PMS Statistics and Progress Analyzation

6/30/08: ATTN ALL: Expect updates soon.

As our quest to get one million posts in a single thread continues, it becomes interesting to track our progress and relevant statistics. I have taken it upon myself to make a compilation of all the different statistics, milestone posts (trophies), and track our monthly progress.

You can help me keep this updated by posting and suggesting more content here. Help me build this thread, track the progress of 1milget, and make this more fun for all of us.


Disclaimer : The statistics and names mentioned in this thread do not have any meaningful bearing on 1milget. The fact that trophies are 5k intervals is purely arbitrary, and on the basis that one only comes around every week or two (now every few days). The trophies are merely intended to encourage people to race forward and post more. The same applies to the list of top posters. Money is currently only being given out to those who get posts at 20k intervals, and the top three posters. Please see the rules thread for more details.

Random Facts
(Last Updated : April 1, 2007)


There's only ever been one non-PMSer to get a trophy, and that was TK_Killer (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=112243) for the 55,000th post.
More than half (the majority) of total posts so far have been by the PMS Gurus (top seven posters)!
PMS-Sane (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=1076692) is the most active user with an average rate of over 500 posts per day.
PMS-Benjamin_Harrison (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=110742) was the highest posting PMS Guru for 1 year.
February 25, 2007 is the only day there's ever been two trophies in one day.

All Trophy Dates up to 270,000
Fact #5

[PMS-Fantasticone]

That's right. Top of the leader board.

[PMS-Sane]

:p That was a quick reply

[PMS-Fantasticone]

So the rate of posting from February to March is bigger. Cool.

[PMS-Sane]

Yeah, pretty cool huh?

I think that's mainly due to shox lending out his account. We went totally nuts on that thing. Had a rate larger than almost all of last year's rates put together. :p

The rate's also been at an all time high ever since I joined. ;)

[PMS_Xandertrax]

There is one flaw to this, which I don't know if you know of or not.

One or two posts were deleted somewhere between 0 and 100k, which led to the offset of a LOT of trophies.

Not sure if you accounted for that...

If you REALLY had some time, i'm sure you could go around and check around the posts, to see if there was any "grats ____" or something.

Just FYI.

AMAZING conglomeration of info, though. Thanks a LOT.

[PMS-Sane]

Oh, I wasn't aware of that at all. Thanks for the information. I won't bother changing anything because they are what they are. But if anyone wants to file a claim for one of the trophies, I'll give it to them if they show me reasonable evidence that they actually got it.

And thanks, it took me a while to do, but it was worth it. It'll be interesting to track 1milget and see how it progresses. We also didn't even know who the top posters were before. XD

Hopefully this will attract some new members, and encourage older ones to bump up their post count.

If there's anything you feel missing, or a stat that you'd like to see there, let me know. One thing I'm thinking of adding is the top trophy holders-- I'm just afraid that might piss some people off because I'm making trophies appear too important.

[meno_rocks123]

this makes me want to go whore up the 1mil get. brb

[PMS-Sane]

Added another fact: More than half (the majority) of total posts so far have been by the PMS Gurus (top seven posters)!

:o

[PMS_Doug31]

I was the real getter of the 100000th post lol.

[PMS-Sane]

Okay, thanks. Added. :)

[hi19hi19]

Just get gaia to come in here.

They hit a million posts all the time.

Heck, they have a challenge going to get to 1 million PAGES!

[PMS-Sane]

That's kind of depressing. I don't want to think about that. ;)

And besides, that's just 20 1milgets. Haha.

[TheRapingDragon]

Even though I hate PMS with a passion, I must say that this is a good thread. Nice bunch of information you got there.

[PMS-Sane]

Thanks. Yes, I'm hoping this thread can make PMS appear better to people who dislike it. Why do you hate it so much though?

Thread is updated.

265k Trophy has been claimed by PMS_Doug31 (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=110554)
Added fact #3 and #4 to the list
Updated Highest Posters
Added a number beside each username in the Highest Posters, to show how many ranks that user has moved since the beginning of the month

[TheRapingDragon]

I hate it so much because it is pretty much just a post-whoring event. I mean djshox started it as a post to a million squad, but with actual content. Hell, the original rules (don't know about them now) stated that you had to keep posts with content, and not to just needlessly spam.

Yet look at the thread now, why should anyone even bother to go into the thread to look at it, all you get is a few posts per minute consisting of garbage and spam. It's worthless for being on a forum. If the posts had content then the thread would be fine by me, but why do I hate it? Because it's worthless, and the posts are a waste of space.

