A new Murcer is born!

[Vlip]

I may be wrong but he must have gotten Ant to count his older post when we changed fories back one year or two ago.

Am I wrong Paulcs?

I think, it was a while ago (around the time we were hacked?), that a bug in UBB caused a bunch of people's posts to transfer to paulcs, therefore he has 10,000.

If that's the case, it's clear that UBB's countingskills are as good as the countingskills of a plank

We recently migrated from that sodding, heavy, Perl-based UBB (It ate more than 700MB's on our server's harddisk!) to a lightningfast, ultralight PHP-forum, taking the threads and memberfiles with us.
Allmost everybody was missing a post or 200, some more, some less, being the posts UBB miscalculated.
I went from 3300 to 2400...

Vlip,

You should be glad we switched to the tatoo & branding iron...

In my day, when mini's were MURCettes, there was a much more elaborate (and uncomfortable) procedure to make you a MURCer. I'm just now getting feeling back in my right foot and I still don't have full rotation of my torso back yet.

We used to make the Murcettes wear fishnets and high heals. They'd kick dance during the MURC Xmas show at Video City Music Hall.

I've been registered with the forums for a lot longer than the date given. An unfortunate server incident forced me to re-register.

I assimilated credit for a number of people's posts during another unfortunate server incident.

We won't tatoo or brand the name of any particular Matrox product on you. Remember, the MURC is unaffiliated with Matrox. We prefer a big M.

I couldn't find any pictures, but here's a synopsis of the file, "A Man Called Horse":

"MAN CALLED HORSE, A (National General Pictures, 70) Richard Harris, Dame Judith Anderson, Dub Taylor, Iron Eyes Cody. Captured by the Sioux Indians, an aristocratic British sportsman is subjected to mind-numbing degradation and torture before proving himself to be a man and finding acceptance within the tribe. Novelty of the film, which centered on brutal aspects of Indian culture, revolved around a prolonged, and convincingly conveyed, ritual in which the participant is required to hang from pegs piercing the chest. (Technicolor; Panavision; 114 minutes)"

I wasn't talking about his arm, Paul. Suffice it to say that MY branded tag only reads "G400" after a swim in a cold mountain lake... Get it now?

I am not a Horse!!!! I am a MURCer!!!!!!!

Damn, that's fun Paul (No, not you again, the other Paul). You just invented a new signature!

Cheers,

Jake

No wonder I didn't see this movie, I wasn't even born when it came out
But I promise to watch it as soon as one TV channel programs it down there in Switzerland (That may take quite a few years).

Hmmm, a big M is fine with me, but I wan't to be completely healed in 7 months, I can be slightly wounded during my studies, but when I'll have my recruits in front of me, I want to be completely functionnal!!!
