Competition: When Will Steven Wagenheim Reach 10,000 Posts?

[Martin Luxton]

Steven Wagenheim has got

8,819 posts at the mom

sorry,

8,820

so I'm wondering

8,821

when he

8,822
8,823

will reach 10,000

8,824

and what he will do

8,825

as a WSO when he

8,826

gets to that amazing total.

Any plans, Steven?


Everybody can post their guess here with date and time.

I'll go first


October 5th, 07:56 EST

[MikeRogers]

Tomorrow?

Mike

[n\a]

spare us

[KarlWarren]

I've heard that Allen Says is going to sponsor Steve to stop posting
because of the load on the database caused by his contributions.

[Martin Luxton]

Karl,

That's because when Steven posts, people click. He's responsible for quite a large chunk of the time I spend here.

[Steven Wagenheim]

Hey, has anybody noticed that Kay, Seasoned Steve, Patricia and Willie
Crawford are all ahead of me and will certainly reach 10,000 posts long before
I do?

Now see what you've all done? You've put the wammy on me. My PC 'll break
down and I'll NEVER reach 10,000 posts.

Guess I have to put in an advanced call to my support tech.

[kenj]

Definitely November 14th at 9.15 a.m. UK time#

Only because its my mum's birthday

Which only shows that they have a life and I don't.

Post count means nothing folks. I'll take an informative post by Frank Kern
or John Reese over one of mine any day of the week, especially since I can't
learn anything from myself but I can learn from them.

[Ken Leatherman]

Hey Steven,

Stop talking and start posting. No wait I didn't mean that. Please Steven don't do it. No Steven wait wait wait. Then do it all in one day.

Not true, Steven.

I learn stuff from myself all the time:

"No, no, don't put 12 scoops of coffee into the pot"

Don't leave the credit card statement that I use for IM products out where the old lady can see it.

and... and.. Don't pee on the 'lectric curling iron that was left in the floor.

[Trent Brownrigg]

According to my calculations it should be around November 13th.

[Steven Wagenheim]

Okay, I just did some math (my wife would be proud) and according to my
current posting record (14.17 posts per day) I'll hit 10,000 around November
16.

I guess there should be a prize given to the person who comes the closest.

I know...they get to make my next 10,000 posts.

[asinGer]

I say on thanksgiving...and I am sure he will have a special holiday treat for us.

[Paul Myers]

November 23. Noon.

I just don't know how someone can write so much stuff.

Maybe he's an android.

Hey, if you win, I'm not letting you post for me. You'll make me look too
smart. That'll kill my reputation.

ROFL, etc

Nice riposte...

[Ricky Parker]

Steven,

I'm curious...

How many keyboards a month do you go through?

Here it is by mid-month

[Mac Wheeler]

Sometime between post number 9,999 and post number 10,001.

I win!

[Chris W. Sutton]

Well, if you want to know the truth, he nearly reached that milestone in the first week he was here. Does the word "prolific" ring a bell?

[Janet Sawyer]

What ARE you saying Chris!

Steven didn't want anyone to know he suffered from PDS (Post Diarrhoea Syndrome)

Actually, Steven, the more I watch you and your work, I wonder, how do you find the time, the inspiration and the drive to do what you do.

We would all love to know how you manage to seperate the family demands from the work demands. You seem to be able to have managed what we would all have liked to achieve at some point.

I'm sorry if this seems like a rambling post, but you have shown the tenacity to keep comming back, knock after knock, when the rest of us go! argh! take a break, come back later.

What is the secret? what strength do you draw on? what is your motivation?
If you don't want to post publicly that's fine, just send me a pm.
Like I have always said, it's nothing personal, it can't be on a public forum.
Just intersted that's all.

Kindest regards,

Janet Sawyer

[tommygadget]

November 20th, IMO. Now that Steven knows people are watching, it will affect his posting habits subliminally...

I do?

I don't know Steve - I think they all
started here a few years before you
did.

You're a freight train.

