wow..has CC become the new facebook?

<p>Agree-- Leave your SN so we can thank you properly.</p>

<p>This is the most fun I’ve had all week! Thanks everyone!</p>

<p>Jym, as master of the known universe, you are splendid to behold. :p</p>

<p>I cannot recall if I’ve ever written splendid in a sentence before now. That, alone, makes the game worth it. </p>

<p>I will add to your brilliance manana.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>are you saying that different people give different amount of rep points when they click the button once? based on some formula?</p>

<p>Thank you poetgrl! Your post is, of course, splendid!</p>

<p>Yes, soccerguy-
I will rep you and hopefully you will go to 2 green boxes. As a senior statesman around here, you are worth a lot too. Please share the love!!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Yes, soccerguy, there is a formula based on how long you have been a member and your # of posts. LoremIpsum has done a lot of the math on the “prestigiousity” thread in the parents forum. When I was a one little green square girl, back in the day, I wrote you a letter about this. :D</p>

<p>You could also pm LoremIpsum to get the math.</p>

<p>You go away on vacation and miss all the fun at home. I’ll bribe with cookies… I make really good ones!</p>

<p>Thanks for the points, folks! I tried to push soccerguy315 over the top to 2 squares, but missed the mark. Anyone available to top it off? </p>

<p>Onward, I’ll get to you once I reload – CC could use some good web browser cookies, it’s been having trouble keeping me logged in!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Here’s a rough estimate:</p>

<ul>
<li>A newbie with under 500 posts - 1 point</li>
<li>3-4 yr account + 3000 posts - about 15 points</li>
<li>7 year account + 7000 posts - about 30 points</li>
<li>8 year account (max) + 15000 posts - about 45 points</li>
</ul>

<p>It appears that in the 10,000+ post range, each additional 2000 posts is worth an extra point.</p>

<p>I just gave Soccerguy a reputation, and I think it pushed him over! So cool to think that I might have made a difference to someone, LOL.</p>

<p>Just checking in to see how everyone is doing! I have more rep to give, and this is my favorite thread to do it.</p>

<p>I signed my name this time - hit up mstee, onward, jym, EPTR and soccerguy, oldfort and confetti, VeryHappy, churchmusicmom, SimpleRules</p>

<p>(Sorry Lorem, GA2012 and poetgrl, have to spread the love around)</p>

<p>Thanks Moreover! I’ll be back to you tomorrow!</p>

<p>I can’t spread it to you again mamabear. I think you have to wait 2 or 3 days. You welcome to try me if you like. I didn’t get any rep on Sunday, although I did spread it around!</p>

<p>Pure junk! Popularity contest. I’ll continue to value posters for the information and comments I like. childish comments for each green box- meaningless. If anyone likes my comments and says so in a post after mine it means a lot more than getting points for unknown reasons. Some posters are great in some areas. Some of us try in our alma mater’s site where people don’t play the game and most on CC in general have no reason to visit. Those of you who post on the same sites can boost each other’s egos. I’ll remain the unliked outsider. Never did go for the gimmicks in HS or beyond and won’t start now.</p>

<p>Wis75, I don’t consider you to be an unliked outsider, at all. I actually always stop to read your posts when I see one and I always find them interesting and well considered, and if I had any reps left for the day, I would certainly rep you. But, tomorrow, you are on my radar. :)</p>

<p>That said, I know exactly how you feel. I think most of us feel that way and have just decided to turn it into a fun game.</p>

<p>^I agree. This new green squares addition to CC is ridiculous. IMO–it takes away from the purpose of CC and has turned it into a strange contest with the goal to accumulate squares based on popularity.</p>

<p>I don’t know about all of you, but all this whore mongering is getting to me. I’m not sure who I have done, did, or tryin to do. I try to keep a record of those I did, but when you get to double didgets, well thats above my pay grade. Thanks to all who did me. :)</p>

<p>p.s., do me again :)</p>

<p>nysmile, wis, etc
No one is taking this seriously. We are just having a little fun, and its been nice to connect with more cc’ers than I had already gotten to “know” in this wonderful community. For that reason alone, plus the entertainment value its provided this week, its been fun. Silly, but fun.</p>

<p>Thanks for the love mamabear and LoremIpsum. I am almost at 1000, but not quite. With a little more lovin’ I’ll be there. Wis, your seniority should do it. Can you help an old cronie out?? Anyone??</p>

<p>It STILL won’t let me touch you Jym! Sorry! I’ll keep trying.</p>

<p>Wis, the reason the game is funny is because we ALL agree with you! We are mocking it!</p>

<p>GAmom,
Lol!!! Well said!!!</p>

<p>Why, I wake up to having an aura? Wonder if people in the grocery store will notice? :)</p>

<p>Thanks! Gotta go spread some little green love…</p>

<p>Why, oh why, have these funny little boxes gotten my attention suddenly? meaningless, trivial, and yet somehow I feel the need to get to the ‘nice’ level to match my sn. I’m out looking for people to share bumps with this morning…</p>
