Rank (stupidity?)

If Richard Dane is No. 5, who is No. 1?

 

P.S. I ask because I'm related to Clough Williams-Ellis, who built Portmeirion; the setting for "The Prisoner".

Kuma #1

  1. Kuma
  2. Lontano
  3. Osprey
  4. BigH47
  5. I could give you a list of the "Top 20", but its not difficult to find.

I don't think Richard gives two flying ducks not being number one. It seems to bother certain individuals though.

It's not as stupid as snookers ranking system.

 

A few month after Eddie Charlton died, he re-entered the top 50.

With regards to the 'ranking system', I'd like to hear Jonathan Ross (Woss) say that!

I'm surprised Lontano is number 2 as he doesn't post on here very often now.

See fatcat's comment above re Eddie Charlton !

 

Looks like some people will do anything to move up the rankings on this forum.

It's all a bit irrelevant. People make about 20 posts a day saying what they are listening to, which is far less valuable (IMHO) than genuine advice to someone who has got in a pickle they can't resolve.

Just in case there's anyone who may have thought I was serious, the post was actually a jest based on the series "The Prisoner".

You've burst the balloon Huge.

I counted more than 30 from one poster in a few hours,  it either means he is listening to albums 24 hours a day or is obsessed with getting his ranking number up, whatever, when he posts so many in such a short time it's obvious he is not listening to them.  Sad.

Feeling nervous at # 12 ?   I and, maybe he, are still behind you.  Care to link me to one of your great revelatory posts ?  In case you are wondering, my equipment is between my speakers.  Does that ruin your day ?  Even sadder.

Prescient.

 

 

Number Six just needed to chill out with some vinyl and stop all that trying to escape malarkey.
