two sausages, a small portion of fried potatoes... and a large quantity of _mushrooms_. Having consumed this repast, second technician Rimmer, Arnold J. experienced what can only be described as a voyage to trip-out city. To whit, a major hallucinogenic fit." "Lister, is this true?" "No, sir. I'm sure it was only one egg." "The aforementioned Rimmer, to whit, me, then attended inspection parade. He was totally naked except for a pair of mock-leather driving gloves and some blue swimming goggles. Under the influence of this psychadelic breakfast he went on to attack two senior officers, believing them to be giraffes who were armed and dangerous." "You'd better have a good reason for this, Lister." "I have, sir." "Why'd you do it?" "I thought it'd be a laugh." "Right. Two weeks PD, Lister. Dismissed." "With respect, sir, the penalty for a crime of this nature is fifteen years imprisonment." "Y'WHAT!?!" "Rimmer, I sentenced this man." "Two weeks?" "That's enough." "Two smegging weeks?" "I said, that is enough!" "With repect, sir, you've got your head right up your big fat arse."

"He's defective. He wants everyone to eat toast ALL OF THE TIME. He's obsessed with it. And if you don't want to eat, like, four hundreds rounds of toast EVERY HOUR, he throws a major wobbly.

And there's a super-dog, super-cat, super-monkey, and even super-horse graemlin, but none for a super-rat.

Rody there is an Avatar for your use. Just because you chose not to use it doesn't make us speciesists.

Where did you get that photo?!
I can't believe it! A rodent has too much to drink and decides to get a goofy picture taken ONE TIME, and before you know it, it's all over the internet!

Glad to see I one am still in the Coolest Posters Club!
Not to mention that I've got lifetime membership in the Top Five Posters Club...
Posted by STU on :
Cobie's now in the Top Five Club?
Sheesh, they'll let anyone in these days... Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
You bet I'm in the top 5 posters club now! And if I remember right, you were the last 'newbie' into the club! Like I told Scott not too long ago, I should hit "Time Trapper" status by midsummer's Eve!
And there are many a Legion Worlder who would envy me for being between Semi and Vee right now !

You'll never bump me out! Don't think I don't see EDE, Quis, IB and others making their way up!
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Jeepers, Cobie! You're a good 1100 posts ahead of the sixth place poster! Relax. You've got nothing to worry about. Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
That's what Reep said, and look what happened to him! Gone insane and running amuck in cyber space!
Besides, I plan to move up at least once more before mid-summer!

Great Krypton!!
Cobie's getting power hungry.

That's right, take advantage of someone when they're down. You may be moving up on me now but just you wait until I get back to full posting strength! Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
I figured I'd take advantage of you while you're lying down!

Don't worry, this only happens about every week or so.

So... when's the next barbeque?
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Welcome back aboard, EDE!
It's Lash, Scott, myself, Vee and you, and you're quickly about to beat out Vee!
And I'm still a solid 1,000 posts behind Scott, after promising him months ago that I'd one day beat him out
Still, all of the top five posters get so many benefits that I don't mind being where I am...<smokes Cuban cigar>
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
*Sigh* I've got to log off for awhile. Try to keep Miss T's "revolution" in check while I'm gone, will you, Cobie?
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
I'll try EDE, but I'll be loggin on and off all day for a bit too now...
Security Officers, be strong!
Posted by HighPriestessViviane on :
Can I say that I hate this Club!!!
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
And guess who's shot into fourth place!
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Excellent!
Now you're right behind me, although I plan to beat out Scooter before anyone else advances...
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
I'll be gunning for Scooter myself, then!
It'll be kewl when you, me, and Lash are the Top Three!
Posted by Deathstroke Lad on :
Dream on boys. Dream on.
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
But... you're only 2400 posts ahead of me! Time to start sweating!
Posted by Pagan Lass on :
Scott! Great to see you! Feeling much better I hope!
Posted by Deathstroke Lad on :
Feeling well enough to keep the dogs at bay, thanks. Young whipper-snappers. They don't realize I had my reasons for letting Lash pass me by. Posted by Pagan Lass on :
Maybe I could leave a hex or two laying around?
But I doubt you need much help.
Give Caroline a hug...

I could always use help against those two.
And I'll give Caroline that hug whenever she stops playing CoH.

