Didn't we just mark 500,000 posts (complete with a contest which I didn't even come close to winning)? In opening up FT the post caounter reads 439,230. What gives ??

That's because the AA and UA topics are down

Its time for another contest.

Possible topics for the new contest --
(a) When we'll next go 72 hours w/o any technical issues (b) When we'll finally come up with some way of electronically "slapping" users who post messages with nothing but smiley faces (c) When the earth will be taken over by apes (guesses accurate to within 60 minutes). Of course, for contest (c) we'd have to get the apes to agree to arbitrate it, because they'd have to be the ones giving the prize. |

Have a look at my contest suggestions on the "Only Randy Peterson" forum--....."Now that the 500,000 post contest is over".
Now, if we could only get Randy to have a look also........ bj-21. ------------------ 'Tis better to have played and won, then never to have played at all. |

Though first, prior to issuing "the slap", I think we should inquire as to whether their keyboard has only 2 or 3 functioning keys (a colon-esque "something" key, maybe a Shift key, & something involving a parenthesis, perhaps). Given the evidence that they could post, it would seem safe to assume that @ least one aspect of their mouse was functioning (imagine what a fright it would be if they didn't already have a bookmark to FlyerTalk or something else from which they could jump to it). If they had a fully functioning mouse, w/ right & left click functionality intact, it would seem that they're "good to go" re: entering text...if they can highlight & copy/cut/paste, they've got the alphabet & punctuation @ their disposal, thanks to our numerous & flowery posts! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif [This message has been edited by ILTE_Miles (edited 08-29-2001).] |
