Top 50 Posters Extrapolated, July 2006

Life in the fast lane

If the current Top 10 posters continue at their 6-month post rates, here are the dates on which they will pass each other, and the resulting relative orderings. Note that these lists are the positions of the current Top 10 relative to each other, not the ten who will be in Top 10 on these dates. For example, mkrishnan is projected to be in the Top 10 within 6 months, but isn't one of the current Top 10 for whom these date predictions apply.

Thanks again for the stats Doctor Q, however I'm afraid I'm going to have to throw a wrench in these predictions. As of July 19th I'm away on 3 weeks of vacation and it is doubtful I will be on MacRumors at all until mid-August. So, I'll essentially be a month behind on those dates by my estimates.

Yes, but we all can be sure you will make up for it lol:D
 
At long last, I have decided to reveal how I compute all these statistics. I have a secret weapon... a giant calculator!

It's got everything a math geek could possibly want - all four functions, a Clear Entry button, and it even does percentages!

So now you know my secret. Whew! I feel better now that I've 'fessed up. :eek:

my god, you've been liveing a sham all this time


(oh and can you switch me back to being a 601, thanks, being a stealth demi rules)
 
Doctor Q, I love it! Thank you for fessing up your secret, it makes you seem less omnipotent now, so perhaps more MR members will have an easier time relating to you. What a truly noble gesture.

(Notice I said less omnipotent. You still have a great deal of omnipotentness in my books... :cool: )
 
This is the first time I have checked out one of these extrapolation threads, and I think it's sad. :( I see all these names up on the Top 50 that I recognize from back in the day but haven't seen in a long time. On one hand it's amazing that they can still be up there even after all this time away, but on the other hand we no longer have their input and reassuring 'tars.

I'm glad somebody here knows what e's talking about.

What would really be nice would be to make a Top 50 list based on quality of posts rather than on quantity of posts. All I need is a volunteer to rate all 2.7 million posts at MacRumors, each on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being spam and 10 being outstanding-post-of-the-week. Make a spreadsheet with member name, post number, and post rating, and then I'll be glad to do the rest. :)
