Last email request had two questions - second about sorting ratings. Thought I'd covered both. Was it something else?
The trailblazer query wouldn't be too hard to write - show you what their first posting after the limit was once you 'noticed' they were past. Still manual though.
I wondered about tying names to something like the periodic table of elements. Change every 100 to the 100* element numer. Something appealing about labeling him Bohrium - the symbol for which is "coincidentally" BH.
Thanks for the link, oh Master Kilt - now lowly bookworm knows she has many, many posts to go before name change occurs (sob!) but this spurs her to do so in as short a time as possible: hiding in this hole is NOT fun.
btw: I think 'post prostitute' excellent if Brad is first (only?) to achieve this rank

You guys into that "Left Behind" stuff? Bet you root for the AC, huh.

"Left Behind"? Nope (not me, at least) I'm rather agnostic in expression, though I do find religion a terribly interesting subject....

Playing tennis with aunflin - bouncing between fora, racking up posts - halfway out of bookworm - YES !

mrdude must be right as he is much higher rank

/me watches ECM make an attempt on the all-time 1-day IBDoF post count record.
ECM ... I'd give up if I were you. The 1-day record is probably beyond reach, courtesy of an all-night scream-fest by our very own BKM, who scored 100+ posts in a single night, because of a DNS synch error ... he was stuck all alone in a deserted and obsolete clone of the IBDOF.
