I'm the third listing on google for Oerdin. The other two are entries for googlism which say:

My civ2 website is ranked #52 out of 314,000 hits for "mercator". I think that's pretty good, considering everything seems to be called mercator.

I gave up looking for the first appearance of Apolyton after 640 hits.

If I add "civilization" 8 of the 10 first hits relate to my website, the first 2 actually being my website and the 3rd an old location of it.

I came up number one. Also this popped up.

http://www.geocities.com/rrakanychan...lo_history.htm

A write up about the old Apolyton Nation or something.

Quote:
The basis of the economy was never really in doubt. A few months before on Apolyton, a group of people, who were obsessed with their post count there, created a unit, the @, which represented the post. @’S became the basic Apolyton currency unit. People were given @s by the government based on their post count at Apolyton. The ways to spend these were few and far between. There were a couple of the ever-popular fictional-product stores; however, the most popular business was Makeo's Casino. In this, you could bet @s on the outcome of sporting events or on whom the moderators would ban next from Apolyton. Makeo became extremely rich through this.
Quote:
The major political event of this period was the Sort Of Coup on or around August 15th or so. Evan von Christoph had grown increasingly paranoid about plots to overthrow him. He had created a Secret Police, and appointed Makeo the leader, which was somewhat comical, as he was horrible at secrecy and kept on bragging that he was head of the Secret Police when technically no one was supposed to know it existed. On the 15th, or whenever it was, Evan's paranoia reached a climax, and he decided that either Giant Squid or an unknown faction within the country was about to overthrow him.

I only looked on the first two pages of Google search results for my username.

The first one definitely is relevant . . . it takes you to an article that the webmasters of Apolyton put on, which I wrote -- what, over a year ago?

www.apolyton.net/forums/Forum6/HTML/002299.html




The second one pointed to a gay porno site.



But I'm assuming one of the rules on Apolyton is that you can't provide links to porno sites?

Woo! My page has got to #1 on Google. I knew having it as the heading for every page would count for something. And apart from results #3 and #4, I'm the whole of the first page, most of the second, scattering of the third...

Quit after ~150. Apparently a lot of people want to "flug" or "fluge" me, and I don't care to find out why.

Wow, out of all of those gazillion Locuti out there, I was ranked #16 (First Apolyton link at #43, with one or two more non-Apolyton links in between.)

Not sure whether to proud or ashamed...
