I'd need every single thread page and post saved and then identified according to member - and even if I could do this with the archives I have now, it would be a bit of a hassle to restart PPP every month just to count stats... ;) What about utilizing the "view recent posts" option in a member's profile? It shows a table of the forums of the last 50 posts. You could probably come up with some way of keeping track of which you've already counted. -------------------- 5.0.1.0.0.0.0.1.0...

The Spiderweb Instant Custom Title Generator? in General
wz. As Infiltrator Member # 3040	written Wednesday, February 15 2006 20:43 Profile #143 quote: Originally written by The Stew Boy: You know, I never realised we had so many members. Just by looking at the first page, I'm surprised. But you haven't done one for me yet... That's because even members who have several hundred posts sometimes don't make their personality known enough to have people recognize them. Or even more posts than that. Wise Man has more than three thousand posts, but the majority of them are one liners. If we don't count quotes, I'd say almost 100 percent of Wise Man's posts are 3 lines or less.

Will Exile ever be carbonized? in The Exile Trilogy
wz. As Infiltrator Member # 3040	written Saturday, February 11 2006 14:01 Profile #32 quote: Originally written by Spidweb: And if you are angry about this, I suggest blaming Apple. I didn't ask them to completely redo their OS architecture for the THIRD time since I started this business. Not exactly; it's only three if you blur things a little. 68k to PPC was both a system change and a hardware change; OS 9 to OS X was only a system change; and the latest switch of PPC to Intel is only a hardware change. So it's not really three changes whether "redo their OS architecture" refers to system change or to hardware change. Either way it's only two. To clarify: Major system changes: 7.x to 8.x/9.x, and 9.x to 10.x Hardware changes: 68k to PPC, PPC to Intel. -------------------- 5.0.1.0.0.0.0.1.0...

The nephilim language in The Avernum Trilogy
wz. As Infiltrator Member # 3040	written Wednesday, February 1 2006 21:41 Profile #158 Sorry to temporarily attempt to derail the discussion, but I stumbled upon this thread and am very interested by it. I am currently taking an intro to Linguistics course, where I am learning about things like Chomsky's notion of a Universal Grammar. What do people think of the idea that Sliths and Nephilim may not have the same Universal Grammar that humans do? For instance, what if they are not limited by binding theory for reflexive pronouns? Or if they can have movement out of coordinate structures? What if Sliths and/or Nephilim are much better than humans at keeping deep nests of modifiers in their head at one time, and are much worse at disambiguating double meanings? The impression I received is that both Kelandon's Slith grammar and Thralni's Nephil grammar are consistent with languages that could actually be spoken by humans natively. Am I correct in this impression? Or are there any properties of these languages that do not appear in any human language? If, in fact, Slith and/or Nephil language properties are different enough from those of human languages, it could have many implications for whether or not there could be native human speakers of the Slith tongue or vice versa, and might explain why, for instance, there are more Nephilim who speak passable Human than there are Sliths.

wz.

I Want to Crush Your Dreams. in Blades of Avernum
wz. As Infiltrator Member # 3040	written Sunday, January 15 2006 12:57 Profile #111 I'm pretty sure there is no dynamic lighting in BoA. In other words, lighting is calculated once and then left alone. Changing terrains and floors that give off light won't have any effect. You can still get your desired effect in this case. Just make the default terrain be the light-giving one, and switch it to the non-light-giving terrain in daytime. Then you'd see the light at night, and in the day you wouldn't notice the overlap of, say, a lamppost, and daylight. You'd just have to make sure to switch to the turned on lamppost as soon as it got dark out so that you wouldn't have a turned-off lamppost giving off light.

Exodus Progress in Blades of Avernum
wz. As Infiltrator Member # 3040	written Thursday, January 5 2006 18:20 Profile #27 quote: Originally written by Kelandon: The digraph "kh" represents a voiceless velar fricative ("ch" in properly pronounced "Chanukah" or in Scottish "loch"). "Gh" is the corresponding voiced sound. I may as well list the big ones: "Th": voiceless dental fricative ("thin" but NOT "this"), corresponding to voiced "dh" (but "dh" is rare). "Sh": voiceless post-alveolar fricative ("should"), corresponding to voiced "zh" (the "s" in "measure" — "zh" is also rare). "Rh": uvular trill, like some varieties of a French or German R, or so I'm told. It's guttural. What exactly is the difference (phonetically in general, not necessarily as it pertains to the Slith language) between your gh and your rh? Aren't they pretty much the same thing? -------------------- 5.0.1.0.0.0.0.1.0... Posts: 508 \| Registered: Thursday, May 29 2003 07:00
