Scottes Vs. Belmondo....

[CyberDyneSystems]

Scottes ....5499

Belmondo .5496

Now that's close,. but looks like Scottes finally grabbed the lead ;)

[Scottes]

Actually I had a much larger lead a while ago, but I've been too darn busy at work and home.

I'm slacking, I know.

I actually expect Tom to get #3 again soon, and then by next weekend I'll take it back, and so on until work slows down enough to give me time to post.

I will, however, beat him to 6,000.

[Belmondo]

Nah. I've already conceded #3 to Scottes. This is just a fluke and not the harbinger of any long-term trend. If I hadn't posted the goofy picture of the coffee mug, he'd still be way ahead.

Besides, he's younger and can type faster.

[Bruce Hamilton]

Is this a race to see who's next to 10K and SuperMod status? :lol:

[Belmondo]

Okay. I just moved back into third, but only for the moment.

Scottes......

Quit slacking.

[Scottes]

Okay. I just moved back into third, but only for the moment.
See what I mean?

Scottes......

Quit slacking.
It's one of my inate skills. I'm not sure it's in me to quit.

Marie is less than 800 posts from 10K,.. No chance anyone could overtake her,.. (cept me,.. but that was a few months back ;) )

[Tom W]

They're neck-in-neck. Perhaps a prize will entice one to pull ahead.

[Belmondo]

No, no, NNOOOOOO! There's precious little useful content coming out of what we're posintg now. Don't encourage us!!

Does Marie get "Super Smilies" status when she hit's 10K or 100K similies, whichever comes first?

[Ikinaa]

No, no, NNOOOOOO! There's precious little useful content coming out of what we're posintg now. Don't encourage us!!

I hope that from now on, no one wonders any more how certain people reach 10K posts... :lol:

[Scottes]

Neither Tom nor I have ever wondered how we manage to post so much. Both of us fully agree that short, content-free posts will quickly drive up the post count.

Besides, chicks dig large post counts. :lol:

Hey Tom,
You going for 6000 posts?:)

Whoops, Tom's 10 ahead. Time for some useless posts.

Oops. Double-post. Stupid software.

Do either of you have the time

Who is Count Post? Any relation to Count Dracula?

[Belmondo]

Do either of you have the time

It's 8:25, Pacific Time

[Belmondo]

It's 8:25, Pacific Time

No, I'm sorry. It's 8:26

[Scottes]

Isn't Count Post the guy who invented Count Chocula cereal?

[Tom W]

I'm willing to donate half of my posts to the highest bidder. $500 minimum bid.

Do I hear $510??

[Tom W]

Isn't Count Post the guy who invented Count Chocula cereal?

Is he married to Markie Post?

$510 already? Who made the $500 bid?

[Tom W]

$500 is the reserve!

[Tom W]

BTW, that sounded a bit like a bid.

510 to Leo - do I hear 520.... :)

[IanD]

520 what?:confused::confused:

[PacAce]

520 what?:confused::confused:
Hey <raises arm up to get someone's attention>, I think that was a bid, too.

[Tom W]

$520 to Ian D - do I hear 530??

You're off the hook, Leo. For now. You raised your arm when I wasn't looking.

[Tom W]

That's US dollars, Ian. Though I may change that request soon....

[IanD]

That's US dollars, Ian. Though I may change that request soon....
US dollars? Good lord that is.......wait a minute.....520 x 6.1 - 3.43 +1.234 -the time of day = ..hold on, that ain't right...brb.......

[Belmondo]

I just got home and fired up the laptop. I see I've missed a very unusual conversation.

Would someone please summarize for me?

[Tom W]

Would someone please summarize for me?

That sounded like a bid - Do I hear $540.

Oh, you said summarize.

Sorry, Tennessee humor.... :)

[robertwgross]

Somebody with not enough to do has been exercising their keyboard.

Haven't you guys got something constructive to do? Go shoot some photos, maybe?

---Bob Gross---

[Scottes]

Sorry I missed all this - I spent the afternoon on another forum complaining about it's members.

Now that I'm back - 540!

You two men go that away, the rest of you men follow me...........................:p:)
550!

[Tom W]

Auction ends at midnight - but I'm not saying what day or what time zone!

Ian has top bid at $550!

[Belmondo]

Don't trust him. He's going to try to pay with $550 worth of Op/Tech neck straps.

He's a tricky guy.

[Tom W]

Don't trust him. He's going to try to pay with $550 worth of Op/Tech neck straps.

He's a tricky guy.

Fear not - I'll sell them on the Nikonian's web site to all the new 350D/RebXT buyers. :)

[IanD]

550? Hell, that's the model of my flash. Who asked me which Speedlite I had?
Thanks God I didn't say 580!

[Tom W]

580!!
Do I hear 590??
:D

[ssim]

Given the power of attorney that I have for Ian he will be in for 650

[Tom W]

$650 it is!
Do I hear $660?
:D

[pradeep1]

You guys are going to all hit 10,000 by keeping this thread going. :p

[CyberDyneSystems]

What Forum?

Enquiring minds want to know! :lol:

[cmM]

Oh, dear God...
Well, let's see, if I buy Tom's half posts... well, I'm gonna close in on these 2


...Oh crap, it's past midnight, auction ended. :evil:

[thomascanty]

...Oh crap, it's past midnight, auction ended. :evil:

It isn't midnight yet over here. And he didn't say what day the auction ends... :mrgreen:

[IanD]

I just fired my "power of Attorney" guy. Geez 650..........at least the fool didn't saw 750!

[Tom W]

10,000 - Man, my posts have jumped in value faster than you can say "200 mm f/1.8".

Congratulations, Pradeep, you're the high bidder right now!

Do I hear $10,010?

[Tom W]

It isn't midnight yet over here. And he didn't say what day the auction ends... :mrgreen:

It ain't over till its over (wasn't that Yogi Berra that said that?). I'll decide when it ends. And after Pradeep's significant bid, I'd say that it will be soon. :)

C'mon, Ian - 750 isn't even close! ;)
