Who thinks they will ever make Deity? Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Since I don't want only Trip to be able to respond you are free to mention other posters you think will make it.

Personally I doubt I will ever make 10,000 posts. At around 6/day it would take me just over 3 years.

As to others it looks like Jay Bee is next, though I am not familiar with his posts.

People like UR are close, but post quite rarely on topic. Many of the top posters only post sporadically on topic or at all.

Posters like Arnelos who made emperor in a very short space of time seem to have slowed down now - all that spamming is hard work.

Maybe NYE, but he is still 14 months away at current rates.

N.B Existing Deities please resist the temptation to say "me".

So who?

Hehe you are the master of commenting on spam......metaspam if you will. IIRC you even had a post with lots of different brands of spam in it, which I found quite amusing in a postmodern self-referential type way.

I was hoping you'd start a thread with it, but I can understand you didn't want to lose what you see as your lofty position with regards to spamming moral high ground.

But I am on to you - the metaspamming cat is out of the bag.

Back to deities.........not that many people expressing confidence. I wonder where Trip is.

Jay Bee mods an on-topic forum, iirc, so he should make it. Maybe War4 and rah will make it along with a bunch of civ3 dgers.

I'd take just under three years at this rate. However, I plan to be almost entirely away from Apolyton for at least 6 months next year, so it'll be more like four.

I for one have a less ambitious goal: Becomming King. I have a couple hundred posts left, but as I post an average of 1,8 or something(I guess) posts per day the last months, I need the summer to do so.
(BTW, my average for all my time as registred is 0.9 for the moment, so deity? No! )
