In summary, Franzbear is the most prolific thread killer in the forum. He has killed at least 12 threads and is likely responsible for 21 more. His ability to kill threads is not a direct outcome of the evidence (number of last posts). You have to at least factor in the total number of posts by each person (posts in GD) to get a more accurate representation of the killer instinct. Franz and Moonie have so many posts here, they are more likely to be the winning killers. You have to divide the number of kills by the total number of posts during the same period to get a corrected distribution.

Does starting a thread and getting no replies count as a kill?

I think we decided that's not killing, because they are stillborn.
 
  • #318

Of course you have better things to do on a Friday night. You can just leave the thread with me and it will be fine.
Now saturday mornings are a whole different story.

Wow yeah Moonbear, I followed your advice of going to bed. Best nights sleep I ever had. Thanks for keeping the thread warm for me :smile:
 
  • #321
WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING! I was casually going around, bumping up threads to the top while this one was sinking to the bottom, and bam! You put it back on the top again :cry:
 
  • #322

That's how I felt last night! The thread-killers had gone to bed, there were people willing to post in other topics, so by careful picking and choosing, they were getting bumped up without a blatantly obvious list of threads with my name as the last poster on all of them, and then someone came in and brought this thread back to the top again!

See, we all are terrible at thread-killing. This thread should have had only a short lifespan, and we may have just given it the kiss of immortality!
 
  • #325
A poisonous kiss,indeed...:-p

This one is going to go 3000 posts,undoubtedly...:devil:

  • #326
Yeah this thread is going to be around for a loooong time. It is already up to 9 pages of bs. This thread is not my child, this thread is franz's child, that is why we are all trying to kill it :smile:
 
  • #327
This is Tribdog's EVIL creation...:devil: And yes,it shouldn't be kept alive...About the bs part,i disagree,just because I've posted 25 times...:-p

Oh, you mean the few hours when I couldn't get to PF? From the time stamps on posts here, apparently nobody else could either.
 
  • #340
Well, stop crowding it then.
 
  • #341
I was sleeping too.But now I'm back to life claiming what's rightfully mine,namely this THREAD...:devil:

Danievil.
 
  • #342
What's this thing you call sleep?
 
  • #343
An activity in which u were supposed to relax,unless u're really having nightmares...

Danievil.
 
  • #344
Sleep, eh. And yeah pf was down for me too. Too bad it was not down forever, because then I would have claimed the kill.
 
  • #345
Good, everyone went to bed. Now I can get back to work :smile:
 
  • #346
eh hem, I think you took my thread
 
  • #347
This is very discouraging. I have tried to kill threads before... I get a kick out of that, but you guys refuse to cooperate.

I hereby name this thread Wyle E., after Wyle E. Coyote, because we've flatten it, squashed it under a boulder, sent it off a cliff, exploded it, and even stuck it up a rhino's rectum, yet it just scrapes itself up and keeps on going.

Yeah, tribdog was daring enough to retrieve from the rhino rectum, what a move that was. I soo thought the thread would be safe there.
 
  • #350
Hey, give credit where credit is due! I retrieved the thread from the rhino. Nobody else was daring to go there, and I had the long gloves.
