<p>This is very frustrating… All of you who have kindly greenied me will jsut ahve to wait, as it is saying I have to spread the love further than before. I think I need a shot of penicillin. Sounds creepy.</p>
<p>Moreover, I repped you last night so I will book you for tomorrow night. </p>
<p>As for my green square progress, I am a mere padawan learning from Obi-Wan LoremIpsum’s techniques and knowledge and deeply humbled by the fairy dusts bestowed on me by the Empress, Lorem, and all other generous players like you. :)</p>
<p>Thank you, folks! Xiggi and “TNT” helped me over the top for another green. But who is TNT? My memory fails me – it’s from a seasoned vet, not the person registered as TNT, who has all of two posts.</p>
<p>I am channeling an abbreviation with Texas for no logical reason.</p>
<p>I got some from TNT too. Thanks!</p>
<p>This thread is slow!</p>
<p>I am 3 points from another green box.</p>
<p>Too soon for me again, somemom. Ready in about 22 hours.</p>
<p>somemom if my calculations are correct I can’t rep you until tomorrow but will try tonight. I’m out of juice this morning.</p>
<p>Every time I click on this thread, I am reminded that its all about the greenies and veered FAAAAR away from original topic. I hope the initial posters and the OP don’t mind.</p>
<p>bookworm, I think that the prestigiousity of individual members (as evidenced by little green boxes) just adds to what they can contribute to threads, and, therefore, to the prestigiousity of schools. </p>
<p>Sort-of like having Nobel prize winners contributes to the prestige of schools, if you care about that instead of prestigiousity.</p>
<p>Good day all! Glad to be here with daytime greenies - can’t hit jym,LI, poetgrl, sherpa, 12rmh,or dowzerw yet but on my list. Thanks to all my fine friends for last night’s love. I also have my first totally blank comment box -interesting.</p>
<p>Oh, bookworm, I definitely see the link between the greenies and prestigiosity ratings. Yep. Its there.</p>
<p>While we are at it (at what?!), I am curious about the age ranges of those who have gotten sucked into the green square syndrome. Id like to tally under 25s and over 25 years old. I’ll start. </p>
<p>Over 25. Definitely over.</p>
<p>Over 25. Write me up for two spots.</p>
<p>But isn’t this what you would expect in the parents’ section of a college-bound message board?</p>
<p>Mo, thanks for sharing your splendor with me. 
I’ll be back tonight to spread more love.</p>
<p>dowzer: 25 is in my rearview mirror too. I didn’t play video games in my college years, so perhaps the conquest of greenies is part of a mid-life crisis?</p>
<p>definitely over 25 except in my dreams! Do not make more any more age categories besides these two :).</p>
<p>My pleasure 12rmh.
I have never played anything but a little tetris and a few internet word games, so I share your concerns.</p>
<p>LI, Im too old to notice which yard I am playing in any more. I just wanted to get a sense of how many “grown ups” are guilty of absolutely useless time wasting behavior. I imagine if we met in real life, we would never admit to these activities. Shhh…its just between us! ;)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>In a society where millions of people watch American Idol, this would be considered an embarrassment?</p>
<p>(For what it’s worth, I have never actually seen American Idol – I don’t even own a TV set anymore)</p>
<p>dowzerw 482,
I suspect most of us on this thread are over 25. It’s “parent forum” after all. :)</p>
<p>Cough. Cough. I’m ashamed. You’re missing out Lorem. Sometimes, you come across a talent that is like a bud unfolding right in front of you.</p>
