Top 40 Posters

New Topic
This topic has been archived, and won't accept reply postings.
The Top 40 Posters thread has grown quite large, and so I'm starting a new one, for 2002 postings.
Here are the 10 most prolific contributors to the UKClimbing forums for the week, in order of number of postings, from 06/Jan/02 to 13/Jan/02.

In reply to Nick Smith: So where is it then?
Kate the mystified.
 gingerkate 20 Jan 2002
In reply to Nick Smith: That was weird: your posts were invisible to me until I replied then they appeared.
Ooh, I'm top! I've never been top before. No wonder my house is such a tip......

In reply to gingerkate:
You should see it in a mo when I have posted this, congratulations on making no 1 ;
Graham 20 Jan 2002
In reply to all:

How come I've gone from 4 to 5, but my arrow shows me going up the chart?

Something to do with me wrongly being deprived of my ? last week I think.

Marc Chrysanthou 20 Jan 2002
In reply to sutty: This ToP 40 'Hit Parade' is a charade. I'm not in the top 40 - probably not in the Top 400 - and yet, I have asked pen-friends in Bulgaria, Poland, Latvia and Yemen to post as 'Marc C' every minute of every hour over the last 2 weeks.

So, where are all these 'overseas' postings of 'mine' going ? How RT can claim with any credibility to be the 'International Mouthpiece of Deskbound and Moribund Climbers' is beyond me, when quite obviously our international brethren are being excluded and marginalised. Incase you think I'm taking it all too seriously: Think. When was the last time anyone from Botswana or even Rutland posted ?
 Tyler 20 Jan 2002
In reply to gingerkate:
How do you lot manage it? I'm off project at the moment which means I have nothing to do, I spend an unhealthy amount of time on RT and generally add somthing to all the threads I'm interested in, and still I don't make the top ten. Honestly, I thought I was a slacker but you lot...
Graham 20 Jan 2002
In reply to Marc Chrysanthou:

I'm in Leicester, which is near Rutland, and I have been to Rutland. Does that count?

Marc Chrysanthou 20 Jan 2002
In reply to Tyler: Stalinist-style 'democracy' my friend. I was chatting with one of the backroom boys of RT in a pub in Lowestoft (where he works as a Life Guard at an Old People's Home) last night, and in an unguarded moment (after a few beers) he let slip that several Top 10 posters have their postings 'weighted' and 'multiplied' according to their political allegiances (e.g. position on the toproping issue, attitudes to bearded climbers, etc.).

He rang me this morning trying to disown what he said (in case I went to the News of the World), but I have it all on tape.

 Marc C 27 Jan 2002
In reply to Igneous Wok: In my prime, I managed more than that, but never made it beyond No. 3. Very difficult, when confronted by your wife with the unyielding and undeniable mathematical evidence of 30-40 postings a day, to pretend 'it's just a bit of a hobby' OR 'of course I'm not addicted!'

We look forward to seeing you at the clinic in the morning. DON'T try to smuggle any laptops, palmtops, WAP-phones, etc. in with you. The quarantine is for your own good. Of course, you'll never be totally cured, but the therapy will move you beyond denial and the ECT will extirpate the overwhelming urge to see where you are in the Top 40.

In reply to Tim: I was supposed to be revising last week...
MadBadger 04 Feb 2002
In reply to Igneous Wok:

And I post at work...

Seems the number of posts overall was down last week...is this because we moved off top-roping for a bit? Or did people get a life? I think we should be told.
Igneous Wok 04 Feb 2002
In reply to MadBadger: I think perhaps the number of posts attributed to myself and horse probably had a toproping them, yeess. Ginger Kate, you have reformed!! (leaving me feeling even sadder than before)
 Mark Stevenson 05 Feb 2002
In reply to Nick Smith: I don't believe it - despite trying to restrict myself to sensible and informative posts I've actually made it into the top 40.

Worse -what is my life coming to that I am even bothered about the fact?

Nick, Is it possible to have a cumulative top 40 list as well for 2002. Perhaps at the end of the year we could then have a prize for the most prolific poster of the year.

In reply to Nick Smith:

What happened to the favourite flying insect thread? Did you delete it or was it automatic? I don't particularly want it back, I'm just curious. Is there some house-keeping software that deletes things like that (when it updated the top 40 posters list)?
In reply to Vdiff Dave: I happened to be online late last night, noticed all the duplicated posts and deleted them. When I have a chance I'll look into how it is possible to make duplicated posts, since it is obviously a bug in the system.

Sorry, but while we can delete individual posts, it would have taken a long time to delete over 100 duplicates, rather than just delete the whole thread, so I did that instead.

Cheers

Glad u had a nice time Mick. Warren's name is the only one that means anything to me on that list :-;

I slept on the floor last night.
 Michael Ryan 26 May 2002
In reply to jo:

Yvon Chouinard owned Chouinard Equpment now Black Diamond and also started and owns Patagonia (the clothing company not the region)......he also did sig FA on El Cap and elsewhere....

Royal Robbins was the high priest of "clean climbing" in the USA, after a trip to the UK - also major first ascents on El Cap........the Angel Gabriel to Warren Hardings Lucifer.......

You really must read up on your climbing history Jo if you are to have any sense of who we are and how we got where we are today....

..history makes climbing more fun.....

For example when I onsight every problem on Adam's Rock I want to know who did them first, what they are called and that the problems were major projects for the first ascensionists....it will make my ascents so much sweeter......

on the floor?

In reply to Mick - Rockfax USA: straight to the top in the name dropping stakes...how many heroes can you get in one room...I love the history of climbing and that these guys were so far out there so long ago...must have been an interesting night

In reply to francoise: significant First Ascent
Ian Hill 26 May 2002
In reply to jo: bloody hell...you haven't heard of RR or YC? Heroes all...read Games Climbers Play or similar...that's like a footballer saying he didn't know we won the World Cup in 1966...
 sutty 26 May 2002
In reply to Mick - Rockfax USA:
Do you remember the original Chouinard catalogue with bits of poetry and sayings in? Seemed to be a limited edition as everyone wanted one but only a few got them.
Probably a better read than a lot of mags.
Met Royal a couple of times, he came down the tans one night. For a small club there were a lot of top lads visited from time to time.
Has your head cleared after the do, sounds like the chat went on all night.

Got a treasured copy Sutty - in good condition too....with the Japanese Wave on the front...lots of Ken Wilson shots of Gogarth.that shot of Ed Ward-Drummond on Dream Of White Horses..and Doug Robinson's treatise on "clean climbing" vedy clean..

....there where so many greats of USA climbing there last night I thought I better stop at RR and YC....an absolutly brilliant night....climbing all day too....too many beers...Tequila shots ...and mad dancing....I kissed Airlie Anderson...I think her boyfriend punnched me...Heavy Duty from Halifax rummy drunk....and stopped by the cops on the way home.....the Misses Gabriella was driving thank the Lord...kids and the dog had a great time too...
