I'm kinda doubting that... your daily postage is generally higher then mine. But that doesn't mean I won't try :wink:

Oh you're both very regular posters. :D

My current prediction (based on the last 30 days) for this conjunction is The 4th of July 2010, when both of you have 13,360 posts. Ian will have 22,910; the board 213,741 in total with 17,060 users (and 2417 for MediumRare).

Your predictions are kinda scary :o

I honestly thought that Dodecahedron was posting more per day then I was!

The idea of Ian having ~23k in posts is pretty scary too! :P

Tsk, Tsk. That's not a very nice thing to say about a guy who's getting married. :o (*)

You could go after dhc014 (get him by 23 Apr. 2006) or if you prefer a moving target (dhc104 hasn't posted in over 9 months), there's spaz- but that'll take till 24 Aug. 2007.

And of course, you've got me breathing down your neck. :wink:

What?!? :o I still need to be watching my back? But you and dodecahedron have already surpassed me. Or are you referring to aviationwiz?

On the other hand, if I were to continue posting like the little burst of posts I made today, then maybe it is you who is the target... 8)

Yeah, don't think I haven't noticed how you ALL OF A SUDDEN return from being away for so long.... *JUST* when I've overtaken you...

But be warned... I won't be so easily defeated :wink:

I'm going to buy MacroScheduler or QuicKeys and code it to post every 20 seconds with random sections of Wikipedia and blow everybody away! :P

No no no.... we aren't starting the "your posts are better then my posts" thing again are we?

When you talk as much as *I* do, you're bound to get things right from time to time... you speak infrequently yes, but with great incite.
