IRF Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 Actually, my last post has brought J.G.Harston out of the woodwork! So now it's on 6999... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsetdanny Posted December 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 (edited) 'I'm afraid' (not that it's something to be afraid of :) ) that message No. 6999 has already been posted over there. So unless Andrew acts soon, he may be robbed of the honour :o .EDIT: I've posted without seeing your latest comment, Ian.So yes, it's just one to go now. Let's see who makes the move. Mine will be the announcement of the Quiz, but that will not come before Friday. .. Edited December 28, 2016 by jetsetdanny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewbroad Posted December 30, 2016 Report Share Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) I have just posted Message 7000 to the Manic Miner & Jet Set Willy Yahoo! Group. Thanks for leaving the honour to me. :) Edited December 30, 2016 by andrewbroad jetsetdanny, Spider and IRF 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRF Posted December 30, 2016 Report Share Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) No problem! Incidentally, I ended up deleting the odd few messages in the run-up, on occasions where I'd posted in haste and made an error, then gone back and corrected it (since there's no 'Edit' function). That wasn't a deliberate tactic to reach the milestone, but it might have helped us get there a bit quicker. Then again, I dare say it would have happened a fair few times over the years, before I bust onto the scene!

IRF Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 I hope to add one post there before the New Year, the announcement of the release of "Willy Games: The First 30 Years Quiz". It could actually be nice if message #7000 was posted on 1 January 2017 - with the digit 7 playing a magic role :blink: . Your announcement of the 30 Year Quiz on Yahoo is message number 7007 - the digit '7' thus playing a double role, on the day before 2017 commences!

jetsetdanny Posted December 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 Yes, it's a nice number, although it would be more fitting for Andrew announcing a new version of his "JSW64 Manic Miner: James Bond" - which, unfortunately, won't be happening any time soon, as I understand... :huh: IRF and Spider 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsetdanny Posted April 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 (edited) We have just gone over 6000 posts on this forum :D . This fact bears testimony to the healthy and active condition of JetSet Willy & Manic Miner Community :) . AFAICT, post # 6000 was Ian's post #56 in a thread in the Contributor Lounge concerning a certain new project. Please correct me if I'm wrong. In any case, this 4th April 2017 is the day when the milestone was reached. Well done, guys! :) Edited April 4, 2017 by jetsetdanny Spider and IRF 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsetdanny Posted September 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 I believe - based on information by Ian in a PM - that Andy published post #7000 on 15th September 2017. Please correct me if I'm wrong :) . If I'm right, congratulations on passing another milestone, Andy! :D Spider and IRF 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRF Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Catching up with the Yahoo group... jetsetdanny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRF Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 The number of posts on this forum overtook those on the Yahoo group yesterday, I believe. Let's hope that a bit of healthy competition sparks a revival in the latter... Spider and jetsetdanny 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
