geekmaster's trimillenary post!

geekmaster · 07-19-2012, 12:32 PM

Trimillenary = three thousand. This is post number 3,000. In the MobileRead Kindle Developer's Corner forum, more than ten percent of all posts are from geekmaster. This calls for a celebration I think.

Hopefully, a significant number of those posts were useful and interesting to a significant number of people (members and lurkers alike).

Chapeau GM! I tried to up your karma so it (ephemerally) ends with lucky sevens, but the forum software miscounted by 1. Good luck anyway and thanks for all the fish.

But I have not been able to predict that off-by-one behavior. It seems fairly consistent changing two-digit karma to 2600 (I have to add one extra), but trying for palindromes is really hit-or-miss. And thanks for the K!

Chapeau in French means "hat". I do not understand your usage, unless it means "hat's off" or "tip of the hat to you" (like thomass's icon used above).

The cultural "fish" reference belongs with the "marvin" smiley:

Correct, that is the exact meaning.

Yep, 42

What do you get if you multiply six by nine?

Total Paradise is the clue

Die = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} == 21
Dice = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} * 2 == 42

42 = Total pair o dice

Why the heck is the quote button showing up as GM's avatar?!? A gift from the mods?

My quote button is fine. You may have a corrupted web browser cache. That was a common problem in the Win98 days. You can clear the browser cache in the settings menu.

Total Paradise is the clue...

"Kama Sutra Position #69" is another clue.

WikiPedia? Whoa!

After thinking about it for 7½ million years you get 4*13^1+2*13^0 The answer is easy (counting on 13 fingers), coming up with the question is the difficult part.

The button is the same on 4 browsers and 3 devices.

I was far too terrified to click ´69 (disambiguation).´

sounds like it could include limb loss...

Wikipornia well I never.
