...And I'd just like to point out that the proof is right there: See that little "first message" link??? My addiction to LT is all your fault, Kerian!!! (...and by the way, did I ever say thanks??)

(Edited to add - I just realized that my words/message is pretty much twice as high as you guys....I'm starting to think I talk too much....)

LOL! Aren't you so glad, el? Love you! And yes, you said thanks! First word after "Hi Kerian." *waves to el* Hehe. :)

*waves back* And you're on my You and None Other list too because we're the only two LT users that have cataloged Patrick Carman's Stargazer. *hugs* :)

El, I have so many short posts! :P~~~ Just look at how many messages I have. I am indeed a LT addict. ;)

Welllll....I saw you added it, and was all excited to add it to my wishlist! :) *hugs back*

#7 aglaia:
Great job on finding the right place to post your message! I asked in book talk and was afraid soemone got irritated at me for not going to that group first. :)

Well, my numbers are a little skewed because I tend to do a lot of book discussion stuff on the Early Reviewers Thread and also I've written some massively long messages for the Books Compared group (the last thread I started there had a 500+ word message).

I just realized too that the reason February '08 was my highest posting month because I got two early reviewer books in January and was talking about them a lot in multiple threads and groups.

#7 - Name That Book is such a fun group! I don't usually post there but I love reading the questions people have and seeing others identify their long lost/forgotten books!!

#10 el:
No wonder! That would do it. :)

I found Fly by Night thanks to the Name That Book group! I only really had it's cover to go by, and funny enough, when i got the book, it was from Australia and has a different cover. ;)

Where are my stats?

Go to your profile page. At the top you'll see a bunch of links. Click statistics then go to talk and groups (or something like that) you'll get all the above stats.

I think you put it the right way, biblio.

Ok thanx

My first message was in the "Read YA Lit" group, but the vast majority of my posts are here on HE (4,510 messages). I can tell when I joined HE, because my talk participation increased exponentially! 5 posts in June of 2007 . . . 1,002 in August of 2007! That August is still my most "wordy" month; I'm sure it's because we were all rehashing Deathly Hallows. And starting our adventures!

It's fun to look at the stats and align them with occasions/reasons. For example, the last book swap was in November, and that's how I ended up adding so many books that month.
I don't have an excuse for March, except that I've been spending more time on HE which means more TBRs and more "oh yeah, I remember that book - must try to find a copy!" scenarios :)

Some of your first messages seem to not be links....accident, or no, I wonder? ;)

#20 foggi:
That is very significant amount of posting! Woohoo for the HE! :)

#21 aglaia:
I can see a major decrease in posts when my old computer died last summer. My poor Dell!

It's interesting to see groups that i posted one message in, and never went back. Would have been about the time i first started checking out the forums on LT.

Edited to fix my mess

22- I fixed the link on my stats K. It wasn't that interesting a first message. I would much rather be able to show my first HE message.

I wish they'd let see our first message for every group we've written in! Maybe they will eventually.

Wow, I just read that entire thread, compski. It's making me want to go back and reread other threads as well. :)

I know, it has been kind of nice that Bib has brought back some old threads, too. There is always something to think about and discuss.

K, Did you see who first responded to my first message? :) I can't believe I made 50 messages that month and I didn't start until after reading DH.

First Message!

How do you hyperlink 1st message?

Click on your first message from your page and cut and paste the address, then link as usual.

hmm

Um...how do you "hyperlink as usual" if you don't know how to hyperlink?
Sorry, I'm so technically challenged. I'm still amazed at the wheel.

sorry! okay so after you copy the address you'll go and type:

First Message

except remove the spaces and replace the underscore with a space. For more information check out this thread.

What would I do w/out you biblio!!
Thank you thank you thank you!

5 edits later...It's on!!
Thank you again!!

Don't mention it AR! Now you're one of us and you'll be linking all over the place!

lol

#28 compski:
I did! :)
I am so sorry and ashamed of myself for not saying welcome to LT and the HE! I think it must have been because there were so many new faces at the time with DH newly released. Please accept my apology? *open waiting hug*

40: Oh my goodness, K! Don't even worry about it. I was just so happy to find somewhere to talk about the book.

*lowers her arms*
No hug?

It is pretty amazing to find all of this. To think so many of us had no one to discuss books with before we stumbled upon this place! How horrid!

"horrid". lol.

That's talking me back to Enid Blyton books. I always liked that word, but people would look at me askance if i used it.

heh. "askance". I love LT.

