I HAVE THE POWER!!! (in terms of forum milestones)

By the way, I must be at least second in terms of fastest Slann ascension, right? (Obviously @NIGHTBRINGER I’m sure is first with his posting-rate)

 

If we're talking fastest ascension from new member to Slann, then it is definitely not me. If we include Slann to higher Slann ascensions then I hold that title several times over.

In terms of strictly new member to Slann ascension, @Lord-Marcus was really fast (don't let his current level of forum activity fool you, at one point he was averaging the second highest day-to-day post rate). That said, @Aginor 's ascension was even faster than @Lord-Marcus .

@Aginor joined the forum on Feb 16, 2017.
He ascended to Slannhood (as far as I can tell) April 3, 2018. That's the date when @Lord-Marcus congratulated him.

So it took him 411 days.


@Lizards of Renown joined the forum on Dec 13, 2019 and ascended on Feb 27, 2021. Which equates to 442 days.


@Bowser and @Lord-Marcus were both really fast, but I don't know their actual ascension dates so I can't compare them to you.



The very fastest ascension was my Quintuple to Sextuple ascension which took only 129 days . Followed closely by my other "recent" ascensions which took 161 days (Septuple to Octuple), 213 days (Sextuple to Septuple) and 235 days (Quadruple to Quintuple)

 

One thing's for sure, I probably have the lowest current new member to Slann ascension speed...

I enjoy being on this forum and do my best to provide great quality stuff, but I have a life in the real world to lead too, plus making and painting my models, a novel in the works and a lot of unofficial Warhammer army projects, all of which take up a lot of my time.

 

You add to the quality of the forum. No complaints here!

 

My current level of forum activity is predicated upon my business's level of activity at the moment. We're super busy....

 

I doubt that. There are a few of us that were members waaaay back in the day. I would imagine that @n810 , @Scalenex and I all took significantly longer to make our first 5000 posts.

For instance, I was a member way back in 2010 (long before we had the fancy version of the forum that we enjoy today). I probably had a couple of hundred posts and then I transitioned over to the Chamber of the Everchosen forum for literally years before returning back to Lustria. As a result we have:

the day I joined the forum: Nov 11, 2010
my first slann ascension: Aug 2, 2016

That works out to a whopping 2098 days!


If I had to venture a guess (without doing the calculations) as to which of our current Slann took the longest to reach their first 5000 posts, I would say it was @Scalenex . He joined the forum just a little bit after @n810 and myself, but didn't reach the 5000 mark until much later.

 

I just noticed that I surpast @Arli on the most message list. Nr. 17

Grrr, Imrahil

 

Congrats.


You're starting to appear as the frontrunner to be our next Slann ascension.

 

I am not totaly sure about that.
@LizardWizard is closer to it

Grrr, Imrahil

 

Yes... but your posting rate is VASTLY superior to his (at least as of late). You've been eating into his lead at a very rapid pace.

 

Agreed, @Imrahil is much more of a regular at this point in time - I am regularly blessed by likes from him which is evidence enough - whereas our Grand Skink Handler only seems to appear periodically to add some of his wisdom about AoS before going off to handle more Skinks.

Keep going @Imrahil my friend! If the luck of the Old Ones is with you you’ll soon catch him!

 

Thanks mate, I'll try my best

Grrr, Imrahil

 

Looking at the standings, @Scalenex seems poised to make a run at the top four with two inactive members are directly ahead of him. Just over a thousand posts and he'll have sole possession over fourth place (at least until @Lizards of Renown passes him ).

 

Congrats to @Lord Agragax of Lunaxoatl for reaching the 10,000 likes mark! (I thought I'd give you that last push over the finish line!)

Enjoy a Bugmans XXXXXX to mark the occasion

 

Thanks mate, glad to see my hobby endeavours are so highly appreciated!

And you know what this means? I’M A DOUBLE LIKE-SLANN EVERYONE!!!!!




Thank you all for your continued appreciation!

Or preferably three

Love the usage of the later 6th Edition Dwarf army book on the packaging there - a beverage for all true Dwarfs!
