X-13 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I can't +rep you Mac... I need to +rep more people first. Rawns, you got some rep for great justice. 2

sparkeh Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) *Tenuous link alert* *Tenuous link alert* So the talk about repping reminded me of rapping and an excuse to post this. Edited October 7, 2013 by sparkeh 2
Rawns Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I can't +rep you Mac... I need to +rep more people first. Rawns, you got some rep for great justice. Ta muchly! It went up by 20. Not quite 500! 1
X-13 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) Ta muchly! It went up by 20. Not quite 500! Huh... dunno what it means then. @sparkeh gets some tenuous rep for his tenuous rap. Edited October 7, 2013 by X-13
VeryPC Posted October 7, 2013 Author Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) Ta muchly! It went up by 20. Not quite 500! Rep POWER is the rep you can award and is a small portion of your actual reputation (also related to a few other things like time on site, number of posts etc). e.g. X-13 has a rep power of 501, but judging by his stars and bars, he has a reputation score of nearly 15,000 points (brown stars are 3,000) Your rep is heading towards 12,000 at the moment btw EDIT - @X-13 and I were involved in a quite detailed discussion of the significance of the rep icons a while back, I'll see if I can find his calculations.

sparkeh Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 @sparkeh gets some tenuous rep for his tenuous rap. *Oof* Being hit with that rep power is like being hit by a bear. Thanks though!
VeryPC Posted October 7, 2013 Author Posted October 7, 2013 This is the thread all about the rep stars and bars: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/general-chat/111886-oh-edugeek-blush.html and here is a link to @X-13 detailed score breakdown post: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/general-chat/111886-oh-edugeek-blush-4.html#post958015 Some good work there.

X-13 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 *Oof* Being hit with that rep power is like being hit by a bear. Thanks though! "No one man should have all that power The clocks tickin' I just count the hours" That's all I know... and I only know it because of SR3.
MHUK Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Thanks @VeryPC The baker joke was prize enough Very acceptable wall destruction - get well soon Collin. 2
hallb15 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Glad you liked the joke. Maybe the next mini competition could be jokes that are funny enough to make Colin_M laugh in his current state of pain! What do you think @VeryPC Al?

Maybe the next mini competition could be jokes that are funny enough to make Colin_M laugh in his current state of pain! What do you think @VeryPC Al? Not a bad idea! We'll let @VeryPC_Colin_M choose the winner from his recuperation bed. But before that... Let's get a few more Morgan Freeman voice impersonations in first though and then we'll have a vote for the best impersonation the winner of which will win a big box full of sweeties. Let's say the cut off on the Morgan freeman mini-competition is midnight on Wednesday 9th October 2013 and we'll run the vote on Thursday and Friday this week (last vote 4pm Friday 11th October 2013). I know I don't need to reiterate this really, but let's make sure we keep the impersonations tasteful EduGeekers! Cheers, Al Edited October 7, 2013 by VeryPC
X-13 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 the winner of which will win a big box full of sweeties. ~slow-mo~ NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....
mac_shinobi Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) the winner of which will win a big box full of sweeties. Al Good luck to { any / every } - one else who has or will shortly do the Morgan Freeman impersonation !! edit - does that mean anyone who has already done an impersonation can re - try ?

mac_shinobi Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Not related but hovered over my own bars / etc and saw this http://imgbin.me/image/IXDMKWQZ.jpg
hardtailstar Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Sorry @VeryPC ive been round Morgan Freeman's house and practising his voice, but yes add me to that thread.... another day before I get my submission in....
Little-Miss Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 As there is no chance in hell of me doing a Morgan Freeman impression, did you say we could send things in? Like pictures etc?
X-13 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 As there is no chance in hell of me doing a Morgan Freeman impression, did you say we could send things in? Like pictures etc? Same rules as last year. Post random pictures in the thread. If they end up on the wall... BONUS ENTRY!

CESIL Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I wait all weekend excited at the prospect of a prize at long last (I don't win many things) and then all I win is a pack of obsolete RAM! I think I feel an art project coming on...maybe some sort of mobile using RAM modules...might keep some kids quiet for a while Despite the disappointment over the prize I shall at least bask in the glory of winning for once... Thanks Al and all at VeryPC
sparkeh Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 As there is no chance in hell of me doing a Morgan Freeman impression, did you say we could send things in? Like pictures etc? @Little-Miss To save you the trouble of rereading all of our nonsense, here are the pics that have earned extra entries: 1) My discovery of Al's previous career: Click for Al Hoskins. 2) @hallb15 created an Alwok: Click for Alwok. 3) @sonofsanta showed us his Wooly Willy: Click for Wooly Willy. 4) @X-13 made something which still haunts my dreams: Click for arrrrghhhghhhh noooooo. 1
Little-Miss Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) 1) OMG! 2) I want to hug it.. 3) Not what i was expecting 4) No words... My idea is going to take me a little longer, and i'll have to post it. Hope i can get it done now! Edited October 7, 2013 by Little-Miss
sonofsanta Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 3) Not what i was expecting I can always private message you later - might be just what you need to make you laugh right now (that's the normal reaction anyway)
mac_shinobi Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) My GIMP Skills are pants - I was trying to make an Al-Bacca ( Chewbacca ) but failing miserably !! Edited October 8, 2013 by mac_shinobi
