Queen Z is at 24,480 with a current post rate of 30.99 a day.

That 30.99 X365 = 11,311.35 to bring her grand total up to (11,311 + 24, 480) 35,791 for this time next year.

--------------

You are currently at 5000 with a rate of 6.2 posts a day. If you were to bump that rate up to 84.375 posts a day then by this time next year you will have her beat.

your 84.375 x 365 = 30796.875 + 5000 = 35796.875

vs her
30.99 x 365 = 11,311.35 + 24,480= 35791.35


This would only require an improvement of (84.375 - 6.2) 78.175 additional posts a day.


You can do it.

My head hurts! Maybe I could send Big Louie over there to, um, discuss the health of her kneecaps. That'd slow her down. Naw, she'd probably get him as addicted to this Forum as I am and he'd out post me too. Shoot.

Well, you know how that works, don't you?

Z is so far ahead because she's bilingual and that gives her an edge.

Every post she makes in English converts to 1.609344 k/hr in that other language, and for every post she makes in French converts to 1.39351 USD.

See how that adds up faster? It all depends on the exchange rate.

As a first language French speaker and a low poster, I fail to see the logic behind this calculation but if you say so...

BTW It's the return of our beloved snarky Blue one from a long absence.

Welcome back Lady Blue!!!

Logic? What logic? Who uses logic?

I was simply using a creative and flexible form of numerical calculation infused with a random distortion of statistical exchange rates (x2) and included the language variable to show why Z is so far ahead of us. You too, can skew the numbers to show your posts more favorably if you wished to, since you are also bilingual. You're not a low poster . . . you're just using the wrong conversion chart. Try converting to Yen and see how easily this formula works.

See? Simple.


Oops. Sorry Yvan. You're in Canada. That's a whole 'nother formula entirely.
