Okay, so the problem is that if we represent this data as a pie chart, the outcome is still the same. Phil does really well with the meat and tomato sauce down swing, but once Ralph starts with the mince it gets difficult. Phil makes a good effort with the Melton Mowbray, but when Ralph brings out the apple it's all over bar the lemon meringue.

This is a graph of Ralph's lead over Phil using Phil's tables going back three years. The lower the blue line goes, the closer Phil gets to Ralph. The higher it goes, Ralph pulls away. Phil was on course through the middle of 2016 to catch up with Ralph around the start of 2018, but then Ralph begins to increase his posting average, and now look! In August 2016 Phil was only 4300 posts away, but at the start of this month Ralph had extended his lead to 7000! This may well coincide with one of the periods when Ralph was having an internet break.

I think what this really tells us is that Ralph spammed us with an almighty number of crap records last year. A better study would be to evaluate the quality of posts... He does post a pile of b0!!0cks at times

Millimeters are relevant to toy use! A Trip to Trumpton by Urban Hype is not!

You would not believe how important making pie charts becomes when you're supposed to be planning lessons.

I kinda want to see a graph for the top ten posters now.

You would, would you.
I was about to make a graph of the top ten best selling posters of all time, but as number one features Farah Fawcett's nipples, and number two that tennis girl scratching her arse, I think I will not.

Actually I feel a bit shown up by Ralph, can you downgrade his bar so mine looks even better in comparison?

Your bar is now a shining example of 12th Century Italian bell tower architecture and is twice as big as Ralph's blue lump. So shush.

So this was Jan 2013, which was five years after this version of the boards started? Shockprowl on 7000. Six years after that you'd think, 14 or 15 thousand would be about right? Noooo.... 10000 more than that. As we lost this, along with the other threads. 1 - The Doctor 27, 260 2 - Philip Ayres 17,870 3 - Andrew Turnbull 11,823 4 - Legios 7,938 5 - Shockprowl 6,941 6 - Blueshift 6,781 7 - Hero 5,972 8 - martinm 4,685 9 - bogatan 4,485 10 - zudobug 4,456

So, I'm at about a thousand posts a year. That's kinda lots, and not very many all at the same time.

1K per year is aprox 20 per week or 3 a day

HOW MUCH HAVE I POSTED TODAY???! IS IT ABOVE AVERAGE OR NOT?
I could keep a record every day and see where I tail off posting. I could!
But no... madness lies this way...