[PMS-Sane]

Yeah, that's pretty valid I'd say...

I didn't even know that the rules once said that posts had to be meaningful. Wow.

Well anyways, when there's more than one person, we usually do talk. There can be a lot of conversation in the thread at times. Maybe not as much as there used to be, but we do talk. For example, I'm talking to Xandertrax at this very moment. We also get to know more about eachother as we progress to 1 million. So it's not exactly just a post-whoring event. And even the meaningless posts still raise FFR's forum statistics, and appearance on Google (I believe...).

I wonder if the changing of rules is anyhow connected to the major lack in different posters. This thread used to have a few dozen regulars, now it has less than a dozen.

[PMS_Xandertrax]

Here is some more information for the thread, the dates that each trophy was gotten, of the first thread. I'll get around to the other ones, I just need to go right now.

Edit: 2nd thread done.

[PMS_RLY]

Hai Gais... I just made 500 Get!

Can I be put on the list?

[PMS-EdBoy]

I'm on the Honourables list.

I'll move up fast, though. ;)

[PMS-Sane]

Thank-you so much for the list Xandertrax! That's great. It'll make things so much easier to do the next update.

Yay! Two new honourables! :D

I'll update the lists, and add the trophy dates and records tomorrow. Happy posting!

[PMS-EdBoy]

If you're lucky, you won't even have to put me on the honorables list.

I'll be right up on the leaders list.

[PMS-Sane]

March 12th Update:

Three new Honourables: pms-itmorr (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=1148224), PMS_RLY (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=1041014) and PMS-EdBoy (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=1008648)
270k GET'd by PMS-Sane (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=1076692)
Updated Highest Posters
Added new section "Trophy Holders" to rank the top Trophy holders
Added new section "Credits" to credit those who have contributed to this topic
Added fact #5
Added all of the trophy dates up to 270,000

[pms-itmorr]

Oh cool! Thanks. By the way, I just noticed my old pms-xoombot account got the first 5000. Pretty awesome :).

[PMS_Xandertrax]

Sup sane...

I think itmorr has you beat for most active user. Check out his profile. XD

[PMS-Sane]

pms-itmorr is cheating in PMS

For 4 straight hours, his account was posting numbers at 10 seconds intervals. Whenever someone stopped in, he would reply with an alternate account, while his other account kept posting.

Someone stopped in, and asked if he was having fun doing this. He replied with his alternate account and said: "well, I don't have to type anything".

Then when I came in and started posting in the thread, his account kept on posting. I had to post three times before his "alternate" account came in and said "hi". Meanwhile, his other account just kept posting. When I asked him if he was cheating, he denied it with a post with his other account again... and his normal account just kept counting.

At one point, he even said "brb" with his alternate account. And his normal account kept posting. Then he said "back" five posts later with his alternate. Clearly he can't keep posting if he's away from the computer. I asked him how he did that, and he said "my cat was posting for me" with his alternate.

Then I told him I was reporting him to you for cheating, and again... with his other account he posted "So..." and kept on posting numbers with his normal account. Then he said nothing more.

And a bit later, he posted AGAIN with his alternate account saying: "Plus I'm not doing anything against the rules!". This presumably incites that since the rules don't say a bot can't be used, he can use one. While he posted this with his alternate, his normal account just kept on posting. His normal account, all this time, still hasn't said one thing yet for the last 4 hours.

He even managed to make a comment on my comment wall at http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/profile/PMS-Sane/ while his normal account kept posting. Post 73932 told me to check my wall, and he posted that with his alternate.

After I told him that you would delete his account, it took him about 10 posts before he was able to type out (with his alternate... again): "oooooooookaaaaaaaaaaay.. But you still haven't pointed out any rules that were broken in this harmless fun". So obviously he just doesn't consider it cheating.

Finally, one of his alts is "xoom bot" which is clearly some sort of label for a bot that rapidly posts.

In summary, his normal account is some sort of rogue bot that just rapidly counts four hours upon hours. He talks to people with alternate accounts when they stop in.

I'd appreciate it if you can further investigate this. I'm already 100% sure that this guy is cheating. It's most certainly obvious if you check the thread around posts 73900. If there's any way Tass can check the logs for signs of a bot posting to confirm this, that'd be great.

What a ****er.

[itmorr]

Finally, one of his alts is "xoom bot" which is clearly some sort of label for a bot that rapidly posts.

That part made me lol because xoombot is actually tobmoox backwards ;). Yeah I'm playing around with a couple extra computers running bots though. Feel free to ban the pms-itmorr account; it's not a big deal and was all for fun.

