Qt3 member posting statistics: The Final Word

Why ask why?

I love the fact that Brian spends dozens of hours compiling statistical lists that are not only questionable in usefulness (but certainly not in ironic entertainment value), but are also instantly dated and irrelevant. Now SHUT UP, all of you! I’m on neither of Brian’s “Last Word” lists, and one thread might push me into the championship division.

I don’t make any of these lists. I haven’t decided yet if that’s a good thing or a bad thing…

You made the first list, and you’ll be making it again when I do an update to it in 1.5 or 2 weeks.

You also made the Popular Threads list for your XPlay topic.

Funny… I was thinking just last week that I seem to be the kiss of death on many a thread. Imagine my surprise to see I don’t even register here.

Good list, Brian. Care to post the whole thing?

Here is the entire list. The Top 80 least frequent Final Worders are in the first list and the Top 79 most frequent Final Worders are in the second list.

Fun fact: olaf, Rorschach, wzrd, Xemu, Rob O’Boston, runesword forger, and Brad Wardell are the only people to have at least 5 final words without having final words in more than one forum. All of these people have all of their final words in the Games forum… Rob O’Boston leads the way with 16 final words, all in Games. Perhaps someone should tell Rob there are other forums here ;).

I refer you to this thread wherein it was proved that my case has to do with the “intense brilliance” of my posts. Feel free to reply no more forever, people.

I bet this is the thread that will never end, as everyone will fight for supremacy in being the final poster.

You’re talking crazy.

Ha! Suck on that you post-mongering hick!

OK, maybe I’m a little too excited about this, but I needed an excuse to call Tyjenks a post-mongering hick because I just saw this post he wrote. On my birthday, no less. Bastard.

This is the last post on the thread.

So there :P

Not anymore.

Bet you this will be though.

Not if I can help it.

What’s everyone talking about?

Nothing, just move along.

There’s nothing to see here.

Nothing? Really? Well, ok then, I’m off.

Trying to be the last post on this thread is so lame.

You said it, Bro.