Glad I could amuse you. :)

42>(hears that kerian wants a hug rushes to hug her)

*raises arms* Come here K! I didn't notice the hug part *hugs*

Group hug!
When is a hug shunned?
Hey! "shunned", funny word...*off to other thread*

that's huge but I'll let everyone ogle it for a few before cutting it out 8) LOL

hahahaha even better I'll post it on the page I meant too! say bye bye to it!

And my parents say I go on here too much. My stats are nothing compared to yours.

I just wanted to say I like how the Off-topic group description says Go crazy here, and don't go crazy elsewhere. Oops. ;)

#52 LOL AH I don't even remember what the pic was but it came out huge and engulfed several inches of screen!
*eeeek hugs... oh well for you K... squeeze- squeeze- how does this hug thing work again LOL*

CB- Well I'm just long winded and also just post random thoughts constantly so don't be discouraged by others higher word counts... you contribute greatly 8) LOL
Let your parents read the rest of our stats LOL

Congratulations on your 1,000th post chels!!!

#53 Chels:
Woohoo for your 1,000th post! Huzzah! :)

#54 MEM:
Awww! You hugged me! I am honored! And *high five!* That is a great step. :)

In large part to my extreme verbosity in the Discussion threads as well as the waterworks and it's sister thread (I forget its name, but the one that's about the happy stuff) I am now averaging 41.11 words per message. I feel like I should try to make this message at least that long to maintain it! Okay, this one is over 50, so I can stop now, I just uped the count even more! Yikes!

#57 - hey bib, *high fives for verbose messages* I'll join you in the long message club! Except now I feel like I should try to maintain my average too. Or else I should do a series of one word posts to bring my average back down to normal temper. Hmmmm....

It's a tough call I know. Is it bad that I secretly want to get my average up over 50? I'm to blissed out on Spring to figure it out, but which will up my count more, doing one big giant post for the next discussion thread with all my notes or going chapter by chapter the way I have been? I think one big post right? Would you all kill me?

Love to share, but need direction to find them please. Since I just started posting on threads last week, there won't be much.

go to your prophile, click on statistics at the top of the page, then it's under talk and groups or something to that effect.

Kirby, go to your Profile page, click on "Statistics", and then under that "Talk and Groups". Everything you need is right there!

It's about time that I posted this.

As you can see, my post count has skyrocketed through the months. Kind of scary to think about what will happen down the road....

She's hoping that I'll actually participate sometimes. I'd say that it's . . . possible.

I think all her hopes came true! What a great first message espy!

Mandy's first message is similarish, I typed it for her while she read over my shoulder.

My messages for this month are way down! I've only done 686 this month, compared to my 1085 last month. I feel like such a slacker!

Very interesting, MrA. 69.11 is very impressive! Interesting, though, that your words for the month only went up by 8%.

Congratulations, MrA!

Both my words and my messages were down slightly for the month -- it's been a busy month, though, for me.

Must . . . post . . . more!

Good job MrA!

Is June "beat your highest messages by month count?" Because you're off to a really strong start with 56 messages for June on June 1st (your 2nd).

this is my 29th post this month, and prior to this post I had 1250 words so far for June.

>#74: no

JP

that's

just

silly.

#76-80 LOL

I did really bad last month. My second lowest post count...

this is my 57th message this month, I'm off to a great start.

Hmmm....it seems I shared my stats in the wrong place. Oh well.

I just finally saw where the monthly statistics here are mine:

May 264 posts
May wordcount 18,663

For comparison here is April:
April was 329 posts
April wordcount 12,264

By my math that makes 70.69 words per message! Very impressive Mar!

Not bad for only posting 1/2 a month, and my first month posting.

That would make me a fraction of a word ahead of MrA. I don't think that's possible.

and more posts too! the winner! yay mar!

paint me taciturn.

Ah MrA we are a hair's breadth away from each other in post count. Not even a full word.

I have fun European board game called Carcasonne in which the instructions in the case of a tie call for the winners to "rejoice in their shared victory"

I say we should rejoice in our shared long post victory.

Indeed! Let's rejoice!

*makes plans to crush Mar during the "June multiple short post" campaign*

heh heh. You are already undisputed master of the short multipost competition. That is unless anyone else wants to challenge you . . .

Oh yes and cat deserves shared victory for offering interesting discussion about Dracula. It is easier to post long posts when you have something interesting to post about.

oh, i don't know. i managed fine. I think it just depends of how much... guff... you can talk.

