March 25, 2002: 'I solemnly covenant that at least 90% of my writeups shall be factual writeups'
- Factual writeups: 146
- Twaddle writeups: 21
- Day & dreamlogs: 14
- Total: 181
Thus, my twaddle makes up for 12.6% of my writeups, not counting the dreamlogs (11.6% of my total count). If I limit myself to only factuals from now on, I will be able to write twaddle (do I even want to? I think not) when I reach a total of 224 writeups (because of the day/dreamlogs). These statistics were last updated August 6, 2002.
Stop the presses!
I have a secret admirer! After I wrote the wrtiteup at An Important Message I received, I noticed that someone had softlinked delenda est Carthago. And now I just saw the same softlink on my September 17, 2001 daylog, isn't that cool? I wonder who it is!
Highest XP writeup I have had nuked without requesting it: 2 (it didn't really add anything)
Lowest XP writeup I have had nuked without requesting it: -4 (it sucked)
Highest XP writeup I have requested nuked: 12 (it became superseded)
Lowest XP writeup I have requested nuked: -6 (crappy daylog)
The wonders of New Writeups:
What would you be doing if the internet didn't exist? followed by up all night on DXM.
Nice things people have /msg'd me...

"Indeed :) Many old noders could learn from you"
"EXCELLENT writeup on Ota Dokan. Loved the quote."
"great wu on Crumb. i wish i had more votes to give to it."
"Just thought I'd let you know how much I enjoyed reading your Blackbeard w/u...A lot! That's how much!"
"nice w/u on Blackbeard!"
"yr ASCII art for ASL is fabulous!"
A kind /msg is better than upvotes and cools any day... You know who you are... Thank you!
Also, kind words beat upvotes and c!s every day.
