Tonight there is a big interstate match in Australia between the CaneToads and the Cockroaches!

The Roaches will be thrashed and then you'll have a few less to worry about.

The Roaches are self-destructing pre-match as it is. I reckon they're just trying to get out of playing.

What was in the bottle(s)?

Yep, on some machines I log in automatically under d'oldfoxx, or even doldefoxx or zoldfoxx. It goes back to the fact that I sometimes draw a blank on my current password when I have a PC that does not log me in automatically, and rather than mess with support, I just set up a different account, wherever I am. I could care less about post counts, monstly because I don't know what purpose they serve.

As far as I can see, your post counts do the following:

1: Give you status
2: Get up everyone elses nose.
3: Play havoc with El_Choni's roachaphobia so he prefers to work on coding neat things like TailBite.
.... an important and valuable reason for counts!
4: Lift your intelligence

I immediately grasped the importance of point 4, and rapidly raised my post count to the expert level. This meant I did not have to bother reading the manual or otherwise learning anything at all.

The code I cut reflects the effectiveness of this approach.

In other words, point count is about as useful as trying to lift jello up to your mouth with a pair of chopsticks.

I guess that is what mine amounts to too.

Oh, and I though all the way that a low number meant you spent more time coding than posting.
