Christ alive I spend a lot of time on here

Don’t regret a minute of it

[fearlessfrog]

Hope people don’t mind me setting this up. Had no idea of what the results would be until ol @Discobot ran the numbers.

Still early here on the left coast, but Happy New Year to all Mudspike members, and best of luck for 2022.

[Discobot]

Hi! To find out what I can do, say @discobot display help.

[Victork2]

@fearlessfrog

Hope people don’t mind me setting this up.

Heck no, its really interesting to see. I got an email from “system” and thought the website was down and panicked. So this turned out a nice surprise

Happy new year all

[Aginor]

Interesting numbers!

[chipwich]

@Victork2

Thankfully your posts are entertaining.

[BeachAV8R]

@fearlessfrog

Hope people don’t mind me setting this up.

This is epic. I love data like this…and it is really some interesting insights…! Thank you for running the program that generated this. Happy New Year!!!

Or maybe a Mudspike 365 badge. Similar to

[fearlessfrog]

I think we should do some special 2021 badges to celebrate the top results. I’ll ping @BeachAV8R, @Troll and @Fridge and we’ll come up with something.

@chipwich getting the ‘Top User’ just needs a fitting title and some bling, for example.

[Troll]

@fearlessfrog

fitting title

Mudslinger?
Sorry, @chipwich! Nothing personal. I am the Troll, after all…

[schurem]

@fearlessfrog

“10”.

It’s the mudspike that gets most respect when it shows up on my RWR.

[Derbysieger]

Depends on your aircraft of choice though. For a Huey pilot, a Russian soldier with his laser AK is probably more dangerous
