TEG 10k

[bonnie]

Is this an absurd level of build-up or what?? :biggrin:

Delightfully so.

I believe some were not amused. And there are others among us who always want video proof.

Well at least one was not amused.

It's been an unusually long time since he has posted a message...

 

[bonnie]

This is going to be like the last episode of Seinfeld.

If TEG were to remove some of his very old posts, would the counter go down?

 

[JRod0802]

Is anyone else refreshing this page at least once per hour, just waiting to see what happens?

 

[doug]

If TEG were to remove some of his very old posts, would the counter go down?

Yes. He actually has an unusually high number of self edited or deleted posts (some long after the original posting). So if you include those, he broke 10K a long time ago.

It's not quite as bad as waiting for Roadster delivery. :biggrin:

But at least we had a status report with that. TEG has gone silent.

 

[NigelM]

Maybe he's gone back to delete a few and keep it at 9,999...every episode ends with a surprise just like "24".

"Who is TEG? He is supposed to be Turkish. Some say his father was German. Nobody believed he was real. Nobody ever saw him or knew anybody that ever worked directly for him, but to hear Kobayashi tell it, anybody could have worked for TEG. You never knew. That was his power. The greatest trick TEG ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist. And like that, poof. He's gone."

I see the resemblance:

Me too! ;-)

I see the resemblance:

Outstanding!

:biggrin: ... "More TEG than TEG is our motto"

 

[Doug_G]

Still no TEG. Apparently we've raised expectations too much. We've scared him off!!!

 

[bonnie]

Now you're just baiting him. For shame!

 

[Norbert]

Maybe he is deprogramming himself and will come back as a Volt fan...

 

[rolosrevenge]

Perhaps his true underlying motive was to troll us by making 9,999 useful posts and then disappear while we wait forever for the 10,000th. What a diabolical scheme! And it is working!

 

[NigelM]

It's a Y2K problem....

 

[markwj]

His last few posts have all shown 9,999.

Here's me hoping it would have wrapped back to 0 ;-)
