Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | The Great 10-K Challenge THE COMPETITION: MeganS and I have challenged each other to a head-to-head race to 10,000 posts. We agreed that whoever reached 9,990 first had to wait for the other one to catch up. Once we're both at 9,990, we will meet on the same thread and race to 10-K.

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | (Sorry, had to reply to the last post to make sure I caught her. She was 50 ahead of me earlier tonight) THE HISTORY: Megan Joined YT in May 2005. I joined in June 2005. She beat me to every significant milestone UNTIL 7,000. When I realized I was a few posts ahead of her, I made a marathon run at 7-K. She caught on to my ploy too late. I beat her to 7-K by several posts. MEGAN'S REVENGE: After that, she kicked my butt to both 8-K and 9-K. Such a child! AKYORKIE'S REVENGE: I got hooked on the game threads and found myself several hundred posts ahead of her when she returned from a recent vacation. THE DEAL: Rather than make a teenager stay up all night trying to catch me, I agreed to wait if she agreed not to pass me. Today, she (apparently) lived up to her end of the deal. She hit 9,982 and sent me an e-mail to tell me I was 50 behind. The brat. So I've been up for the last hour catching her. Which I do with this post. THE SHOWDOWN: Stay tuned. I'm going to suggest to her that we both hit 9,990, then meet in YT chat to get someone to give us the official GO! First to reach 10-K has eternal bragging rights. THE TIME: I'm not sure when she's going to be available. I'm going to suggest 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time today.

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | haha thank you guys! I sent Mike another email - I have work today from 3-7, and I don't think my boss will let me call out for a virtual race. So we'll probably end up doing it tomorrow, I think. PS - sorry Mike, make another post.

I will do it right now! But WHERE IS SHE? Nowhere. Maybe I'll just go on to 10-K by myself. That'll teacher her to trust anybody over 30. I mean 40. Uh, 50. Nah, I e-mailed and asked her if we can do it at 5:30 her time tomorrow. Of course, it's a holiday and everyone will probably be gone. No worries. It's a done deal. I'm gonna win.

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | Megan and I have agreed on 5:30 p.m. Eastern time tomorrow. Either one of us reserves the right to postpone if life gets in the way.

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | We'll try, honest! I just know that the teenagers in my family struggle with appointments. OK, and there's alway a chance my wife tells me it's childish for us to delay heading out to the last day of the state fair so I can trash talk online with Megan. But I've got preliminary approval.
