We actually have had this rule about NEBIEWS in our seasonal ski houses for 10+ years now.

In terms of cleaning up, etc, the pun-like rule goes like this:

"The NU-Guy does everything until he/she is not da NU-Guy anymore. Then the NU-Guy does everything"

Seems you are til you are no more...

But the big question is, does it go by the number of miles you have or experience with them, or what? And can you earn miles by the number of posts, number of words typed in one (I'd get that one) or any of these?

Maybe the FT should have some awards on this one!
