Lindsay's 1,000th post?? Prize up for grabs

[icarus]

Sorry, I'm still not going to pad my posting count. If I did that, I'd be up to 2,000 by now :roll: .

Good for you, Lindsay; you're a scholar and a gentleman. Do, please, take your time!

Put us out of our misery...please!

I was put out of my 'misery' last night; but luckily, at the time, I was sitting in Syd Int J lounge shortly after a few compensatoray HP's. 8)

An update on who's been voted off the island

6 down, 22 left with a chance. Even far flung still has a chance.

At current pace this thread may reach 1,000 posts before Lindsay does. :roll:

Come on Lindsay. Put everyone out of their misery.

Does anyone know Lindsay's password :?: :twisted:

 

[QF WP]

Well, into the final straight now...but with a busy 1/2 day ahead and a long lunch at the Qld Cricketers Club (from which I'm not returning to work).....looks like there will be some more "voted off the island" later.

Nobody knows my password, JohnK....not even Mrs LW.

The AFF 1000 Post Handicap Race Call on 2KY...

"....and they're coming into the final straight in the AFF 1,000 posts race. Lindsay Wilson has been in the lead for the entire race, but what's this?!! Nelly Mobbs is making a late charge down the home straight and at 990 posts to 984, it's anyone's guess as to who will win!"

Stay tuned for further updates :wink:

 

[infoworks]

1 Dec is definitely looking "out of the money" at this stage!

The race is fixed.

There will be a stewards inquiry at the conclusion of the race.

It's not fixed...It's using the same rules that have allowed 2 F1 drivers in same team to decide on their results

JohnK, the race is definitely not fixed, but believe what you like as I can't stop you :roll: - if I have something to share, I'll do so if it's worthwhile and I believe it will help others. I don't care what others think about me, I'm confident in my own self worth.

As I said previously, I could simply post garbage for the sake of padding my posting count (like over on Flyertalk on the OMNI Forum), but I'm not about doing that.

You know you can see how many he is up to by just clicking on the Memberlist icon at the top of the page

or simply looking next to any of my posts in any thread or Forum here..the counter is updated against all previous posts

Lindsay what I believe is irrelevant. I don't think your integrity has ever been questioned.

Quite a few people on this thread have jokingly posted things to try to get you to pad your post count. I think that is about as far as it goes.

[... - if I have something to share, I'll do so if it's worthwhile and I believe it will help others. I don't care what others think about me, I'm confident in my own self worth.:

As for helping people there is really no need for anyone to question that as the constant feedback received is testimony to your willingness to assist at every opportunity.

So hurry up and get to 1,000.

I predict that the winner will come from this group of individuals
...and I'm one of them, although a bit of a long shot I think

Tough call. Lindsay is only 7 posts away from 1,000.

I think it is between

• 23 October 09.33pm brisbull
  29 October 11.00pm danielh

Just depends who is closer.

I think you may be right.

But where has teh challenger NM gone?? Don't tell me he's broken down in the home straight after putting up such a charge to almost catch up to LW.

 

[JohnK]

Just a guess and now only 5 posts away.

This is not a two horse race but rather a non-race.

I think they are both very valuable on this board and I couldn't give two hoots who gets to 1,000 posts first. It is just a gimmick to keep the natives amused. Obviously NM, as stated earlier, would like Lindsay to get to 1,000 first for sentimental reasons.

I think they are both valuable. However, it does demonstrate the 'burstiness' of people posting. Some days there are many posts, other days no so many, so people don't post a flat 3.1415926536 posts every day.
