Hmm... Poster #209...

I'm not validating anything for certain, but it seems a little interesting to develop a hurmoristic thread regarding this.

For a start off, it's #209. Being OSC, you'd expect a 1-10 number of a member. To think that OSC is later than Tom Davidson is a little weird.

More so, the unusual sense of humour not found in the books ("Jetlag") is more than enough to change the known character.

I can't think of more right now, anyone cares to join and try to unvalidate OSC's identity?

This is a humour thread, #209! Please do not get angry or contact yourself in order to kick me out, OK? Thanks in advance - if request accepted.

Well, you would, if you didn't know how they initially created all the members on this site. [Smile]

Alphabetically ordered transfer of usernams from the old forum to the new one (there were many forums before this one, by my count, there were 6 "ones" before this [Wink]

).

And Tom took out the Holy Book and spake to the crowds.

In the begining there was AOHell and God saw that it sucked. But it was all he could get at the moment. And at the AOHell, God created Hatrack River. And a bunch of fanboys signed up. And then Card signed up.

Or something like that. [Smile]

Still, Tom is after Orson, and Davidson is after Card.

Moreover, look at the join-dates!

Do not question who is running the conspiracy, er, um boards.

They do not like to be questioned.

OSC needs a member title like "Da Man" or something, just so he's set apart from the rest of us mere mortals.

How 'bout "Benevolent Dictator"?

No, no, "Beloved Dictator". Yeah.

No, wait, after reading the other side, it must be "The Dude". [Big Grin]

Here's a ponderance:

I was a registered member of The Olde Forum, but delayed coming here for a few months because I didn't want to have to get used to a new setup and thought I could overcome my hatcrack addiction anyway.

I wonder if my old name got transferred and I never even knew it!

I believe there was indeed a Morgan Majors transferred. [Smile]

And they were not transferred in strict alphabetical order, but rather in -- I believe -- four batches. OSC was in the third batch, and I was in the second. I have no idea how the batches were derived. *grin*

It's not my fault I'm slow, I was just born that way. Do they have a pill for that yet? Or like stupid-o-suction?

I don't believe scientists have found a cure for that. I'm sure many doctors would tell you the best cure is to start thinking, but that isn't a pill now is it? [Razz]

lol, this thread reminds me of something one of my old professors used to say when reminding us to bubble our SSN on our scantron tests.

"Remember, at the University of Florida, you're not a name, you're a number."

Okay. So I remember that when I first start lurking, you could still read one of the older forums -- the one that had threaded conversations and featured many posts by D. Michael and John Keats and Darlene and others. Anybody remember when that was?

I know I lurked as far back as late 1999, but it may have been even farther back than that.

I don't have an opinion about OSC and his member number but I do think that Annie is very cool for using the word antediluvian. It's one of my favorite words. [Smile]

It just seemed such an obvious answer to the question--and I had to be the first to say it. [Wink]

<---has met neither Kristine nor Scott

<---is jealous

See? I'm green with envy.

What I want to know is why he is registered in 1999 and not "A long time ago!" That just doesn't make sense to me.
