campers: new post count game

[Capt Jack]

a little game for the swank campers.

what is your estimate for how many new posts will be on YOUR screen upon your return? keep in mind that a good portion of the high volume poster folks will be at the campsite...


Im in for 255.

[Kevy Baby]

I'm a little more optimistic, especially with Stoat on a roll.

Put me down for 400

[Bornieo: Fully Loaded]

347

[Disneyphile]

147 :p

[GusGus]

2,314

[katiesue]

528

[Ghoulish Delight]

667

[LSPoorEeyorick]

Not a camper but also vacationing over the weekend - I suspect it will be around 350.

[innerSpaceman]

99

[wolfy999]

Not camping either, but quite busy this upcoming weekend - 666 :evil:

You aren't counting sporadic high-volume posters like The Stoat (on behalf of SusieAnne Krellingshaw, aged 11.5 of Arkansas - see Stoat Art thread re wireless electricity transmission).

Oh...and Bear, are we there yet? This pond is bigger than I thought - and I want some bacon food meat.

Besides, 256 is more binary...and here's some more posts:

[Kevy Baby]

I'll have what he's having

[lashbear]

I'm open for bribes as to any particular numbers people want me to achieve......

[lashbear]

I'll have what he's having
That would be me.

[Kevy Baby]

That would be me.On second thought...

[CoasterMatt]

Lets see how many posts this thread gets :)

[lashbear]

Seventeen....

That's the same old post, they said "new posts" :p

Someone needs to make a pie chart


Dear EuroMeinke,

Does the chart have to be made out of pies...couldn't it be made out of burritos or incontinence pads???

A little artistic license goes a long way you know.

Hugs,

The Stoat.

[innerSpaceman]

By the way, my guess above of 99 posts while the campers are away was my prediction for how many by Stoat, not how many total.

[Chernabog]

haha ok those of us not going, who do we like best to win this bet?

[JWBear]

I think each of us should take on the persona of the LoTers who are away at camp.

I'll take iSm... :evil:

[Chernabog]

OOOOhhhhh I like this game. I'll be Morrigoon.

"Would anyone like to pet my weiner?" :p

[lashbear]

I'll be Kevy Baby.

Boobies.

[lashbear]

I like pancakes.

[JWBear]

I like pancakes.

No dear, that's Nephy. :evil:

[Cadaverous Pallor]

"I'm going to have to bid one dollar, Bob."

I'm guessing an even 500 new posts.

I'm also guessing that the Stoat couldn't find Arkansas on a map.

Quiz for the Stoat:

Which US President is from Arkansas?

How do you pronounce Arkansas?

Is Arkansas a city, state, county, township, Indian reservation, or a skin disease?

Were the settlers of Arkansas really that unimaginative, that they just added AAARRR to Kansas, and changed the pronunciation of Kansas? Really? Like seriously, WTF?

Is Miss Krellingshaw of British descent? UK definitely, right? How many freakin Krellingshaws are you going to have in Arkansas?

So the Stoat gets to be GusGus, can he sew?

Yes !! As a matter of fact ! :blush:

[LashStoat]

Dear Ms. Pallor...

"I'm going to have to bid one dollar, Bob."


>>Is that Bob Eubanks or Bob Downe?


I'm guessing an even 500 new posts.


>>Be careful what you wish for, Ms. Pallor.


I'm also guessing that the Stoat couldn't find Arkansas on a map.


>>See map, below.


Quiz for the Stoat:

Which US President is from Arkansas?

>>Do you mean Arkansas the State or Arkansas the City? (refer to map below)

How do you pronounce Arkansas?


>>Dead on arrival? Husband and wife? Taken in the name of the Planet Mars?

Is Arkansas a city, state, county, township, Indian reservation, or a skin disease?


>>Yes

Were the settlers of Arkansas really that unimaginative, that they just added AAARRR to Kansas, and changed the pronunciation of Kansas? Really? Like seriously, WTF?


>>Yes. They were pirates (from the Caribbean).

Is Miss Krellingshaw of British descent? UK definitely, right? How many freakin Krellingshaws are you going to have in Arkansas?

>>Well, Mary Poppins is her mother’s sister’s brother’s cousin’s Aunt twice removed. For vagrancy. And, SusieAnne is currently studying "Human Cloning and Floral Arrangement" at the Arkansas Heights lower junior school. There are said to be at least 42 SusieAnne clones lying about in petrie dishes as we speak.

I hope that answers your questions. Smooch.

Dear Disneyphile,

I would be most honoured if you were to take some of my art and/or stories to share with our friends. Particularly "The remote Thurston in a box cooler" and "The Arkansas Map" above.

Have a laugh around the campfire for me and the LashBear, and think of us whilst we are still swimming across the big wet bit.

Love and hugs,

The Stoat XXX.

Stoatie Be On Fire....

...Should I be worried when I get home in 3 hours time?

[Disneyphile]

I would be most honoured if you were to take some of my art and/or stories to share with our friends. Particularly "The remote Thurston in a box cooler" and "The Arkansas Map" above.Printed on photo-quality paper (high gloss! your art deserves only the best!) and now packed. :D

Gee, Paw, thanks. For the pancakes. A..a...and the time travel.

[LSPoorEeyorick]

Stoat! I know a dark secluded place! A place where no one knows your face! A glass of wine, a fast embrace! It's called Hernando's Hideaway!

Also... I got (bump bump, tssssss) steeeeam heat!

With the way things are going....we are going to shock the campers upon their return with the posts they are missing!!!!

