History of the Torp War: The first 50 pages

[ntsheep]

      Greeting from the Kingdom of Derail. I am the scribe ntsheep. This is the first 50 pages of the “History of the Torp War”. There was a total of 38 Captains in the first part of the war and they are listed in order they joined. Notable things they did along with their torp\post count are included. I will be adding more to this, but it will take time. I spent over 10 hours just getting this much ready. This will be a guide for those that want to quickly navigate the Torp Thread to find out further information.

"He's german, 'nuff said" ... How the Hell should I interpret that,
hm?

And I actually thought I had a bit more than 11. Hmm... What's the record for the most self-torps?

[beuns]

Thanks dear scribe.

This history of the torp war allows everyone who has joined the war later to understand why there's cat nuclear torp or why you can torp by merely posting.


As I said in another (derailed ) thread, you're very knowledgeable

Remember, I'm German also We're known for being fun loving wackos. I'll add more here as I dig deeper into the thread. I do plan on doing rivalries between Captains.

Thanks for the info slayernz. Did you read threw it all or can you get info because of being a moderator?

[slayernz]

I used the search function in the thread, allowing me to search for posts created by specific people.
I then looked at the total number of whole pages worth of posts created and multiplied by 15. Finally, I added the number of posts in the last page

I'm suure there would be an easier way again - but I don't know of it

[slayernz]

ntsheep
Your list is so much more thorough - as you actually read the individual posts and noted down stats on each person as you came across the name.

Your eyes tend to go cross-eyed after a while though - I'm impressed you got to page 50!

[ntsheep]

Thanks, I'll try that out. Sometimes I really have trouble with the search function on this forum. It tends to confuse me more than help me.

[slayernz]

That's cos unlike you, I am used to working with Catalogs ..

[AA]

230 huh? I thought it would be higher... so where are the other 250+?

We sheep tend to stay away from any things or words that sound like "cattle prod" because those are sometimes used on us. Catalog is one that makes us nervous.

Of course, the info won't be accurate, unless you know all the old account names. I WAS cig. Dayan of course has come back as Dayan, but he had an old account, with torp records.

[Cg]

AA. I've already been at Templar level on the forum before. I ditched my old acount and created this one.
So by now, I should have at least 1600 posts recorded....

AND YOU STILL HAVE MORE TORPS LOGGED AS LAUNCHED, THAN MY NEWEST ACCOUNT. LOL! definately an obsessive torper.

[slayernz]

Cg, yeah, I tried doing a count with @cig too, but unfortunately the account was removed and so isn't searchable ... darnit

Why ... whyyyyyyy did you remove your account
