Cancer Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER For a while most of my characters in various campaigns had as their surnames "bastard" from various other languages. I think a couple of those campaigns are still running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Boy, a week almost went by with Alice at the end here. We are clicking along swimmingly toward 1000 Rep Power by the end of CY 2006. The 500 Rep Power barrier was broken on 1 September. 600 Rep Power fell on 21 September. Susano was at 678 a minute ago, so it seems there'll be no problem breaking 700 by early next week. Even if we stay at the merely linear growth rate of 100 rep power in 20 days, we'll hit 1000 midway through December. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER And then what happens? Will Susano turn into a miniature black hole? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Dunno. I don't know anything about the board software. It'd be cool if we could make the counters wrap around and have large negative rep power values. Doubt it'll occur, though. The e-folding time for peak Rep Power looks to be about 130 days, or about 300 days to increase by a factor of 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Given that SuperSquirrel started this thread, it would have been ironic if Alice did, in fact, get the last word.
