How many levels are there? We'll there's currently 15 so you've got a looonnngg way to go, then we make up some new ones for you :) As you can see it's close at the top with several people just hoverring on the border to the next level - so there's averything to play for.

Who has the 'power'? Well that's a tricky one! The forums constantly calculate the points power of your own blob awards, it depends on -

The number of posts you have made
Your current repuation level
How long you've been registeredPlus of course... it's all under Sys Admin control. We can fiddle with the parameters to keep you all guessing and completely change the rules if we want to :D

Happy blobbing!

Typical...the Chief Tart...and he is not even on the first three pages of the league!:mad:

As usual the Chief does none of the work, generates none of the rewards...but claims the glory!:rolleyes:

The currentking of the heap is Alan Ewart
(because people felt so sorry for him after he wrote an Ode)

It had NOTHING to do with "Odin" :p - and made no mention of a Chief Tart!

All the best

Hi keith ,

is there any way the sys admins could make the " Blob Tart's League " a button on the members section so we can see where all the members are in the table .
Just for fun if possible
Premership
Championship
Division 1
Devision 2
and soforth may be with 100 or so people allowed in each section .
just a though for a bit more fun .

Comments please . :cool:

Hey? What?
No! I didn't mean....
When I said big pink blobs, I was referring to being an 'advert for diving fitness'. You know, the ones who always say that their drysuit has shrunk when we all know they've eaten too many pies. (all of the pies in my case)
Oh forget it, I'll never live this one down now.... :o

Until I have posted more drivel my blobs are a worthless grey shadow of what they could be.

I am very sorry for my inadequacies (I really should get the avatar sorted ;) )

However as my first dive trip is next week (this time in 7 days I'll be bombing up the a1 in Lees van!) I'm sure I will have much more to talk about.

You can all blob me for sharing my experiences (no doubt near death knowing me!) and I will reciprocate!

The table doesn't allow for the fact that those with higher rep will be assigning higher scores to others. It is easier for newer members to get higher rep from established member for fewer posts.

My thoughts exactly Ade. I need some serious bottom dive to get me "new season" confidence after a dry winter. I'm not fancying 30m+ at the bottom of the channel as a first dive!

I did get in this weekend but lost both buddies (one lost - careless - two lost - oh s**t time!) within about 10 seconds so we canned it and ate chocolate digestives on the boat!

One thing tho - I know I have enough weight with the dry/s so sink in the sea so I can start off loading some lead - and the new gloves were TOAST!!!

John Williams (name 'em and shame 'em) wnated to do an experiemtn with me (slightly worrying but never mind!) and red blobbed me. Since then he's been trying to green blob me to reverse his damage to me fragile ego but he must spread his love around more freely before loving me!

Therefore, anyone who wished to blob me to help put right the damamge this nasty man has done to me - greens accepted! ;)

I wanted to give Kath 2407 a shock - just for fun...and then replace all her points...but it seems that you cannot take away and give without spreading your ministrations about. Please help me add to her rep for the blobs-per-per post table comments by giving her some greens! SysAdmin greens are particularly welcome!)

John

He even admitted his crimes :cry:

Kath,

Worth pointing out that it's hardly the fault of the admins if John chooses to red blob you... you'd know if we'd blobbed you, our blobs are rather stronger than most.

Ben

EDIT: He's not the messiah, he's a very naughty boy!

I do own the place...just as much as any other forum member!

What more do you want me to do ...except immediately and publicly highlight my error ..and ask for help to sort it (which I did!)

I've been trying to sort it myself...but have had ISP problems (that kept me from "waltzing around here" for a month).

I've even PM'd you to confirm that I've not forgotten...give me a break!

You tart. That was so obvious Alan.

I must be slacking, Adrian now has more posts than me :eek:

You really did miss the point of that "points per post" spreadsheet didn't you Keith!:)

I seem to recall that that confirmed you as the biggest windbag of them all...based on the perceived value of what you post!

...which we all know is not true:rolleyes: ...people only get greens when others feel sorry for them:( - or when they post something more useful than we have come to expect from them;) ...so if your posts are consistently excellent then you don't get many greens!

Which means that we all consider MattS to be a numpty...but one that is working well above his expected delivery standard!:eek:

I probably should have allowed for sysadmins documenting the system....what's your excuse John :D That's a very good point Matt. In fact five out of the top six entries in the posts league are Sys Admins, with the highest placed non-admin poster being... JOHN! So, we have an excuse. Up until a few months ago the most active forums on here were the SysAdmin ones that we use to configure and administer the systems.

Strip out all of the SysAdmin stuff and I reckon John should have the forum windbag title :)

ps - Maybe we need a poll now to help us decide if we let you have your title back.

Shouldn't we be looking at the ratio of blobs to posts rather than a simple count.

for example;

I have an average of 1.7 blobs per post
John Williams is on 1.64
Andy Wade is on 2.37
Keith is on 1.13
Adrian is on 0.76


The moral here? Quality not quantity !! :)

But then I don't go prostituting myself for blobs either :D :D

It would be interesting if we removed the admin side posts form the counts AND admins have greater blob power too :)

I think you may have a point. Mind you, sysadmins do a great job :) and should get credit for their work.

I am proud to say that I have never begged for blobs!! :)
