Hi Nickl,

you could try to use Merijn's (=procura) statistics to calculate that yourself, but showing that information could spoil the competition, couldn't it?

So, I guess we will all have to wait till 1st of august, or so...

Regards,
Wodisch

Hi Wodish

Actually there was a hidden motive for the question but it doesn'nt seem to have worked (see 1000 pages thread).

I am not really worried about the competition as I don't have nearly enough free time to stay in the running (And I've got a Jornada anyway) :@)

The ITRC is no competition of any kind.
It is a forum for sharing our knowledge but nothing else.
Should this forum turn into a competition (and there are signs pointing to this direction) I will leave it.

Regards
Rainer

Don't worry Rainer I was only refering to the competition being organised by HP - See this thread from Dan

As long as its treated in the spirit its intended (ie a bit of fun and to encourage more participation) then I can't see that theres a problem ?

Nick,

He's a clever one, that Dan. He wouldn't even reply to either of my two congratulatory threads - he normally does, but not this time!

But if Dan is that desperate in not wanting any points, he - of course - *is* able to pre-asign 0 points to his reply before the thread owner is ably to asign any points. It's cheating, I know.
