Indeed, great posting. Of course, as one of the principal evangelists of revitalizing the Watch, who would expect differently from u?

Congrats U. And one of the fastest posters huh? Not too shabby.
Now you have to pick it up so that Cord Hurn can get a spot there too.
Of course, he'll have to pick it up too...

Thanks guys!
The E'fest in 2014 provided much of the juice for the afterburners subsequently applied. I realised that at this stage KW is sustained by our presence and activity here more than anything else (unless they make a film or a series of some of the books), so, along with the rest of you, I make an effort to be present and active here as regularly as possible. I've no doubt doubt that Oktoberfest in ABQ this year will again provide high octane fuel for 2017!

You're actually doing pretty good...it's the averages that get you.

Your only clocking in at 2.49 posts/day, Cord. But if you can squeak out 750 posts in the next 100 days, you'll hit 3.0. Remember, the longer you're here, the harder it is to move that average!

Yeah, I built up a hell of an average in the first few years, so even at times when I coasted I was sorta covered.
(Also, we need 100 posts a day if we're gonna crack 2k this month...so post on.

Likely the same errors being widely reported...which are due to the special character problem.
