swellmomma Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 My guess is 50. That had been my guess too, but I want to test it out to know for sure. I mean if there is an elusive gold star to achieve I want to know how far to reach kwim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwoman Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 I got a "popular" once, too, but I didn't pay attention to how many likes were involved. Ah... the memories of being popular, even for a day... :001_wub: OTOH, I haven't been "popular" since then, so maybe I should be :crying: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to be sure, so the results must be duplicated. It's not because I want a gold star or have a need to be popular. I just want to make sure that we know with absolute certainty what it takes. That's all. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You put all your wisdom, blood, sweat, and tears into creating a masterpiece of a post, and then all you get is a little gold star and the word "popular"? I'm sorry, Cat. You deserved more. :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowing Brook Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 I got a "popular" once, too, but I didn't pay attention to how many likes were involved. Ah... the memories of being popular, even for a day... :001_wub: OTOH, I haven't been "popular" since then, so maybe I should be :crying: I liked you and am now encouraging everyone to like the post I quoted too so you can become popular again. I just can't stand to see anyone cry. So please everyone help catwoman become popular again today. Plus it will help the experiment to be duplicated. In the end everyone will be happy.

tex-bex Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Ooh, I would probably be a little too excited about a gold star. I so rarely get feedback, and nothing so life-affirming as a gold star!!!!! :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandelion Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 So Swellmomma, I noticed that you haven't been back to this thread since you got your gold star. Are you too good for us little people now?
