Thats 9 and the ACES done and dusted and claiming VICTORY snatched from the jaws of defeat!!!!!!!!!!!!
You missed completely section 3 that's (c) and yet claimed it as done.
Shame.
Slow but sure wins the race!!!!!!!!!

Which anhgel claimed it? I'd hate for it to be me. Thinking about it, it probably was, I'm still not entirely sure I understand how the system works.

When the 'Babe' gave out the list of what needed to be done, then 3(c) was ommitted, consequently no-one visited and so when victory was claimed it was in error. * Does dance of delight*
Aces win!!!!!!!!!
By the way have you seen the request to add the link to the writing guidelines to your greeting message Will?

Just made my son wait for his bath so I could do {c} and I am bloody annoyed. Somebody claimed that & didn't do it.
I even put out a desperate plea in Heaven for some Angel with NOTHING to do to just do this ONE block which I was told had been done.
My apologizes for claiming victory Androyd & all the other ACES.
You won fair & square.
I am sorry if it looks like we tried to cheat.
I assure you I didn't, I *was* keeping track.
Next time I will check EVERY researcher MYSELF before I announce that we have finished.
*stamping her feet & having a tantrum*
BY THE WAY Block c is done.

I won't ask you to name and shame THIS time 'cos I'm enjoying it too much.
It just reminds me of the Tortoise and the Hare - perhaps you might read that one to your son as a penance for the false claim * Androyd ducks realising he is pushing his luck* * Thinks - They're gonna really hammer us next time*
More data Veg!!!!!

POST 31.
I saw St.Bob say he'd take 30 to greet.
He took d & e.
I assumed he'd taken c,d, & e, as I'd stopped at{ b }the night before.
That's how {c} got missed.
I assume full responsibility, but BOY am I gonna kick some Angelic buts when I get back up to Heaven.
Time to do some delegating methinks.
As an archangel, I am supposed to be looking after new Angels, not greeting newbies.
When the new list is posted, I am going to delegate as many angels as needed to take a block of ten each.
Then I will do the checking.
Again, my apologies.

The big question is, What happens when I (or Tweetie) post? It helps niether the Angels or the ACEs win. Actually that question is pretty small and trivial and I wish I hadn't asked it now.

I'm on the top ten most prolific researchers and the top ten most erudite posters.

Where are these lists? They obviously don't include your postings here!!!

Babe, I accept your apology most smugly.....You know it's really cheered me up after a bad day...yes I am that sad.
Welcome Mat - Posted 3rd October 2000
androyd Posted Oct 5, 2000
Yeah that page just shows the weakness of statistics... all I've done is repetitively post the same message and as a result I'm one of the most 'erudite' on the guide. A slight problem with the definition of erudite I think.
Don't get carried away Will.....