[PMS_Xandertrax]

How do you get something to constantly post?

huh.

interesting.

Nice catch, sane.

[PMS-Sane]

Presumably the same way people cheat on games like WoW and Runescape. I wish shox would come online and just ban this guy already.

I'm thinking of maybe convincing shox to let me have mod powers, since I'm the most active user and would be able to immediately fix any problems likely faster than anyone else. Also, he hasn't updated the rules thread since March 2, it's been 10 full days now.

Furthermore, posts are getting deleted, and have to be restored. When the posts are restored they will bump all posts before it up a certain amount, deciding arbitrarily which post beforehand was the trophy post (yes I know, a stupid rule). So they should be restored as soon as possible, hopefully before 80k. I'm not sure if he's going to catch and restore all of the posts next time he logs in.

[itmorr]

Xander: I used something called Xautomation to write the script on one computer. On the second computer, I rewrote the same basic script in Autoit.

ALSO.. It wouldn't be hard to write it so that instead of counting up, it would type in random strings like asdffdsafdsfdas or lgkljglkjlg or something to make it more believable. I wouldn't be suprised if some certain PMS users *Caugh Sane* have already figured that out. You could even do that with multiple accounts by opening up tons of browsers and configuring the bot for each one. Not to say anyone here has ever cheated before, but it sure wouldn't be hard, and I wouldn't be surprised if some of the alt users have tried it.

ALSO2.. Is this against the rules?

[PMS-Sane]

I'm not even going to bother. You're really starting to get on my nerves. You're still cheating even though you've admitted to it. Just ****ing stop already.

[pms-itmorr]

Dude Sane I'm totally using a script of some sort. It was DEFINITELY written in xautomation and autoit. Don't you believe me?? ;D

[itmorr]

Sorry for using a script earlier :).

[PMS-Benjamin_Harrison]

Post

[PMS-Sane]

Yo Ben! :D

Come around more. We miss ya!

[PMS-Sane]

March 14th Update:

Highest posters updated
PMS-Sane (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=1076692) hits 40k posts, taking first place
Didn't update trophies, as an indefnite amount of posts need to be restored before determining who actually got them

[PMS_Xandertrax]

Got some new highest posters:

PMS_Yoda is now a leader!

PMS_IgpayAtinlay is honorable!

[PMS-Sane]

Yay!

I anticipated more posts on your original account by this time though Xandy. :confused:

:cry:

[PMS_Xandertrax]

Eh, I've been doing other stuff.

Plus, I've had a headache most of the week, and haven't been able to sit and stare at the computer screen for too long. XD

Stupid wisdom teeth.

If I can, I'm hoping to put in 750 posts a day, this week.

Hopefully!

[PMS_Postwhore]

wow thats cool! watch i'm gonna get 5k soon.

edit: i'm # 11! :)

[PMS-Fantasticone]

Sorry but life was being a bitch on me. ANyway the fillowing things I want to say:

Xandertrax: Cool avatar, should be for the coolest in PMS but that isn't a award.

I have the sexist avatar and I will again say it.

Imorr you cheater, serves you right.

Postwhore: Screw you, I'm top in that list and I will stay there.

Sane: Congrats on getting the most postcount.

K bye.

[Draigun]

Q. Are multiple accounts allowed for trophies?

A. Yes they are, but not for Sponsored Posts

...

160,000 (01/14/07) - PMS-Sane (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=1076692)
180,000 (02/01/07) - PMS-Sane-5 (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=1090088)
lol.. what.

[PMS-Sane]

lol.. what.

I was waiting for someone to ask about that. PMS applied that rule after I got that trophy with a multiple account. I believe that's actually "why" PMS-djshox created that rule.

;)

[PMS_Postwhore]

fix me on the list, i passed fantasticone. :)

[Fantasticone]

I got lazy but don't worry.

[Doug31]

Ugh, we've been removed from the most prolific posters list, but at least hopefully this means our post counts won't be reduced anymore.

[PMS_Xandertrax]

That would be nice.

posts restored too?

i hope.

In any case, I have a question.

Could we have a section in the first post for Random Awards?
random stuff like

best av, best posts, worst posts, best sig, etc, etc, whatever you want to think of.

Just a thought.

[PMS-Sane]

Could we have a section in the first post for Random Awards?
random stuff like

best av, best posts, worst posts, best sig, etc, etc, whatever you want to think of.

I had that idea when I made this thread. However I never implemented since I was afraid people would flame me for being self-indulgent in my contributions to PMS (it probably already appears that way).

