Hey, Admin Pete ! I am so up for the challenge, I triple dog dare you to match me, 10 threads and 100 posts not counting anything in this thread. Yes, I skipped the dare hierarchy, such things are meant to be skipped by men. Now there are a few that exceed this every month I'm looking at you The Perilous Dreamer , mao , El Borak , and hengest . There are several other people, but they have not been active of late. Everyone else, if you have never posted at all, then introduce yourself in the introduction thread. Everyone else, make at least one post this month and a thread if you are ambitious. If you have over 100 posts to your name then make two posts this month and a thread. Page views, whether you log in or not read as many posts as you have time to. One more thing Admin, we need a wager, but how will we make a wager when we both want to break the records. Must think on it. Anyone, go ahead and chime in with suggestions for a bet we two can make. Hmmm, 100 posts I can do that, 10 threads now you're going to make me work. I will give it a shot. Oh and I started the day at 271. Alright, go xizallian! |

You all are an ambitious lot. I will throw in a feel posts, but committing to 100 posts, let alone 10 threads is too much for me. I am trying to commit to doing my laundry tomorrow.

So our newish member Death Even XIII has issued us a challenge a dare in fact, but not just any dare, he called out a triple dog dare! Yeah, skipped the who hierarchy of dares and when straight for the jugular. Here is what he said ( ruinsofmurkhill.proboards.com/post/51010) Well now in theory that sounds all well and good, but lets take a look at it. We have 262 members who have posted at least once. So 262 members x 20 posts each would be 5240 posts. However in any given month only about 25 people post and recently only about 40 some members login each month. So for 25 people to get to 3000 posts that would be 120 posts each or 4 per day. Now if we could get 100 people to each post once per day we would be there. If 262 people posts one thread each that would be 262 threads for the month, but for 25 people that would be 10 and a half threads or roughly one every three days with a second one a couple of times. With 100 people it would be just over two and a half threads each for the month. Now if we had that much activity we would probably go well over on the page views too. So Death Even XIII , I am up for the challenge, but are you? So since this is your idea, you need to lead by example. So I triple dog dare you to create at least 10 threads this month and at least 100 more posts for the month starting now, so are you up for the challenge? Everyone else, what you do is up to you, but if you participate, help me hold Death Even XIII accountable to lead the way. Well Death Even XIII It is all well and good to throw out a challenge like this ( ruinsofmurkhill.proboards.com/post/51010) but then you have to convince a lot of other people to join you and you yourself, need to show up everyday to do the work. Now all I committed to do was to stay ahead of mao and I will likely beat the 181 threads this month by myself and maybe even hit 1,000 posts for the month, but you are going to need to be on here everyday if we get close to the 150,287 page views or 3,000 posts, because the Admin Pete tells me we are way behind being on target to touch either of those numbers and the rest of you have to get 2,000 posts even if I get 1,000 by myself. So Death Even XIII , you threw it out and now you need to come help see it through.  I'm all in, are you? BTW for me to get 1,000 posts that is 33.33 per day and I am at just over 38 per day 7 days in and I have started 60 threads. So show me what you are made of.  |

It would be different if we had 100 active posters, but really there are only a few. |

I was a bit hasty in throwing this out being so new to the board and not realizing the real activity level of the average member. So I will endeavor to exert myself the rest of this month and give you as much help as I can. One of the things I will do is help you down in Catacomb 74. That is quite a project so I want to contribute what I can to it. |

It was a squeaker, but I am going to rule that you made it under the wire. But those last few posts, I expect you to go back and edit and flesh them out more. |

I accept the challenge, given I only made four posts before today, it won't take much for me to be in new territory. |

Great question. Hi guys, I am here, sorry to have dropped the ball. So not counting this post we are at Total Threads: 6,799 and Total Posts: 69,663 before this post is made. So we need 201 Threads to get to 7,000 and 337 Posts to get to 70,000 by 8PM (per the Admin status thread) on September 30th. So we have, checks time, 46.5 hours to get this done and get there. I am going to try to do my part over the next two days. How about all of you? Who will step up and help us get there? |

This need at least a dozen people doing the work and I see Death Even XIII and dilvish and mao have definitely put in the work. I am trying to get some done, but still a lot to go. |
