Meant to mark quadruple 7s, but could not shut up long enough. Need a thread to mark all 8s, which at my current rate, should be within the week.

Think I'd better post here since I was asking after such a thread in the Styx!
The (maybe not so) grand total of 700 posts since Oct 09. Now if there was a counter for posts read I would score much more highly!
The way I'm going I suspect a large percentage of the next hundred are going to be taken up with everlasting sentences and being offensive in the Circus.....

Naught wrong with that. How you do expect the august host of All Saints has gathered at least 20,000 posts? ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

*ahem* I mean, um, why didn't you take the effort to notice it earlier? I swear, some people, have to do everything for them, can't even look themselves—the nerve! I, for one, am not amused!

Bugger! Meant to mark 8000. Did the maths and the average of 4.23 seemed a bit low, so I checked my recent posts and found it to be over 16 per day! Somebody please check, I think I might be mousethief or Wodders sockpuppet. ![[Ultra confused]](graemlins/confused2.gif)

In honour of Pi day, 3.14 (March 14) although I am a day late. I have 4524 posts in 4 years since I was welcomed to the boat. That is 3.14 posts per day from my just now calculation, if all months are 30 days. So I thought that was worth commemorating, even if my math is questionable.
