He did run a democracy game I think, though that and your opinion aren't necessarily mutually exclusive.

You still have yet to even approach even my PPD count.
According to some people who were keeping track (God knows why), I had over 35 posts per day for well over 2 months for a while.

Bloody hell, even War (or myself he will no doubt respond ) didn't keep up that sort of rate when he was trying to overtake Rah.

Nah... but I got into the top 10. I got around 50 votes total though this round, so if I get anywhere near that next time then I'll be in, since the top 2 had around 70.

I had 180 posts at the Paradox forums in 2 days (which included about 3 hours of posting).
I could take Ming if I really wanted to, but it's not worth sacrificing all other things in life.

I don't think it is practically possible. :stir: :stir:
Seriously, you would need 35 posts a day just to catch him in around about a year and a half.
I sincerely believe noone would have that much spamming stamina.

I don't think you could get 1000 without crossing the line from actual spam to actual blatant spam. Ming will defend his lead and it wont be hard for him to make a case with you spamming 1000 posts a week.
Besides that's over a hundred a day......I doubt you could do it for a week (let alone much longer as you would need to to catch Ming) even if you didn't get restricted. :challenge:

Naw, that kind of volume would be impossible keeping the appearence of thoughtful dialoge. Any hint of spamming doing it would probably attract the attention of the PCR police.

Nah.
I'd just post once or twice or 3 times in every every thread in every forum I visit here (about 5 or 6). If they're all on-topic, then any claims of spam would be completely falsified.
That's why I said I wasn't willing to sacrifice my life... it would be a challenge.

I don't think you could keep it up for long, I really don't, even if you avoid attention from the mods.
Whilst at home after Christmas I made 150 or so posts in a week and that was heavy posting. What you propose is nearly posting that much every day, for week after week after week.
It's not possible.

Yes, please don't do it when you should be studying.
And Announcing it would also be kinda dumb. Especially since I'm one of those PCR police. And at any given time I can monitor what threads you're reading and what threads you're posting to.

If they're on-topic then I can say anything relationed to this discussion was posted by my roomate.
Besides, at the rate I'd be going, even a 15% PCR wouldn't make a dent in my effort.

Challenges work both ways
We're given a lot of leeway here.

Spam is in the eyes of the beholder And intent is good enough to nail you.
Oh, and I've given out FAR higher PCR's than 15%
100% has been done to MANY people
Trust me when I say that if you started posting at that kind of level, you would be nailed to the wall.

If you post 1000 times in any week then sure you should be committed.
The men in white coats are watching.

I think commited community members are great...
I think spammers should get PCR's to teach them not to spam