*choosing words carefully*

*guff* huh?

Nah I am too tired for a June challenge.

92- Why thank you, Mar. I'm touched.

My words per post didn't go up very far in May. I think I started with 17 point something, and now it's 20.8. Not bad, but it certainly doesn't compare with most members. ;)

so far I have 537 posts this month. this went up from about 180 before I started building my wall.

Wow! Too bad they don't have a "by the day" stat!

okay, my updated stats:

Thus nature balances itself.

I wonder what K's stats will be like in June...

very low, cause she's been off doing all sorts of other fun things. I'm trying to compensate for her absence by posting much more than I normally do.

And I think you're doing a very good job of it!

I didn't realize I had started that many topics...I remember when I first joined waiting to think of something clever enough to start my own thread...now i can't remember what my first one was.

Ooo fun! It's been a while since I checked my stats!

What this is telling me is that I'm inside alot more during the colder months...go figure

I was just looking at my statistics in the "legacy libraries", it's been a long time since I've looked at them, and the books I share with Hemingway kind of fascinate me:

The Nazarene by Sholem Asch
Pride and prejudice by Jane Austen
Pinocchio: The adventures of a Marionette by Carlo Collodi
The wind in the willows by Kenneth Grahame
Notre-Dame de Paris by Victor Hugo
The joy of cooking by Irma Rombauer
The elements of style by William Strunk

It's an interesting combination, no?

You and Hemingway both fascinate me, bib! :D

hmmm I Only share with one author

W. H. Auden
You share 1 out of 329 books.
The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R Tolkien

...interesting

Shareing my stats for the last time this year. I was very talkative this month.

You know what this means, don't you? Now i can only leave 424 messages each month for the rest of the year, so i get a really freaky stats chart.

...i have only 283 messages left for Feb.

make that 282. Oh oh. This could be a problem.

You'll just have to make your posts very long if you get down to the last 20 or so.

*Remembers what happened the last time MrA did long posts.*

*Quickly calculates the date he'll be down to twenty posts at his current rate.*

February 13th. Friday the 13th.

*trembles with dread*

This is a test.

Test complete. Please return to your stations.

mwahahahaha.

I sense someone is up to something to increase their post count at the same time as being speechless. ;)

Are you still trying for 424, MrA?
Better pace yourself!

MrA, doesn't it kind of ruin the magic if you do it on purpose?

magic, schmagic. If you want something in this world, you have to be prepared to cheat.

Old MrAndrew's life lessons, #27.

*hi kids!*

>#147: Good point, JP. Hmmm, i could stop posting for 9 days. That might work.

KIK!*

Cat would be thrilled if you weren't posting. Far less to catch up! But we all might be sad. Maybe.

*I almost made a typo of the typo and wrote JUJ.

gulp!

Only 25 more posts to your goal and ten days of February to go. I knew this would happen. Perhaps if you lump all of your quips in one message per day? Just reference the threads and message number your referring to. Then the last day of February you can 16 messages.

ok.

Excuse me. I am just going outside and may be some time.

I have a brilliant idea! *sunglasses on*

Why don't you post using MsDonna's account for the rest of the month? :o)

Or you could just create a new account... MrAOverflow or something like that...

Wow, it's been awhile since I updated this...

MrA! I have some great news! If you go to the "Don't post here for 10 days thread and delete some of you empty posts, it actually reduces your post count! You could have 10-20 more post after a nearly painless process! Now I need to edit my stats again...

.Now I have to carefully select my posts for the next 8 days. I can only make 7 comments.
Of course, i could just keep going back and deleting my old posts...hmmm, that gives me another idea. I could go back to previous months and delete posts there until all the numbers are the same. I do like nice, neat, clean statistics.

...where's that OCD thread?

What if you post messages that self destruct each day?

im confussed

#162: ROFLMAO!

>#164: Hello confussed, i'm Mysterion. Pleased ta meetcha.

163 - *evil grin* would flagging someone's posts reduce their post count?

167- It would be a tricky experiment. I would hate to inadvertently get him kicked out of LT for having to many flagged posts. Think of how it would affect his stats.

*waves to Mysterion* Welcome to our funny little world!

Ok I know I must sound stupid, but where do I find this information.

#170 -- Not stupid at all! From your profile, click on "Statistics" at the top (should be just under the tabs that say "Home," "Profile", etc.). Then click on "Talk and Groups" under Statistics to get your word and post counts.

