Hahaha, I had no idea I had the most posts in here. 2009 was a hell of a quiet year for me in the Close.

Great stats MM. :D

I'm with Av...
I had mostly avoided The Close this year.

neo, could I request one more stat, if you would?
Some of the topics this year were more of an informative type, rather than an interactive one. Is it possible to list threads by views, instead of posts? I think that may be a sign of popularity as well, in this forum, anyway...

I was surprised to see one of my topics on the list. Pretty good for mostly lurking around I think.

My eyes are flame.
My heart is ashes.
Look upon me and tremble.
