200 GFP to Top 5 Posters

[LiNuX]

I thought we'd make posting a type of competition for this month. So by August 31st, the top 5 posters of the forum for the MONTH will get 200 GFP each to spend anywhere they like. Whether spend it all in the casino, the arcade, get a new usertitle, or spend it on graphics.

I will update the list below every few days to let everyone know who is leading and how much you may have to post to catch up.

Here is the current top 5:


1. jakncoke - 3000
658 real posts - 23.7%

2. LiNuX - 1458
933 real posts - 65.9%

3. Trunks - 1395
601 real posts - 43.5%

4. conman1000 - 1205
367 real posts - 34.8%

5. Rukisuto - 1195
645 real posts - 53.9%

6. Scott - 1162
272 real posts - 26%



Here is something special. I will do a manual check of all of your posts. If any one in the top 5 has more than 50% of their posts in the non-spammer corner boards, they will get an additional 100 GFP.

It may sound confusing. For example. if you have 1000 total posts and only 400 are in Spammers Corner and 600 are in every other board, you will get 300 GFP instead of 200. If you have 501 posts in Spammers corner out of a 1000 posts, you will get 200 GFP.

The above rule is to encourage posting in the other boards. And this only applies to the people trying to get to the top 5 poster spots.

Good luck to everyone! If you have questions or suggestions, post here.

And also, this is not finalized...all top 5 posters of the month may be moved to a new group called the MVP Group. We had this in 2006 to early 2007 and we may bring it back again. Remember, this is not final yet!

We won't get 200 posts! We'll get 200 GFP, just thought I would point out the error.

BTW to everyone else, don't even try passing me out I'm coming out and once I'm in I'm not coming out.

Edit: Well I'm in. (21 posts)

lol thanks for noticing, confused myself with the example lol

and good luck...i'll try to keep a top 5 position myself so i only have to award 3 4 people :-P not selfish but its a way to make others fight for the spot - and i can't award myself anyway lol, dont have that option on my username

[Blackbird]

Are I'm really one of the Top 5 posters? XD

[jakncoke]

If I qualify for MVP status I wish to decline it cause Mass Poster is cooler and more fitting for me.

[glenofimaal]

all right i need 200 gfp so i time to post!!!!!!

[LiNuX]

your custom user title doesn't change with your usergroup, its custom for a reason

you see the little image that says "MEMBER" right under your usertitle, that's the thing that's going to change

and even then you can reject it if you wish

o well dumb me, nevermind :laugh:

[Scott]

Awesome I've just connected my PC to the internet so I should be able to post more and faster.

[Kiss]

I know I'm not getting 300 gfp.

[LiNuX]

I know I'm not getting 300 gfp.

lol, maybe you'll hit your 1000th post?

[Kiss]

TAHHAHAHAAHNA

2 weeks atleast. LOOK AT MAH POSTING AVERAGE.

[Trunks]

okay wait so it starts at this month or total? Because I have like 10k post in the spammers total. Does that mean I need 20k post lol or are you starting at this month?

[conman1000]

Are I'm really one of the Top 5 posters? XD

Not anymore :-P

[LiNuX]

its from August 1st to August 31st - its a way to increase activity during the birthday month of GF :) so everything reset Yesterday

[Kiss]

Honestly Linux, I ain't gettin dat money.

[Trunks]

its from August 1st to August 31st - its a way to increase activity during the birthday month of GF :) so everything reset Yesterday

I was going to say... There is no way that I am getting 12k post in 1 month.

[conman1000]

Honestly Linux, I ain't gettin dat money.

Well your in 6th, 20(now 21) posts behind me.

Edit: Now almost 100.

[LiNuX]

The top 5 posters of the month has been updated. Jak leads by a huge deal thanks to spammers corner. Looks like scott will be kicked off the list since he disappeared.

[rukisuto]

I'll be getting that 300 GFP :]
I hardly post in the spammers corner.
AND I post a whole bunch.

Boy, this competition was made for me, lol.

[Trunks]

I'm going to try to go for the 300, but if If I get in 5th, it's too the spammers corner.

how do you check how many real post you have again. You told me before, but I can't find it.