[Andyhenry]

It could happen at any time - only Steven knows when. But he still has more posts to get there than most members of the forum ever have.

[Zach Booker]

My b-day.
November 23rd at 3:04 a.m

[Steven Wagenheim]

Janet, I'm going to try to answer your questions as honestly as I can.

Actually, Steven, the more I watch you and your work, I wonder, how do you find the time, the inspiration and the drive to do what you do.

I enjoy what I do. I like people. I like talking to people. What many people
here don't know is I had a long history before I ever got into marketing
of frequenting the AOL chat rooms. I used to live there. So networking is
just something that comes naturally to me.

We would all love to know how you manage to seperate the family demands from the work demands. You seem to be able to have managed what we would all have liked to achieve at some point.

I am lucky in that respect. I don't have many family demands. My daughter
lives on campus and my wife works a full time job as a teacher so I am
home alone a lot. Another reason I like chatting with folks here. It keeps
me from going stir crazy.

What is the secret? what strength do you draw on? what is your motivation?

The secret is to enjoy what you do. Lots of people don't make money
online, not because they don't have the smarts, but because they really
hate the work so much they can't bring themselves to do it. I thought, at
one time, that I wanted to be a great chess player. But the discipline I
needed to really study and learn the game properly, I wasn't prepared to
commit to it. So as a result, I'm a fair chess player. So many people
think that if they want to make money online, all they have to do is learn
how. I don't believe that's enough. I believe you have to enjoy it or you'll
hate it so much, after a while, even if you're successful, you'll stop doing
it.

As for motivation, I don't need much. I look at my daughter's college
tuition and that's all the motivation I need. But you know what? If I didn't
need the money, I'd still do this. Why? Again, I really love it. I love the
challenge, the excitement, the creativity, the diversity and I love meeting
with and working with people. When I was QA manager at my last company,
it was a job I really loved because I got to supervise a whole department.
Unfortunately, the company moved to Pittsburgh and I was out of work.

Anyway, I've rambled on enough. I hope this kind of answers your questions.

[Andyhenry]

Steven - you already have 4 posts just in this thread... now that's what I'm talking about

[Tristan Bull]

The dudes a freak. He has only been on here for not even 2 years yet and he has nearly hit the 10k mark.

My bet is mid November, unlesss of course someone hits a hot topic and he can't stop rambling

[Bev Clement]

You mean he hasn't reached 10,000 already, Steven have you been slacking in the last week. With all the time you have saved with your new plan you could have posted 10,000 posts

[Steven Wagenheim]

Bev, I've been trying to keep a low profile lately.

Actually, considering I started off with an average posts per day of about 80,
averaging under 15 posts per day shows that I really have slowed down a lot
for some time, which is why I made more money last year than in any other
year prior.

Yeah, I actually did more work than BS around here.

[valerieSONORA]

I'd like to amend my bid to Dec. 1st. So, what's the prize?

[Willie Crawford]

I do?

I think you'll reach 10,000 first Steve... long before I do.
You're such a "machine" that it's not even a competition.

Willie

[AndrewCavanagh]

I say October 29 as long as his keyboard holds out.

Love the photo!

Kindest regards,
Andrew Cavanagh

[Bev Clement]

The prize is a JV with Danny Wall

[Tristan Bull]

1. My birthday is actually December 1....what are you'se gonna do for me, Annoyed Girl?

2. When my boy Steve hits his 10,000th post......I'm planning on "giving back" to him for all he's given to us.

I'm talkin' about a hooker who can massage feet, mix a martini, grille a perfect medium rare steak....and give Steve all the love he has comin' for years of good service on the Warrior Forum.

Now you did it. Everybody is going to retract their votes.

Maybe the winner should get to do a JV with me.

Vince, I love the gesture, but I think my wife would have a serious problem
with this.

[Bev Clement]

Steven think how I just took the pressure off you

8 more posts and you will have posted more than Willie

Don't worry about "the wife."

I've distracted more wives then the pool boy on Desperate House Wives.

I got it handled, Wagon.
