I counted 16 points in there. Don't give these away.

How many points did you give her for being a lurker? Was that a fact?

How many points did you give katysails for the lie she told about giving me
her points? Has your memory failed you? Katy never gave me any points!
Check it out in her own words:
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...c?dmode=source

And I quote Katysails:

Of that was only because I thought Bart had some nefarious scheme going
on...I was going to donate my points only because I thought his intentions
were dishonorable...I have since realized that Bart is an honorable
person... I renege.....

But don't take my word for it, click on the link and find out who's telling
the truth.

Hi,
My name is katy and I'm a lurker.
I have a Kirie Elite 32 built in LaRochelle France, marconi rigged sloop
with an 18hp Volvo Penta diesel engine and sail the Sea of Michigan.
I also have a Butterfly named Katydid that is in the barn waiting to have
her hull sanded from the repair I made when some nefarious creature stove
her in...I also have a rowing dinghy named Chanty (big boat's named
Chanteuse) that is quite tippy but carts Mr Sails, me, Chooper the
gigantic poodle and all our stuff back and forth every weekend between
May 1 through October 15.
I am only posting this because I need to acquire more points since I
foolishly gave mine away to LP thinking she had a brain in her head, but
since she's decided to consort with pedophilic sailors, I think those
points should be annulled.

1 point award per fact you provide.

BTW, Scott was the only one on the newsgroup that gave me his points.

Old age getting to you, Bart?

I can't believe you give points for chronics such as Katysailsfrenchcrap and Ole Thom.

Since both apparently are too daft to understand what 'lurker' means they should get
points taken away.

Annual LURKER Check-In !!!

For those of you lurking out there. This is the
annual Lurker Check-in.

Lurkers are those that read posts but do not post
responses or start threads.

You don't have to post anything intelligent, just
your handle and location, include boat name,
type and model, if you have one.

This is your big chance to get easy points.

If you don't check in, nothing bad will happen to you,
you will just remain POINTLESS!

1 point award per fact you provide.

Those of you that have posted and do not have any
points at all, or you are not sure if you have any points,
you can check in now for free alt.sailing.asa newgroups
points.

Sailors tend not be be lame people. However, the lack of
a "lurker check-in" turn-out is disappointing. I can only draw
the conclusion that such people are lame for not checking
in, and therefor not sailors because they are lame.

If a few regulars check-in then at least it keeps the thread
alive for another few days. And who knows where it will go.

As far as points go. The one point'ers you have earned
have more value than gratuitous points given in this thread.

He never stated where the lurker had to lurk...I lurk a lot....just because
it's not here does not exclude me from lurkdom...

Ok Bart
I want some points although I'm not sure what I will do with them.
I use my real name and I am located in Roswell Georgia. I have a 1982
Catalina 27 (Tire Swing. I have had this boat since new but it is up
for sale. I should get additional points here because the sail number
matches the last four digits of my phone number. I also have a O'day
40 (Savannah Daydreamin) that we use to cruise the Bahamas. Due to a
family member medical problems we didn't go this year so I decided to
become a "lurker".
How many points do I get?

What is your first name JR? Or is that what you like to
be called?

Your response is good for 10 points! You are now a
blooded veteran.

More importantly, you are not POINTLESS! Everyone
should have a few points.

Thanks for participating.

When I was in the Air Force I had to evaluate my troops
on their performance reports. I thought that was pointless.
The lesson I learned was ratings don't matter, finding ways
to motivate people is what is important.

I started posing questions in here years ago. At some point,
I believe when I felt we were needed to get back to discussing
sailing, I started posing questions as a method of starting
sailing discussions. This is a tough crowd. I've had to put
some effort into coming up with good questions. Lately
I've been posing USCG questions which helped eliminate
arguments about the answers.

Other people have since posed questions and awarded points.
It is a fine tradition which I hope will continue long after I'm gone.

Since then it has taken on a life it's own. Once someone
complained about not having any points. My feeling is
everyone should be able to earn some. Why not?

The earliest recorded point awarded I found was 1 Feb 2002.
Can you find an earlier one? [1 pt]