Thanks foggi. : )

I'm thinking about targeting 424 messages for February. That number has a strange...resonance.

Mysterion: Hmm... that's interesting. You know, I think you would get along well with another member of the group. Unfortunately he's not been to post much since you started posting because he's trying to maintain a strict post limit, but he seems like your kind of person. His name is MrAndrew and I'm sure that if you stick around after the end of the month you'll meet him sooner or later.

Just be careful. Everyone knows that he is the insane facet of MrsG's personality.

>#177: Thanks Espeon200, but i've seen some of his posts and frankly he alarms me. I'm glad that he's not posting anymore. If he comes back next month, i'm afraid that i might have to leave this group.

I did see a guy here once that seemed pretty cool. his name was Stu i think. I hope that he comes back one day.

Where were we...ah yes:

You know, if i get to 424 messages before the end of February, i'm thinking that i might have to start up a second account - so i can keep posting without ruining my post count number. Something like "MysterionOverflow". Does that sound like a good idea?

Yeah, Stu should be back from his world tour any day now, shouldn't he?

That was a surprisingly quiet global tour.

I predict some aggressive deletion in the next 24 hours.

This is what you get for trying to escape from Mysterion's pit. :oP

Start with the one word posts. Like in word association. No one rereads those anyway. :o)

I did on my quest to read all the threads. But that is more of a first read many months later.

OK, here's some tips, for anyone else that wants to play this game:

1) You can't delete other people's posts in an attempt to reduce your own post count (hey, it was worth a try).

2) If you decide to go back and delete your posts in order to reduce your post count for the month, be sure to check the actual date of the posts before deleting. You could accidentally delete posts from previous months.

sigh.

3) Once you have deleted a post, you can't restore it, or edit it again in an attempt to get your post count back up.

sigh.

4) The only thing you can do in that case, is go back and delete posts in previous months. To restore balance to the force.

I have to say, I was worried that might happen. I thought about reminding you to check the dates before you started deleting, no I'm sorry I didn't. :)

#184-LOL!
Sorry.
No, I'm not. LOL!!!

Dude, I can't believe you did that!

I'm pleased to say I can post five more times before the end of the day to reach an even 800. It would be the first time I ended the month on a round number. I have never had two months with the same post count.

All I have to do now is sit back and try not to respond to every funny thing I read in the threads. Which will be difficult, since I'm still catching up from overnight. I had a nice sleep, thank you. It definitely helped to insist that my husband take cat to her job today. 9:30am. That's just too close to a real job. I thought I was raising artistic free-thinking rebels? And circus people?

Can you tell she isn't home to edit me?

Happy Thingaversary! I almost feel like there should be a separate thread just for events like these... almost.

192, I told you yesterday that it was still February in LT time.

Just a minute Mysterion and MrA! Those March message counts look a little high.

I'm afraid to see what my post count is for February. I was gone for so long, that it's probably pitifully low.

Perhaps Mysterion could give you some advice?

Maybe you just post as much as you want and forget about the stats ;)

#206 -- That's what I do!

That's just crazy talk.

I know, i could have my post count growing exponentially each month... by August, there will be room for no posts but mine! Mwahahaha!

I think you should try for a nice round number.
Like 800.
Oh heck, try for a thousand.
Just make sure they are quality posts. ;o)

so...umm... i like stuff.

MrA, you are such an abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz...and stuff. :o)

you're a towel.

Yeah well your a tool so :p!

i said towel not trowel. :P~~~

see jp, you've riled up the natives.

Comparing to the end of March in 2008...
1951 messages
61600 words

That would indicate I have 1507 messages left for this month if I wanted to post just as many posts as I did this month one year ago!! (What in the world? How did I post so much?)

ETA: I should add that March of 2008 is when I have the most posts and words per month for all my time spent on LT as of yet.

Can I borrow your account?

KIK!

*K hides her posts*

*mutters*
Opps. Here is yet another post.

(I am thinking of that roll over minutes commerical for phones now that's advertised too much. ;)

Bib, any ideas why Kerian posted so much in March 2008?

;)

I think there was a lot of posting that month.

I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about! It certainly couldn't have anything to do with someone working a boring job discovering the site...

...Reviving threads, promoting posting....

;)

I forget, when did we all suffer from a plague of longpostitis?

I think May or June, maybe.

Yeah, that was in May

ayup, May. Good times.

