Sometimes I wonder if we messed up Donnageddon's experiement, or if this was what he expected? Form of: Hijacked Thread!

99 bottles of rum on the wall, 99 bottles of rum!
If one of those bottles should happen to fall ... into a pitcher of diet Coke,
Well.... I'll be the next one to fall!

I always imagined them being on a more bricks and cement type of wall. All 158 of them. No, wait, it's 157 now I've drunk another...

The bottles are stuck by static electricity, just roll them across the carpet and toss 'em against the wall. NOBODY touch a door knob!

Did you count them?

Well, the bottles of beer in this thread seem to keep increasing anyway. We started out with 99, we all keep drinking, and passing the stuff around, yet we keep ending up with more bottles . . . I think someone is smuggling more in. At this rate, we'll never drink it all.

I didn't know this was a BYOB party anyway.

There are 504 of them. But they are not "on the wall" but in a huge refrigerator kinda case - and I want one!

Yep, it must be dark energy that holds the bottles on the wall. Or maybe hands. Yeah, maybe there are 99 hands sticking out of the wall and you just take one down, pass it around, 98 bottles of beer on the wall! 98 bottles of beer on the wall! 98 bottles of beer! Take one down, pass it around, 97 bottles of beer on the wall! 97 bottles of beer on the wall! 97 bottles of....

As well you should be;

The point of this thread is that no one can post twice. I want to find out if, with no one posting more than once, we can rid the wall of beer bottles.
MR participants were unable to meet this task on the first page, let alone after 99 bottles of beer.

yvanleterrible posted both #8 and #14 in violation of criteria. The experiment appears to show that MR participants were unable adhere to the delineated rules after the consumption of 11 individual bottles of beer. Not, notice, by a single person consuming 11 bottles of beer but rather by 11 different persons each consuming one bottle of beer.

Now one might suppose that yvanleterrible was working off a contact high or possibly misunderstood and was consuming a beer for each beer that was removed from the wall.



It might be argued from yvanleterrible's post #8 that the criteria "we can rid the wall of beer bottles" was meet prior to his second post since he apparently got rid of the wall by dropping the beer on the floor in post #8. However there is no substantiation that the "wall of beer bottles" was gotten rid of unless one accepts that numerous following posts were picking the beer up off the floor. This is cercumstantial evidence at best and I, for one, do not accept that rational.

In any case it is instructive to note that once the experiment criteria were violated the MR participants continued on for another 6 pages, 71 posts. In increasingly deranged comments they appear to still be trying to proceed with the experiment.
