Uhm, first that won't work as a test. I have no idea how those banning
lists work, but you can be sure that only some newsservers will use
them, so veen seeing your own post will prove nothing.

Second, if you really need to test that you can post to afda, why not
find some interesting topic and post something to it, rather than make
an annoying post just saying "test"?

Third, you failed the test. You only get 30 out of a hundred, and you
need at least 50 to pass. Sorry.

Fourth, the third point was included only because three is a much nicer
number than two, and because the post needed some non-serious content.
Of course, this point more or less ruins the first half of this point,
but at least it enforces the second half.

Fifth, there is no way I can keep this going until forty-second, so I'll
just stop here.

Sixth, or here.

Should we see how far we can get on commenting on Chris' test? We could

Fifteenth: Welcome! Tea?

Sixteenth: We should have skipped thirteenth. I'm superstitious.

Seventeenth: If we had, would forty-two have counted? Could be lucky that
we didn't, then.

Eighteenth: Currently, Kaare holds the record for most points in one post in

We don't particularly want to maintain a large member base (it may now be
noted that this is not necessarily the opinion of the froup, but from what I
can gather they're mostly of the opinion that it doesn't really matter.
Somebody slap me with a nice bit of trout if I'm wrong) - before the movie
and Phase3, this is what the froup was like all the time. It's a welcome
return to form for some of us (like me, for instance).

Besides, we're trying for forty-two points! That's gotta be worth fighting
for. :-)

Those sideshows are what I'm here for, it's what I miss from how the
froup used to be, and there being less of it is partly why I'm not
posting so much here anymore.

Serious discussions should just be a tiny fraction of this froup, at
most, IMO. Besides, I believe more in quality than quantity, and to me -
the humour in this froup is what's quality.

Well - enough seriousness for now...

You think you can just swan back into afda after many moons have
passed, with a merely two-word post, even if one of those words has
about a gagillion syllables?

Hey, there, my friend. Welcome back.

I was just browsing in the bookstore, and I found out
that the Hitch Hikers Guide that I knew has a new 92 page
writeup about them movie bound in after it. There is also
a spiffy new cover that looks like one of the movie posters.
Seems like that is a good place to go for news about the movie...

Many? If only - I'm terribly shy and dating only happens very rarely for
me.

I implode would if I tried to understand what they said at times -
especially to their friends. Well - fortunately, my boyfriend is nice
enough to keep that kind of talk on the lowest possible level when
talking to me...
