That's most likely what did it.
I dunno, I never posted in there.

The posts from MPQ were not deleted from the post count totals, otherwise mine would have gone down a lot, and I'm pretty sure that it didn't. Maybe all of the April Fool's posts values were taken away.
This thread should be pruned.

Hey, I don't post in here just to spam up my way to a high post count. It's just really entertaining, well most of the time.
Yeah, without this thread imagine how many other useless threads would have been created for topics that we dealt with here in only 5 or 6 posts.

That doesn't mean that I post here just to increase my post count.
Hey, I'm just poking fun. Thus the wink. I enjoy reading every post of this thread because you are right, it is very entertaining... from any random topic we can think of to the debate of which is worth more, Pineconn dollars or phattonez dollars, this thread will be a classic. If it ever ends, this better be archived. That's all I can say.
This thread is bigger than a Katamari. If it gets archived, it'll need its own category just to keep it from squashing all the other threads.
I don't think that anyone could argue against the fact that Phattonez dollars are worth about 100x as much as Pineconn dollars. They're worth so much that they're not even in print.

I wonder if you can see this thread from outer space. O:

That thing is just scary.
So I just woke up after coming back from class and going right to sleep. That's 3 hours of sleep and I have a class I should be at right now. I'm pretty sure that this means I'm sick, so I guess this is the first time in about 2 years that I'm sick.
Great.
*Moan*
Man, tomorrows gonna suck. I've got the AP English test, and the second half consisted of writing three essays in 120 minutes. I'll be great through the first, alright through the second, but by the time I reach the third, I know it'll be like "Aww, man, my hand is cramping, I'm tired, I can't think straight, screw it, I'll just BS this one"
They need to take that into account when grading these things.
Oh those tests. I always had about 20 minutes of doing nothing since those essays take like no time at all. Once you get into it you can get done fast.
Oh yeah. The question is: can I "get into" the third one?
Belderan, that is just creepy.
South Park's Devil is creepy? Since when?
All of South Park is creepy. End of story.

Oh but they do, my young Padawan...
You see, a person's base level of understanding is only seen when that person is BSing...
:P in other words, they scrap the first 2 essays, and look at the third one to see if your core skills have improved enough. Otherwise, they just end up measuring how well you can copy the techniques your teachers told you about, instead of measuring your own skills.
...but it's safer just to do as well as you can on the whole thing in case I'm wrong. XD
And BS isn't necessarily bad. I've gotten some very good marks from BSing simple essays and orals (improvising). However, once you hit the college scene...It's not quite that easy. But all the BS practice you did will help you write more readily.
Moral? If you want to BS, just put a bit of thought into it, and you should be ok.
(the above is merely the experience of the poster, and is not a guideline on how to do your exams. If you DO BS your work and you screw up, you have only yourself to blame for not thinking hard enough, or having the "gift of BS" )
Never underestimate the power of bullshit! I BSed my way through the entirety of Lit 131 and got a 4.0 in the end.
Booyah.
I am a shadowy and skilled ninja of verbal BS. I can write a 10 page research paper on a subject of which I have minimal knowledge without opening a book. I know this, because I have done this.

not so shadowy.
Okay, I got my new router to work. This is why I've been very inactive on AGN lately. I intend to maintain this level of inactivity for a few more days. :evil:
