Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board Legion World HOT 100 of the Month -- 2012 edition

To answer Ex's question, I went back to the beginning of the HOT 100 (January 2011) and counted all the zero posters. The results are surprising:

2011:
Jan--35
Feb--39
Mar--36
Apr--39
May--43
Jun--45
Jul--43
Aug--41
Sep--45
Oct--43
Nov--35
Dec--48

2012:
Jan--40
Feb--40
Mar--48
Apr--47
May--44
Jun--46
Jul--42
Aug--44
Sep--47
Oct--45
Nov--44

So, the two months with the greatest number of active posters were January and November 2011, each of which had only 35 zero posters. The number of zero posters seems to have steadily risen. The overall average of zero posters for these 23 months is 40.8.

Ohmygod! Gramps has like said I'm gonna like be the Quank Family Time Trapper! If I keep this up and he doesn't like find all the other passwords that like is.

Where the heck has CJ Taylor been?

Or Monkey-Eater Lad?

Or Cali?

Or Scooter?

Or Dean?

And Vu! Jeez, one post?

So many once stalwart Legion Worlders that barely have stopped by in a long, long time!

And what the heck is up with this?

I mean, he's clearly still here since the whole site hasn't exploded or anything, but...

I miss Nighty ...

I know I have spoken with him a few times over the last month...so he has been on here. Just not posting.

Gary's always around, watching, waiting for the chance to bring down the Ban Hammer on Pov.

Oh wait... that was Scott.

But Gary's around.

Wow! Another month with 100+ posts for me? Felt like I didn't even do 50 last month! WEIRD!

Compare March and April 2011 to March and April 2012. Whoa, there are some big differences there...

w00t! I'm the new 52!

(This doesn't mean I have to start wearing clothes with like 100 different seams, does it?)

No, but it does mean you get rebooted every few years.

Ahh, after a long period of sporatic posting I've finally had a post filled month

Reboot should be a Time Trapper any minute now...if not already.

So this is what it's like to be in the Top 40. When does the pay raise kick in?

LT, the higher you go the harder it is to keep climbing

Ibby makes climbing look so effortless.

Pay raise? The prestige isn't enough?

Unfortunately, with the economy the way it is, Legion World just isn't doing well enough financially to allow for pay increases for posters this year.

If you have any questions, I'll be on the new yacht I just bought with my top five poster bonus.

Since I had to take a pay cut due to cleome passing me, I'll have to lay off some poor unfortunate souls near the bottom of the list. But don't worry. I hear Wal-Mart is hiring.

I was just going to ask for a post redistribution ... c'mon EDE ... I could be a Time Trapper too with a mere 4000 of your posts!!!

Maybe the lower echelons of the HOT 100 should unionize and see if we can't at least get one yacht for all of us.

Hey, I voted for PB&J because they promised lifetime Congressional benefits to the Top 40 Posters!

(Didn't they? Or was it those corporate PAC commercials?)

Actually it was the top .004% of posters.

Alas, I have been suckered into running in the rat race. Won't someone come over and awaken my entrepreneurial spirit?

Quislet, Esq. better be good to his hair so he can live off its generous lifetime salary.

Best post ever.
