I see that CarZee is soon to outpost our noble leader.

Maybe Ted should write some code that always keeps Carzee a tantalising two posts less than him

This is just how big monarchies were putsch'ed in history, but I won't acknowledge any other than Ted

>> Edited to add: It'll take approximately ten days in case both have a constant speed; but the trend for Mr. Zee is exponential

Cunning ruse, Domster, very clever.

But I think I know the truth. The triumvirate of Domst, Ted & Zee is but one and the same.

It's a sort of strange X-men conspiracy, requiring the sort of X-Files perception that only Mulder or Scully has.

(I can hear the sirens already...)

Last time I was catching him up he did a quick hack and increased his number of posts by about 2000 (according to Mrz Zee who is my official recorder on these matters)..

so in reality Ted's a speck in my rear view mirror

If PetrolBlair were involved, I think it would be a case of 'We've changed how we measure posting, and there is no longer a valid comparison, so we'll have to start the figures again'.

Yeah - I wasn't convinced by Mrs Zee's assertion but she's quite insistant and I don't doubt that she scrutinises my PH activity with enough diligence to notice something like that.. after all, it's only because she emails me to tell me that I know if I'm coming up to x thousand posts.. (until the new stats thing recently..)..

Just checked the database (all in the interests of clearing my name, obviously ) and...

Topics started: Carzee( 266 ), Ted ( 347 )
Replies: Carzee( 5463 ), Ted ( 5323 )
Totals: Carzee( 5729 ), Ted ( 5670 )

Mrs Zee is cordially invited to audit my database

Well, I have to concur with Mrs Zee's observations. I too noticed that Ted's postings rocketed about 6 months ago or so.

So then Ted, can we audit your trail? Sounds pretty unpleasant to me though. Maybe not.
