It was indeed I who was the first with a shiny square....past glories!

I remember being pleased as punch that I was on the first page (sorted by rep) when it was first activated. And who was the leader on that first day.... *drum roll*.....??

Wouldn't it be nice if all the energy that has gone into posts on this thread were invested in actual Tolkien discussions?! To say nothing of the sleuthing effort involved in figuring out the source of anonymous reps...
Burn

But I will try and be realevant to this thread: Is there a place (whether in the FAQ or earlier in this thread) that states what the rep levels correspond too as far as points? (Bilbo would share a smoke with you-10 rep points) or something like that? I cant find one anywhere, not thats it crucial, but just wondering.

There are several posts that give information on point count and rep levels early in this thread. If you go back and skim the first few pages (before it turned into a rep chat), you should find it.

Raynor has just left Hobbiton.
Today I have many reasons to celebrate; I just came home from a party with the workmates and I also received a very interesting job proposal; but I knew it was a great day when I saw I passed the 1000 mark in under 100 posts/60days (repdrunk could hardly describe my feelings ). I would like to warmly thank all the members who appreciated my posts. As I have confessed in private, I consider the level of Tolkien discussions in this site to be one of the highest around, and the people are just great. Really glad to be here.

I must say I'm a bit repdrunk too - I was only a day or two away from the 'downs and I've got four new reps and ~200 new rep points and all from different threads! Thank you all!

EDIT: I've passed BW and pio on the members by reputation list! maybe I have to rep them only for that. Or just for being great...

Oh, he was the first BDer to get two green boxes, wasn't he? I remember being all awestruck then, with the rest of us having only one. Then several months later...