Sorry for double posting, but It's not worth making another thread and editing my last post wouldn't show up that there was a new post.

thats still no excuse for double posting - i check back at this thread often to update the top 5 - and who knows, someone else may not have read this thread and they could have responded - don't double post within 24 hrs again please

and to find real posts, you need to know how to work the advance search feature of the forum - this isn't the place to explain that so you were better off making your own thread - but just screw around with the advance search and you could figure it out yourself

[LiNuX]

thread updated once again - the top 4 hasn't moved but scott was kicked off the 5th position and Hawk took over with 395 posts :)

will update again in a few days

[jakncoke]

I still can't believe Scot is being a whiny sissy about the whole situation

[rukisuto]

I still can't believe Scot is being a whiny sissy about the whole situation

Why is he being a whiny sissy?

[Trunks]

Why is he being a whiny sissy?

He copied some of his game reviews and when Linux confronted him about it he just left the forums.

[LiNuX]

i dont know if he just left the forum or is just hiding from me - who knows, he could be just out of internet again lol - but i know he read my PM and never responded to it though

[rukisuto]

He copied some of his game reviews and when Linux confronted him about it he just left the forums.

Oh, I remember that.
Why did he even take them in the first place?
Everyone could tell right off the bat they weren't his.

[LiNuX]

list updated again - Jak still holds the lead, trunks took second spot pushing linux back one, and scott enters the race again and takes up 5th place. And rukisuto still remains unchanged :)

[rukisuto]

I'll probably safely hold my position throughout the month :]
Scott is a ways behind me.

[conman1000]

I'm confident in my chances to catch Scott, it'll help a lot more if he disappears again.

[Trunks]

How come Rrunks has second and not me = p

I just had to point it out.. I wonder if I have 50% real post... probably not, but maybe...

[LiNuX]

lol sorry, typo

and i just checked your posts, and you do not have more than 50% of your posts outside of spammers corner :)

[jakncoke]

I would be amazed if I had 10% real posts.

[LiNuX]

list updated again, everyone went up in posts but the top 5 has not changed even a little :) just over a week left for this

[Trunks]

I think it's safe to say that I made it. I defiantly didn't get 50% real post though = /

[LiNuX]

List updated again. Rukisuto got pushed back to 5th place but she will probably be the only one to get the 300 GFP anyway :)

Linux closing in on Trunks. And Scott made a huge comeback. Conman's dreams of being in the top 5 are fading away with just over 2 days left and having to make about 500 or so posts to get on the top 5 list.

Good job to everyone :) Just over 2 days to go before this is done. The Awards will be given out the first week of September.

~LiNuX

[rukisuto]

I'll catch up to Scott, no worries, lol.
Can't wait for the reward :]

[Scott]

I'll catch up to Scott, no worries, lol.
Can't wait for the reward :]

Well theres only 3 days to go so you've not got long ;-)

[conman1000]

Watch me come back.

[rukisuto]

One more day left.
Hopefully I can still push past scott, lol.

[conman1000]

392 posts to go. :).

[Scott]

392 posts to go. :).

Noooooooo..... I'm not going to let you pass me.

[conman1000]

I think I'm being regarded as a threat now.

But I've run out of ideas for posts.

Don't worry I'll be back again tomorrow.

[LiNuX]

list has been updated, i have now put up how many real posts the person has along with the percentage.


1. jakncoke - 2776
658 real posts - 23.7%

2. LiNuX - 1414
933 real posts - 65.9%

3. Trunks - 1380
601 real posts - 43.5%

4. Scott - 1045
272 real posts - 26%

5. Rukisuto - 1001
595 real posts - 59.4%

i have no idea why they aren't aligned..

[conman1000]

Can you tell me how many real posts I have for the month?

[LiNuX]

Can you tell me how many real posts I have for the month?

216 real posts which is about 29% of all of your posts for the month :)

[conman1000]

Lol, I just figured out how to do it, so I have a higher precentage than Scott and Jak, no surprise there.

[jakncoke]

my goal was completed, my goal was 10% real posts.

