Looking at that, because of my new ex-studenty-type status, next year I won't have a pretty line to call my own on next year's Top 10 graph. Eeeek!
Excellent stuff, Klaas!

Wow, thanks again Klaas! I'm glad you didn't add the Just Conversation bits and pieces. I wonder what I was asking so many annoying questions about in March. 🙂 That was a close one John! You're a lot more valuable though...most of your posts are answers to other people's questions.
It's interesting to see where in the year I tried to sort out my priorities and do more actual unicycling. That's one of my new years resolutions.
Any record of how many people post via both Newsgroup and Forums? If you consider both Nathan Hoover & nathan he has 266 posts and would be #36.

*Thanks for another thorough job, Klaas. I'm slimming down. I need to buy new posting pants. *
You can still where the same pants Greg, you just need to do some padding.😄

Yes, 25th place! My goal this year is to be in the top, say, 15 or 20. :P That must have been some hard work. Good job, Klaas!

I find this really interesting... [image: "]http://www.xs4all.nl/~klaasbil/weekday_2003.gif] We go out and unicycle on the weekends and then talk about our experiences on the monday. It's good to see we generally have our priorities right. 🙂 And by thursday and friday we're all bogged down with work until the weekend.
Seeing myself on the the same list with so many luminaries makes me immediately regret the time I spent in Most Replies. Yes, I padded---but I never STUFFED. :p
For penance, I'm going to go hit Most Views a few thousand times and not say a word. Quiet as a little nursie mouse...
would the stuff in most replies, or Just Conversation for that matter, be counted since it can not be accessed by the news group Klaas got the numbers from? because i have over 200 posts but most of them are in JC and i am not on the list.

Most replies 2 was the one that got stuffed and well deserved to be locked. The original MR has turned out to be good convo and less random comments about nothing. There seems to be less stress on getting the most replies out of it; now it is just a good place to have random conversation about topics that don't deserve their own thread. There is way less padding going on there than you think; it's now conversation for the sake of conversation, not for the sake of high postcounts. Yes, I am defending the MR thread. That's all I've got for it though.🙂 In my opinion, the people with the high postcounts should spend more time out on their uni and less time in here.😉
If I don't go inactive for a month here and there, I think I'll probably move up in the rankings this year. Of course, I will be getting a job and possibly a wife this year, so who knows what will happen...
