<p>Never watched Idol, couldn’t find the time.</p>
<p>I dont know about embarrassment but definitely a huge time killer! Would I want to admit that part of why I dont get done all I need to and why I dont go to bed is my quest for more greeeeennnnn??!!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I envy you, Moreover, if you can play “a little Tetris.” </p>
<p>“A little Tetris” is to absweetmarie as “just one drink” is to an alcoholic.</p>
<p>I am over 25 (times two, plus a little, if y’all must know). But I kick lots of under-25 boo-tay in Tetris Battle. THEY CALL ME THE COMBO QUEEN!!!</p>
<p>tigerdad14, dvr. Then watch while you’re prepping, cooking, baking in the kitchen. Our gym also has built-in TVs on the exercise machines so I watch while I’m on the stairmaster or treadmill.</p>
<p>Work from 8-8. Can’t watch whle kid is playing piano or doing homework.</p>
<p>I think tigerdad needs some green love. I’m tapped out right now but I will spread some green cheer on you when my greenie-bank is recharged.</p>
<p>Thanks for the new greens, ya’ll. </p>
<p>I do think that this is working for Roger, et al, if increasing clicks is their goal. I will admit I have been frequenting another set of sites lately for DDs research, and the cafe had been less compelling than usual, so my visits were down. This week I look forward to my nightly granting of points, 36 each now. And to seeing how many new points I have in the morning.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Yep. It’s a byproduct of becoming a parent. :)</p>
<p>For you blackjack players out there: I just need 18 more points, then I can bestow perfect 21’s to everyone!</p>
<p>Yes, I will give some rep to tigerdad too but the rep I gave 12rmh18 this morning was the last one for the day.</p>
<p>I’ll try to give you some tonight Lorem. For my last rep batch, the first one I did was around 10 pm last night and the tenth one was this morning. Hopefully, some powers are restored tonight.</p>
<p>Definitely over 25. I think perhaps it’s fair to say that with wisdom comes appreciation for little green boxes… such fine distinctions might be lost on the under-25 group. </p>
<p>Certainly I wouldn’t be surprised to hear “You have to wait HOW long to get more? TWENTY-FOUR HOURS? Seriously?” (accompanied by fond good-ole-mom-type headshaking).</p>
<p>I like the tie-in to prestigiosity ratings for posters and subsequent additions/subtractions to the presigiosity index. For example: I haven’t acquired very many points yet so if I try to add rep pts to someone does that hurt their individual presigiosity? Does that then hurt the prestigiosity of the school they either attended or mention frequently?</p>
<p>If it helps- my kid knows someone who goes to a top 5 prestigiosity school. Does that give their school bonus points too? As in: “I might not stick around Podunk U this weekend but instead, go to visit my friend at MHYPS”</p>
<p>Gave some to tigerdad and TV4caster - tapped out till morning.</p>
<p>TV4caster - That adds to the kid’s prestigiousity, but I don’t think it does much for Podunk U. The reaction to that statement is “well, of course you’d rather do that” which just reflects the prestigiousity of MHYPS (see Baylor).</p>
<p>Sprinkled some green sparkles on confetti and TV. Can’t share with others yet! I think I’m tapped out for the night.</p>
<p>I get mine in the mid-morning now so I will check on all my green buddies, then. Good night everyone.</p>
<p>I have some. Fuel now, spreading it around while watching the news</p>
<p>I won’t get any greenies till afternoon but wanted to check in anywhere but the decision threads. Someone in another thread commented on my status changes and I had a moment where I wanted to justify my green sparkles… had to remind myself to wear my splendor proudly :D</p>
<p>Wow-- thanks to all you kind folks, the final descriptor of “reputation beyone repute” is in sight".Can ya help me out?? I will shower you with mega points in return!</p>
<p>Argh! I will try, jym626. But it seems I can’t get the hang of the reputation rhythm. I doled out points to one person this morning and then was told I had given out my allotment for the 24-hour period.</p>
<p>jym, I’m blocked from giving any more points to you for some period–perhaps the more points you get, the harder it is for people to give you more?</p>
