Top Ten Signs You're Addicted to the Barrow-Downs - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Lhunardawen · 01-03-2006, 08:26 AM

You click on the "Who Posted?" link of almost every active thread to see who posted the most and how you rank in posting. This proves most interesting when done with Werewolf threads to see who's the most talkative.

My most "memorable" discoveries:

1. Fea is the most frequent poster in both Shire- and Mordor-assignment threads. I find the fact a bit contradictory.

2. In all Werewolf games I have ever played, mormegil is ALWAYS one of the most talkative. Quite unsurprisingly, he also has the greatest number of posts in the original thread.

3. Gil-Galad posted the most in Know Yer Mates.

4. Hookbill has the most Crazy Captions posts...but you already know that. Okay then, let's try Fortunately/Unfortunately.

5. Same person above has the most number of BD predictions. Tight race for second place between Lhuna and tgwbs.

6. tgwbs finds the most amusement in typos or Freudian slips, whichever they are.

7. Oddwen, Menel, and Nilp are the top three contributors to the New Movie Script. No surprise there.

Okay, I'll stop now.

EDIT: I have to thank tgwbs for letting us (in Werewolf VII? VI?) know about this. The link and what it does, I mean.

Tight race indeed!

In French, in a sentence to do with hobbies, I translated "lecture de BDs" as "reading the Barrow Downs." Apparently, it means comics, though there are comics on the Downs, so in a sense I was perfectly correct.

Due to moving caves, and having my new dungeon renovated, I have been off-line since August. Days pass into weeks,and weeks into months. A horrid thing called work took over my miserable existance. Then I got the call, my abode was ready. The first box out of storage was the one that read computer. I plugged it in, set it up the Internet and I nearly experienced joy (to near for a Narfforc). The first site I visited was The I Hate Tree-Hugging Elves Society, to see if there had been another member apart from me joined in my absence. Then it was straight here, before going on to The Hobbit Cooking Society ( Only to see if there was any new ways to cook em mind)

P.S I do love this site (But don't tell anyone)

You know you're addicted to the Barrow-Downs when, for the first time in about a year, you have nothing to do on a Friday night and decide to log back on.

I think waking up voluntarily half an hour (or more) before you normally would (in a school/work morning) just to visit the Downs.

Or when you don't have anything else to do, you try to remember as many Downers' names as you can.

You're mad, I say.

I'm such a late-sleeper, that I couldn't.

'Tis a link upon thy right, good sirrah.

On the right hand side of a forum, there's a "Replies" column. For each thread, there is a number. Clicking on this presents a breakdown of who's posted most.