You sillies should know better than to ever count me out.
Posted by Deathstroke Lad on :
Wasn't me counting you out Kippers. It was those two young upstarts. Think the world is theirs.
Posted by MLLASH on :
Hey, look, ya'll!! Mine's the biggest!!! That space-rawks!!
D'oh... what could Scooter's "reasons" have possibly been to "let me" pass him...?
I thought I passed him for 2 primary reasons:
a) The TITANS crossover elicited an assload of posts from me he first couple of days
and
b) Scooter's illness kept him off the boards so long
But is there another, more ominous reason...?
Posted by Deathstroke Lad on :
Bwaaa-haaaa-haaaa.
Posted by MLLASH on :
I'm frightnened!
Posted by Kid Prime on :
It's a trap!
Posted by Deathstroke Lad on :
Good. Being frightened shows you are intelligent. I hate quarry that isn't scared. Makes the hunt more fun. Posted by Elusion Girl on :
Well sass my frass! Posted by HighPriestessViviane on :
Everyone should be scared, there was "Bwa" before his "haaa."

Actually, if Giffen's 80s run of Justice League taught us nothing else... and it didn't... it's that the standard EVIL laugh always begins with "Nya" instead of "Bwah"....
Posted by Loser Logan on :
I've slowed down quite a bit over the past two weeks or so. At this rate I'll never be a Top Five Poster. *sigh*
Posted by CM3 Vee on :
If these storms would leave me alone I might stand a chance to hold onto my place on this list. Congrats EDE! Now I have to watch out for STU who is right behind me!
Of course EDE hasn't solidified hi lead yet! Posted by CM3 Vee on :

Er... I mean, I'm not responsible for any calamities preventing you from posting at all...
BTW, I think your powers need a slight readjustment. Yesterday's natural disater (earthquake) missed me. And that volcano you've got brewing for an eruption is a bit far away as well! Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
Darn lack of control over powers!

I just want you all to know I am totally biding my time before my big push. Posted by Loser Lad on :
Me too...

It's on. Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
I'm looking upwards, not over my shoulder. You're STU and Vee's problem, not mine, Kippers.
Posted by Kid Prime on :
All things come to those who wait, my dear boy.
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
One thing's for certain: Kid Prime will always be the fifth poster to reach 1000 posts.

I remember way back when I only had 7000 posts...

The demands of posting are interfering with my TV-watching, comics-reading, and lollygagging!

I am multitasking! I'm posting under several different IDs. Posted by Deathstroke Lad on :
If we counted Alt's, Lash would have been a Time Trapper multiple times over by now. Posted by STU on :
We all know Gary's the Time Trapper around here!
As well as most of the alts!
Including ME! Posted by Deathstroke Lad on :
I forgot that I'm Gary as well. That's a sure sign of the dementia getting worse, isn't it?

Back in the day, Portfolio Boy used to keep a running list of the Top 40 Posters. Might be time to revive that tradition.
Posted by Stealth on :
Top 40. Yeeeessss. More posters for my wall. Posted by He Who Wanders on :
Maybe we ought to make it the Top 50 so No. 42 can hang on the wall next to us. Posted by cleome on :

Cereal killers?

Posted by Kent Shakespeare on :
It made me think of the Cereal Convention in Sandman, a cover for serial killers to schmooze.
Posted by Stealth on :
Two Vertigo references in one night! Say, Kent, have you checked the Vertigo thread in Dr. Gym'll's lately? A certain someone would love to know your thoughts on Hellblazer.
Posted by Kent Shakespeare on :
thanks! I've been a JC fan since Swamp Thing #37.
Posted by LardLad on :
Jesus was in ST 37?!? Guess Veitch didn't have Moore's clout when he wanted the big JC to show up later!
(yes, I'm kidding)
Posted by Kent Shakespeare on :
actually, I remember one letter column person arguing John C, as presented in American Gothic, was an incarnation of Jesus. I'm sure he changed his mind if he read the series to follow.
Posted by LardLad on :
I suppose they argued the "H" that is often used as Jesus's middle initial when people swear stood for "Hellblazer"?
Posted by Kent Shakespeare on :
ha! no, the letter, as I recall, was well before the Hellblazer series began.
Posted by LardLad on :
Well, I know that, Kent, but--aw screw it! It wasn't that good of a joke anyway! Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