[lashbear]

Yes, and just before they get back, we should get WB to edit ALL the posts to say "I like pancakes".....

Hehehehehehehehe:evil:

[~MS~]

oh even better, have the OP start the pancake trend and everyone just quote it.

[LashStoat]

Dear WendyBeth,

Why are all these folks talking about "Pancakes" ?

I like pancakes just as much as they do...it's not fair. They get to have lots of pancakes and all I get is soggy bacon and a shark biting my butt.

And no ukelele.

Grumpily and pancake-less, somewhere off "HavaLayonUkanPayi" island.

Me. XXX. :( --------> Yes, even the cheese slices are grumpy.

[lashbear]

You're Norty... that's why we love you. :D

:( --------> Yes, even the cheese slices are grumpy.
You twit. :p

[Matterhorn Fan]

Dear Stoat,

I'm surprised you haven't filed your swim plan with the LoT. How else are we to ensure your safe arrival in Kings Canyon if you don't share your plan?

We wouldn't want you to bump into other swimmers out there on your journey--or worse, smack someone in the head with your hot frying pan full of bacon (would you want to be hit with another swimmer's bacon grease?). Don't forget that there are additional dangers that you need to be aware of: sea monsters, mermaids, pirates, and all those silly boats.

Please file your swim plan as soon as possible.

Thank you,
The LoT STC (Swim Traffic Control)

If everyone likes pancakes so much, lets go to......

Nah.... They're not as good as they used to be.

[LashStoat]

Dear Stoat,

Dear Ms. Matterhorn Fan,

You are quite right - we are remiss in not filing a swim plan, particularly after it took us several months of planning to create same.

So here it is - and be warned - it's copyright.

Love and hugs,

The Stoat XXX.

[LashStoat]

PS/ I hope it's going to be high tide when we arrive at King's Canyon, as we forgot to pack knee pads.

XXX.

[lashbear]

Oh, is THAT the swim plan ?!?!

I've been working off THIS one !

[LashStoat]

Well of course, Bear.

You were thinking about process and I was thinking about objective.

XXX.

[belleh5]

Swim? You guys will never make it in time. You may need this...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v402/belleh5/boat.jpg

[lashbear]

Oh, no, a boat would never do - we have to earn the trip with out own blood sweat and tears (mind you, when swimming, no-one can see you sweat.)

[belleh5]

Watch out for..

Love and hugs,

The Stoat XXX.According to your swim plan, you are in the wrong ocean.

[lashbear]

Ocean? This isn't the Arkansas public olympic pool ?

[cirquelover]

Silly Ol' Bear!

[BarTopDancer]

What a weekend (and I wasn't camping). 466 new posts for me. Last visit on the 6th at 4:41pm

[CoasterMatt]

We'll redouble our efforts.

[lashbear]

or even re-double-double.

[lashbear]

...-double

[LashStoat]

Watch out for..

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v402/belleh5/sharks_007-1.jpg

Dear Belleh5,

I know you aren't going to believe me, but I have actually been in the open ocean with sharks and no cage. That includes Grey Nurses (off the coast off NSW, Australia), Mako in Fiji, and one compact-car size Great White, also off the NSW Coast - and kid I wasn't a bit worried following the anchor rope from 120 feet (around 40 metres) with that SOB down there !!!

The first open water dive I did after being qualified was like diving in a green glad bag - didn't know I'd reached the bottom until I hit my head on it !!!

So I'm not overly worried about sharks. The people I work with are more scary. LOL.

I don't know if I should say smooch or hugs - if you're a bloke, just remember I've swum with sharks, maaate.

The Stoat.

[Ponine]

Stoat!
The more I hear about you, the more intrigued I am!!!!

You and the bear must have a ton of stories that NEED to be told!!!

Please, more stories about your exotic adventures!

[Ghoulish Delight]

I was under. 916 was my count.

[LSPoorEeyorick]

I bet 350, actual was about 430. Could've done worse.

[Cadaverous Pallor]

The crazy thing is, I also got 916, even though I logged out and in at totally different times. :eek:

[Not Afraid]

I left early. My count.........1503!!!!!!!

I may not sleep tonight.

[LashStoat]

plus one...Smooch,

Love and hugs,

The Stoat XXX.

[innerSpaceman]

I also got 916, but I should have had one less that the Delights because I think I posted I was leaving a few hours after they left.


Hmmmmm.

[Ghoulish Delight]

I also got 916, but I should have had one less that the Delights because I think I posted I was leaving a few hours after they left.


Hmmmmm.Yes, but then I got back before you and posted, so that's one that didn't count for me and does for you.

[innerSpaceman]

Ah, gotcha.



But what about my prediction of 99 Stoat posts while we were gone? Is there any way to determine how many posts he made during that period??

[Ghoulish Delight]

Yes.

[Kevy Baby]

what is your estimate for how many new posts will be on YOUR screen upon your return? keep in mind that a good portion of the high volume poster folks will be at the campsite...Y'all were busy. Especially Stoat.

[Kevy Baby]

But what about my prediction of 99 Stoat posts while we were gone? Is there any way to determine how many posts he made during that period??

Yes.According to my search just now, Stoat has made 134 posts in the last six days.

[cirquelover]

Mission Accomplished!!

[Kevy Baby]

Well, it took about 2-1/2 hours from when I first started reading earlier, but I finally made it through the 1419 posts (final tally) since my last visit (including interruptions for work and lunch).

Phew