May is just around the corner, no?

Ah, MrA. You have the gift of gab. Tis a blessing and a curse.

Maybe you could do something with having double fours every month. 448, 644...You could try for 446 this month, then 844 the following month.

i have the gift of type. A blessing for me, for others...

421 421 448 644 446 844... no, that 448 looks completely out of whack. IT'S ALL GOT TO BALANCE!

421 421 448 644 448 421 421... that would work.

Stop rolling your eyes, MsD. I still haven't forgiven you for those muffins you made - they did not have THE EXACT SAME AMOUNT OF BLUEBERRIES in each muffin. They have the be THE EXACT SAME AMOUNT in each one. Everyone knows that.

Now go refill the ice cube tray, you know how an empty ice cube tray upsets me.

Maybe I'll half refill it *snicker*

I think is should be...
421 421 448 644 446 844 124 124

Those last two months would be tough for you though, and i'm not entirely sure we want to hear that little from you.

I really don't know what was up with February.

>#230: Mandy, that looks perfect! Thanks heavens someone around here recognises the importance of symmetry. *glares at MsD*

I suppose that Mysterion could always come back and help me out. Or there could be a number of long-post-months.

My pleasure MrA, I always enjoy a good number pattern.

There's a new stat and I'm interested in seeing what everyone's is. It's the "longest message" stat. I fear what some of your numbers may be, mine is...

Longest message (632 words)

I'm afraid to look at any of my stats for this month.

Longest message (1,077 words)

Ooooo....new stats, fun!

My longest message is 800 words and is, not surprisingly, from the discussion of OotP.

Wow . . . mine was 1,162 words, and it was from the PoA discussion. I was sure it would be one of the posts on the information thread, but since I split those instructions up into four or five posts, I guess that's what did it.

543 words. I'm speechless.

Did anyone see the Dead or Alive meme?

Dead or Alive?

How many of your authors are dead?

Dead: 59 / Alive: 69 / Unknown: 69 / Not a Person: 3

Percent alive: 53.91%

I wonder if I should be reading more dead authors' works.

Mine are worse jp:
Dead: 7 / Alive: 69 / Unknown: 79 / Not a Person: 4

Percent alive: 90.79%

Apparently I don't read enough stuff from dead people.

not a person?

I was thinking that too!

I think those are series that have several authors writing under one name, or one that doesn't have one author.

Not a Person (4)
Hal Leonard Corporation
Carolyn Keene
Thomas Nelson
Time-Life Books

Mine are:

Dead: 53/ Alive: 117/ Unknown: 102/ Not a Person: 9/ Zombies: 0
My percent alive is 68.82

Unknown (6)
Janet Aylmer
Judi Barrett
Tana French
Tammy Greenwood
Robert Kapilow
Robert Lopshire

Not a Person (0)
None

Zombies (?)
None yet...

Hmm all my books seem to have been written by people.

No Zombies yet? I'll have to get to work on that one...anyone know any good books by a Zombie?

I wonder why Carolyn Keene isn't a person. What on earth is she, if she isn't a person?

Dead or Alive?

Zombies (?)

None yet...

I guess I need to read more dead authors' books. Unfortunately, I don't know of any books written by zombies, good or otherwise. I guess I need to look harder.
I have a pretty balanced amount in the Male or Female? though.

Male: 52 : Female: 54 : Other/Contested/Unknown: 0 : N/A: 1 : Not set 12

Percent male: 49.06%

Carolyn Keene is the name that several authors have used to write the Nancy Drew series.

But still, she wrote the original series, so that ought to count for something.

It was just a list of things i copied from an old thread (not HE) when i started a new thread.

Dead: 45 / Alive: 83 / Unknown: 9 / Not a Person: 0
Percent alive: 64.84%

I'll have to go research the "unknowns" and update LT one day.

William Shakespeare is dead, apparently. Who knew?

William who? Nope, never heard of him. Probably why his death didn't get much news coverage...

Dead: 32 / Alive: 95 / Unknown: 56 / Not a Person: 6

Percent alive: 74.8%

alas.

And while i'm here:
Bumping old or inactive ("dead") threads is occasionally called "necroposting" or "thread necromancy", and the bumped posts referred to as "frankenposts". "Dead" threads that are reawakened are often called "thread necros". People who resurrect old threads are often called "threadomancers"

I'm being a threadomancer right now! Because that sounds like an insanely cool thing to do.

AAAAH! Inferni-thread!