[LiNuX]

Lol, I just figured out how to do it, so I have a higher precentage than Scott and Jak, no surprise there.

yeah its easy to check :)


my goal was completed, my goal was 10% real posts.

lol congratulations

looks like i am the only one with a passing score of 65 lol :D thats passing in NYC public school systems :D

[rukisuto]

Go me with 59.4% :]

[LiNuX]

Go me with 59.4% :]

looks like you're the only one getting the extra 100 GFP lol

jak and scott can never get it unless they go on a mass posting spree to get real posts

trunks has a higher chance since he's only 6.5% short

[conman1000]

I personally think I'm making this interesting, 163 posts back with 26 hours left, this is very doable.



EDIT: I DID IT, BIGGEST COMEBACK EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:-(:eek1::yes::confused1::wub::radar:;-):no::twitcy::mask::-P:laugh::spinny:;(:-):D:rolleyes1:

I'm still in a state of denial and happyness.

[LiNuX]

just updated it a bit since conman took the 5th spot kicking scott back to 6th, he won't get anything except have his name as the 6th person if he doesn't come back :)

Rukisuto pushed to 4th spot by reducing her real post count to 56.6%

I didn't update the top 3 because there hasn't been much change.

still a very close race between rukisuto, conman1000, and scott, who will win? Stay tuned for the next episode of, LiNuX's Post (The Winnerz)

[rukisuto]

This totally sucks because I want that extra GFP.
Scott will probably hop on and go to spammers corner.

[conman1000]

367 Real posts, much more than I originally thought.

And Ruki, it's 6 in Scotland now, his internet may not be working.

[rukisuto]

[Scott]

No way I'm 6th now??.... I'd better go mad now then lol

[LiNuX]

no, its 11:59:59 PM Eastern time, that's when the stats reset for me :)

[Scott]

no, its 11:59:59 PM Eastern time, that's when the stats reset for me :)

So I still have a chance?

[LiNuX]

So I still have a chance?

yup, about 5 hours more time for you lol

[rukisuto]

no, its 11:59:59 PM Eastern time, that's when the stats reset for me :)

Excuse my inacurracy, lol.

[LiNuX]

updated this one more time, conman got pushed back by a few dozen posts

i didn't update the real posts or its percentages! didn't have the time to search that right now since im heading out soon

good job to everyone in advanced! about 3 and a half hours to go.

[conman1000]

I'm coming back in a minute.

Edit: Goal completed.

[Trunks]

I'm so close to 50% real post lol.

[rukisuto]

My pecentage has gone down significantly.
Hopefully it's still above 50%.

[Samus-Fan]

I think it is safe to say that I didn't make it. Lol.

Just wondering how you check how many posts you have for the month...I wanna see how close I was.

[conman1000]

You had 542 and came in 7th, 6th has 1,151.

[Samus-Fan]

HOLY CRAP!
Lol. Only a 500 post difference there.
But how do can I check by my self, just for future reference?

[conman1000]

Very top of the page, hit Top Gamers.

[LiNuX]

this is over - stats are updated for the final time, scott lost at the end :(

the only accurate real posts number belongs to Rukisuto since she was the only once close enough to make it in the first place - the others have not been updated!!

prizes will be given out by this coming weekend

congratz to jak for making exactly 3000 posts :) here is a screenshot of the thing:

http://www.gamers-forum.com/imagehosting/148bb69bd428ab.png

good job to everyone

[rukisuto]

Good job everyone!
A close battle at the end, lol.

[Scott]

lol I have over 500 more than Samus-Fan below me.

If my internet was better I'd be 3rd.....

[conman1000]

Lol, I was praying Scott wouldn't come on after I went to bed.

[Scott]

Lol, I was praying Scott wouldn't come on after I went to bed.

I never thought you would come on. After all the posting you did that day.... Next time I'll be sending you a parcel bomb :D

[LiNuX]

I wanted to apologize for the late payout but I just did it :) I completely forgot when the weekend came because I was overwhelmed with school work. I remembered while in my english class, I wanted to give it out then but my battery was almost dead so I didn't bother.

So enjoy the top 4/5 people!! I can't award myself :( don't need to anyway lol

I am hoping to hold another one like this for the end of the year along with the GF Gamer of the year contest, look forward to that!

~LiNuX

[Trunks]

I forgot all about it. I could of swore that I already got the pay lol. All well = p more for me.
