Wow this time it's spread out, from 20 days later to late November . Previously, the guesses would typically span over the next 2 months.

By the way I just found the explanation I found seems incorrect:

code:
Total Posts: 2948 (5.55 posts per day) Posts Stats: A: 42 | D: 99 | M: 21 | HP: 76


Is what I have before this post.
If the "HP" rating indeed counted from 0 to 99 and then zeroed adding 1 to A I would be having

42 * 100 + 76 = 4276 posts

whereas I only have

2948

and from the first sight I don't see any similarities between those two numbers.
I am also aware that there are actions which would lower my post count, but I've never taken such (that's for sure).


A little flaming and a little OT doesn't count I guess..

Could you be so kind and direct me to a person which really knows something about this "Posts Status" feature and could tell me how exactly it works?

I thought this is the right forum, but probably there's none in entire Poly, so I hope there's at least the right person.

I see the doom of this thread since someone (I'll better not tell what I think of him) changed the thread title.

Well, what can I say guys.

There have been over 10 replies now, only one had a bit of information which seems incorrect and when I ask for the correct one there's noone who'd bother answering.

It is nice to have fun over someone/something, but what I see here is childish.

Have fun

Hmm, I wanted to know something, I asked, I got almost no info, as the tiny quote I got was incorrect, I asked if it was correct as my calculations showed it was not.
At last I asked to point me to a person who'd take my question serious.

NONE of my questions have been answered.

All I was asking a single "try asking thatandthat" from anyone who knew whom to ask.
Was that really so hard?

I mean, you're active, you're posting, you most probably know the answers, then what's the problem to write a few symbols more and, between this pitiful bidding, actually answer the question?

Or are you all admins, inmates and all the other "community" there just and only to make fun?

Probably I shouldn't take Poly so seriously and go search answers at any other place.

The numbers don't roll into each other.

A is a reference to the number of posts you have made. It fits into a logarithmic fornula rounded down to the nearest whole number.

HP is a reference to the percentage of the way you are to reaching the next level of A.

D shows how good your average posts per day is in comparison to an average of 5(changed from 3) posts per day

M shows (as before) how much you have posted in connection with how long you have been registered .

ACK!

I had two dates in mind, both already taken.........so how about August 8

Looks like it is getting harder to call this one, with a longer sread between dates, but I think November is a bit optimistic on the part of those taking that date.

And as for binTravkin, I think the reason that you are having trouble getting an answer is the same reason taht you and so many others have asked before you, it is not a simple calculation to figure out, and though I am sure MarkG or DanQ know the answer, they aren't telling, and the answers given by Solver and Tuberski are the calculations by those who have spent the time trying to figure it out. Most of us have just accepted the answers given without over analyzing the answer (checking if correct).

I find it interesting who asks the questions (you for instance I have never seen post on A/C, so I assume as a king that you mainly post somewhere else...likely Alpha Centuri by your icons, but definetely not in any of the forums I frequent, was this question what brought you to A/C as it has others in the past, or do you read the A/C forum?), others seem more interested in who gets the right date. Either way, it is all good .

However, he has the dubious honour of being the most inaccurate winner in recent memory.
