Let me go on record of agreeing with p5. For me to be in agreement with both p5 and LK all in the same week is amazing. Must be some strange lunar phenomenon or something. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />

It was something that was a time-killer and a post inflator (I knew I was getting near 5000 and I wanted to go ahead and get it over with). Plus, IF someone was over in that thread and wasn't near a TV, they could follow the game. You have to admit, I did do a good job following the game...
It wasn't meant as something harmful or something that could've crashed the boards. The posts were spaced out over :30-:45+ seconds.

In JJ's defense, he was posting every couple of minutes rather than every second as with previous PPPP efforts. However, just because it doesn't crash the server in no way means that it's not PPPP, even if it's the "legal" kind.
And I would have left this alone had you not come in here bragging about your post count <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="tongue.gif" />
