This post is 14142, but merely noticing the palindromic glory of 14141 in my post count was such a soothing balm as to be comical. And it is an additive prime as well.

I can quite understand that, LB. I realised a wee while ago that I'd gone haring past 18,000 without noticing.

Since Doubthink is, regrettably, no longer posting, you will soon be back on the first page. Given the rest of the crew and passengers on the first page, I think I shall be spared the ignominy of moving there. Page 2 is bad enough.
tangent/ Not sure how the posting 120 sec delay is monitored. mousethief must have special dispensation. Or, perhaps, multiple browsers under different IPs. Or something.

I was happy to see that she did post a couple of times this past weekend. I hope that means she'll be back with us more often.

Noticed I missed 15651. I've missed loads, but anticipated that one and blew right past it. I occasionally check my posting rate and decided to compare it to a truly prolific poster. I almost had a heart attack when his total number and rate was the same as mine. Then I realised I had too many windows open and took the figures from the wrong one. My still too high rate is half of his. There have been small bursts, but my overall rate is 5 a day.

Bumping this up in the realisation that I am unlikely to reach the magic 10,000 before the current Ship reaches its final destination.
Considering I've been here since ... oh, since God was a boy - I think I've been remarkably restrained, don't you?

I’m the bottom left of your last post, right above the red Logged, it says Posts: 5831. That is your post count number. At least at the time of this writing. Don’t look at mine, it is far too high. I’m just glad it doesn’t say Relevant Posts... [ 15. December 2017, 13:57: Message edited by: lilBuddha ]

I'd been looking forward to 20,000 (what a full and active life I have!), but I don't think even at my most verbose I'd make it before the re-launch.
Maybe I should start playing all the games in the Circus - that doesn't half rack up your post-count ...

We shall all be equal, if for but a moment. Anyone care to run a book on how many posts mousethief will have made before the new Ship finishes her shakedown cruise? I'm betting a four digit count before the drydock fills enough to float her keel...
