    It's actually quite easy, I pick the threads that nobody wants to post in and add something just so that I can have the last word.
    And Ponderable, my friend, I actually did it twice in March, killed both Thread 145906 and Thread 145627 on Page 1.

    But you need a mod to close the thread....and your postings are hardly offensice, so the one this month was at least provocative

    Have you seen those people who trip over their own feet and then do an exaggerated glance back at an imaginary cause for their mishap.๐Ÿ™‚

    No I am usually behind you at a diagonal across the street, cannot not believe you have never seen me, too busy scowling at the pavement perhaps?

    Ponderable, you've been collecting these since October I think. How about publishing a list for the 7 months so we can see if we're getting better or worse?

    We can have a few more numbers from my wise notes:

    Grampy Bobby won the title three times in a row (October to December).

    Most kills in one month (October to April) Grampy Bobby 24 (October)

    Winner with fewest kills: Ponderable 12 (March)

    user most often in the top 3: Shallow Blue (3rd October, 2nd November, 3rd December, 1st january, 2nd february, 3rd March)

    Kills per month (October 11 to April 12): 105-108-129-108-82-64-106

    Highest proportions of kills Very Rusty (24.4๐Ÿ˜ต february 12
    Lowest proportions (for a winner): Grampy Bobby 12.4% (December 11)

    portion of the top three on total kills 43.8 --32.4 -- 31.8 --37.0 --52.4 --42.2 --33.0
