...have managed the 'ton up' since our relaunch during the Summer. Well done to all

I'd particularly like to thank- our tech guru Snaky Ken; the Toronto guys for travel tips (next year I hope); all cryptic cluesmiths; the FreeStaters for winding me up*; Steve Smith aka the New Bradman; and of course the Scottish, Irish and Welsh Leagues for proving that you can crash out of Europe in a couple of weeks. A pleasant Shinner Yule Log to yis all

* as proof of the Season, veteran poster Calvert sends greets from Lanzarote where he is getting blocked with wee Deezer. The big man especially asked me to pass on that he agrees with Berba about Mourinho...

Are the numbers quoted the poster's bank account numbers or has Ton Ton really posted 72500 times every day since the 1st July? Good going if true, chapeau.

[Various Artist]

You're probably being entirely facetious, AS, but in case you're genuinely struggling like I was for a minute there to make sense of DG's list, I think the last three digits are the post-relaunch tallies, the preceding 3 to 5 digits being the poster's overall tally. But I wouldn't put it past some enterprising correspondents to have posted 12 million times since July.

[Duncan Gardner]

First figure is total posts since the last relaunch just before Euro 2008

It appears I have no idea what 'ton up' means.

[Snake Plissken]

100 or more.

[Incandenza]

Damn, I've really dropped off. Berbaslug not in the top 20 as well?

[Kevin S]

I have a feeling I'm up there with the likes of Gero and the bear...

[The Awesome Berbaslug!!!]

I blame that scum cunt mourinho. He gives me a pain in my heart.

[ad hoc]

Damn, I've really dropped off. Berbaslug not in the top 20 as well?

Bear in mind it's number of posts not number of words.

[Various Artist]

Yeah, I was just scraping my jaw off the floor at the notion I've posted more than Berba since July, when it occurred to me that more different posts doesn't equate to more overall verbiage!

I've also posted more frequently than Alex, but by the same token I imagine he's written about 4 million words in the European Cup Trivia thread (and about 12 anywhere else) in that time.

I like that I was on 666 since the relaunch at the point when you tallied us up by the way, DG.

[WOM]

Remarkably, Wyatt Earp remains firmly in the top 10 for total post count, despite flouncing over 4 years ago.

[Various Artist]

I hope everyone's got Whole Lotta Love or similar Top of the Pops music going around their heads now while we wait for the Top 20 rundown to start...

[Snake Plissken]

I should start re-running the post count indexing scripts and randomly deleting things just to bugger things up. #banter

[Diable Rouge]

IIRC, I don't think he flounced so much as strategically withdrew. More February 15, 1989 than May 21, 1940.

Can't believe I've racked up 130 posts since the migration. That's an awful lot of crap.

Was that the day the last Soviet soldier left Afghanistan?

[hobbes]

I'd like to thank mah waafe, mah fahmleee, mah agent and gahd for this 'ahnah

[WOM]

Damn, I've really dropped off. Berbaslug not in the top 20 as well?

Wahey...you're 45. Like Trump!

[WOM]

This is like waiting for Best Picture and the clock is already rounding midnight.

[caja-dglh]

If best picture were chosen by having the biggest advertising budget rather than quality of the production, you might be right.

Though UA will win out which is a fair result.

[hobbes]

My money's on Tubby. He's been putting in the hours talking bollocks on all the political threads. Real dedication to the art.

[Fussbudget]

I hope everyone's got Whole Lotta Love or similar Top of the Pops music going around their heads now while we wait for the Top 20 rundown to start...

Your post has made me realise that I've been doing exactly that.

Excited to have scraped into the bubbling under chart. If we're doing predictions, top spot will be Tubby or Spoony.
