Guest Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I'm not so terribly far from being Apprentice. My perfectionism interferes with my ability to enjoy being "Amateur" at anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mergath Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I can't remember how many posts I have, so I have to post and find out. :tongue_smilie: ETA: If deleted posts counted, I'd be up to at least a qualified bee keeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdventureMoms Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I'm in the rather large seeming gap between queen and empress at the moment. Professor seems a LOOOONG way away! But I've only been here about a year, there's time still. :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpecialClassical Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Thank you. I'm posting this to see where I am. There should be some kind of formula that combines years reading TWTM with actual posting numbers! You know, for us shy people who have been around since the dancing microphone.

Erica in OR Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Thanks. I wondered how close I was to the next level. Within striking distance of queen, which sounds better to me than royal larvae. Erica in OR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShannonS Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 OK Hive. Weird Things That Bother Me #1 The math for this drives me a little bonkers. There is no apparent pattern to the post numbers required for a jump to the next level: 11 30 60 60 49 100 100 140 200 1750 1000 1500 2500 2500 The patterning of the tiles in some public bathrooms bother me in the same way. Bees are mathematical creatures, why not base it on factors of 120 or powers of six? Perhaps a combination of the two would be better? The Hexagon is one of nature's 'perfect figures,' and the honeycomb is a lovely model of mathematical efficiency. I would have loved to find a beautiful little pattern in the steps.

shanvan Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I didn't think I'd be able to do it, but it looks like I might make Empress before school starts. (Some of you might remember that was my summer goal.) I can't decide if that's a good thing or a bad indication of where I'm spending my time!

nukeswife Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I had no idea I reached that over 5000 post mark, I figured I was at about 3000 tops. I guess I'm talking a lot more than I thought. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nukeswife Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 for those posting to see your post count you can do that without posting, I know it's not as fun, but it can be done. If you click on your name at the very top right of the page, where it shows your signed it, you'll see your profile and in a small box on the right side it will show your post count. ETA: also posting to the same thread doesn't seem to up your post count either. My two posts on this thread show my post count at 5483.

I really want to, but I can't think what I want to be Empress of. :lol: I use the title Queen. I've been reading on Egyptian life and am considering adopting the title "Great Royal Wife". In lieu of that I simply use Overlord and have one minion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