If one more person agrees with you, I'll start discussions for awards, nominations, and then we'll do regular polls (every 3-6 months) to hand out the awards.

I'll disclude myself from the awards, unless it's something satirical like "Most Worthless Contributions". ;)

[PMS_Xandertrax]

I know Fantasticone was for the awards.

brb getting him.

[PMS_Postwhore]

Could we have a section in the first post for Random Awards?
random stuff like

best av, best posts, worst posts, best sig, etc, etc, whatever you want to think of.

Just a thought.
I concur.

[PMS-Sane]

I'll get to it soon. If I can sit my ass down and structure this before April, it'll be a routine thing starting April.

[PMS-Marvelousone]

If one more person agrees with you, I'll start discussions for awards, nominations, and then we'll do regular polls (every 3-6 months) to hand out the awards.


I agree with Xandertrax.

[PMS-Sane]

I agree with Xandertrax.

This is an alternate of Fantasticone, correct?

[PMS-Marvelousone]

I figure once my post count reached 4999, I make a new account and make another 4999.

[PMS-Sane]

Oh jesus!

Maybe you're just taking this thread a little too seriously? :roll:

[PMS-Marvelousone]

No cause if I can't win guru leader board then I win the other one.

[PMS-Sane]

March 21st Update:

Updated "Top Posters"
Still haven't updated trophies since shox hasn't identified the "real" winners yet
Planning the start of "PMS Awards"

[PMS_Xandertrax]

Awesome!

I'll help out in the planning of the awards.

We can come up with ideas in the thre...

WOAH

*triple take*

WE GOT OUR REAL POSTCOUNTS BACK!

[PMS_Postwhore]

[PMS_Xandertrax]

OK.

Here are my ideas for PMS Awards.

Best Poster
Worst Poster
Best Avvie
Best Siggie
Best Personality (?)
Best Post (?)
Worst Post (?)
Best Alternate Account (?)


Plus, we could give some other non-voting awards, like

Highest Postcount
Dedication Award (Who's been posting the longest)
the Get-Master

Thats all I can think of now, I'll try to think of more.

[PMS-CrashJet555]

i agree

[PMS_Postwhore]

OK.

Here are my ideas for PMS Awards.

Best Poster
Worst Poster
Best Avvie
Best Siggie
Best Personality (?)
Best Post (?)
Worst Post (?)
Best Alternate Account (?)


Plus, we could give some other non-voting awards, like

Highest Postcount
Dedication Award (Who's been posting the longest)

Thats all I can think of now, I'll try to think of more.

Best Poster - PMS-Benjamin_Harrison
Worst Poster - PMS_Postwhore
Best Avvie - i have it disabled
Best Siggie - disabled
Best Personality (?) - PMS_Doug31
Best Post (?) - no idea
Worst Post (?) - no idea
Best Alternate Account (?) - PMS_Yoda :)


Highest Postcount - PMS-Sane
Dedication Award (Who's been posting the longest) - PMS-Benjamin_Harrison, but now hes banned, so probably PMS_Doug31.
the Get-Master - PMS-Sane

[PMS_Xandertrax]

They aren't for voting on yet XD.

Just give some more ideas.

P.S. You're going to have to disable siggies and avvies for this to work well.

[PMS-Sane]

April 1st Update:

PMS_Postwhore (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=918705) takes the lead by passing PMS-Sane (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=1076692) with 45,501 posts!!
One new honourable: PMS-CrashJet555 (http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/vbz/member.php?u=1160112)
Updated timeline with a nearly record breaking post rate!
Updated stat #4

[PMS-Benjamin_Harrison]

Please fix the top posters list on the front page lol, Postwhore only has 7512 posts.

[PMS_Xandertrax]

Sup ben, you're back.

Why'd you get banned?

[PMS-Benjamin_Harrison]

I got banned because I was at school and posted a few bad things in the ct thread on an alternate account, not thinking the mods would be able to ip check me. I've been unbanned for a while now, but my computer at home hasn't been able to connect to the internet due to some hardware issues... so I have been unable to post. I'll start posting again when I can connect (hopefully soon). This post is from school btw.

[PMS-Razorflame]

Grats on all the posts.

[PMS-djshox]

Minor updates on the front page.

Expect more soon.

[PMS-djshox]

I just updated the stats for the postcount of all of the PMS members with 500 posts or more, please let me know if you see any errors or if I left anything out. Also let me know if there are any statistics that I can add. I'll update the trophy posts eventually.
