Hi all, time for another round!
1)<u>Who has the most Posts</u>
I once again checked were I am on the membership list, and I think I am doing good for the amount of posting I do. I am number 17. There is no way that I will ever get into the top 10 at my progress. Now the top ten people are in the thousands of post. If you took the top 50 posters, and combined them together, you would have the majority of all the posts here.
2)<u>Having a lot of Posts</u>
Having a lot of posts doesn't nessesarily mean that you are a veteran here anymore it seems. It seems that every month or so that we sort of get a hand full of people who really want to post, then we loose a few. Then there are those who rarely over post.
3)<u>My post total, OVER 700!</u>
I am now over 700 posts. Hopefully by the end of the summer, I can add another 100 posts.
4)<u>PA! first year, congradulations. </u>
It has finally been a year since PA! has opened it's doors. It feels like 3 years! We have been through at least 3 moves and face lifts, Spammers, highs, lows, dozens if not hundreds of mods, and disapointments on games. Now when we aproach the last quarter of the year, we will be seeing a new batch of pirate games, that will bring PA! into a new rush of activity when the are released. Me, I am not much into playing these games, due to they are only half historically accurate. The only game I would loke forward to would be Pirates of the Burning Sea, but that is only accessable by fast internet hookup, which I don't got. But I do look forward to all the research that will come out of it.
How long will PA! last? I think it will last as long as PC games are popular, and if they keep on making Pirate games. PC games are different from Video games because, with PC, you can tap into the games and change it to your liking, which adds a reason why people play PC games.
Here is to PA! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

5)<u>The Patrick O'Brian Series</u>
I have just started reading the series, and I am already 2 books in. Just by reading these 2 books, I got a feeling that there won't be another book for this series. Also, I did not realize that there was 20 BOOKS! Horation Hornblower was only 11 books.
6)<u>Pirates of the Caribbean, 1 Year Aniversary</u>
It has been 1 year since Pirates of the Caribbean has come out. It has been the most successful pirate movie for decades. It was this movie that this forum started on. Hopefully their sequals bring in more people to this part of history.
7)<u>What is in store for Captain Python's Table?</u>
Well, if I still get replies to my topics, then it will stay. For me, I will continue to do research. Being on this forum has changed me. I went from a no nothing game addict with a steriotypical view of Pirates, to a Pirate Age historian that sees the wrong ways of most of the games we play, who has half retired playing these games. I will still be with you all for I hope years to come, or until the end.
