it could easily change . . . . .    ;D

If the bar gets any higher, I will have carpal tunnel and will never get to be brew master

I get this sinking feeling about my pending promotion

That would be totally funny to have a moving bar, based on Denny's numbers.
So like Denny - 2500 = 1st kit, Denny - 2000 = noob braumeister .....

Eventually it would take 10K posts to get out of 1st kit ranking. And that's ok because it's all a joke anyway, this would just make it a bigger one. Actually maybe everyone would chill out about their "rank"  if we went to this model.
The moral majority, is neither.

OK I don't get it what are the stars about? I thought they coincided with the other rankings(titles) and just kept increasing  on your way to Denny-dom.  :)

Oh great! I thought maybe it would be something implying that I don't have a life and spend way too much time on here. But this is GREAT!  ::) :o ::)

So thanks everyone for the congrats, the angry smileys, the milky way jokes - I'd like to thank.....

 Someone (Vince Lombardi ?) once said "Its not if you win or lose but how you play the game."

 The late, great, by god, Paul "Bear" Bryant said: "If winning's not important, then why are they keeping score?"

 I don't know if this has anything to do with this topic or not, I just wanted another post. ;D

Beerocd thinks Tubercle's problem is Tubercle is not argumentative enough.

Tasts great.. less filling
You got peanut butter on my chocolate...
Ginger vs Mary Anne

All great examples of arguments that can't be won, and can go on forever. Rocketing you into Denny territory.

Post counts, and titles based on them, are stupid in my opinion. Just because you type a lot or have a lot of excess time on your hands, doesn't make you a better brewer.

Never had my beer have ya!  ;D

If I ever find myself getting close to the 1000 post count, I'm going to take a serious look at getting a life.
