Way to go all. I've been a bit busier in April between work and final preparation for my first marathon. I hope to be back again more in May. Thanks to all who kept the effort up. Chris

Thanks, Gaurav but today, until now, I was alone in answering, that's why. Luis Martin Moderator SQL-Server-Performance.com
Can you post how many posts each person had? I think this kind of thing is interesting. <img src='/community/emoticons/emotion-1.gif' alt='' /> Some of you guys must have hundreds a month.<br /><br />MeanOldDBA<br />derrickleggett@hotmail.com<br /><br />When life gives you a lemon, fire the DBA.

<img src='/community/emoticons/emotion-1.gif' alt='' /> I was actually thinking it would be neat to see how many posts each person has broken down by month.<br /><br />MeanOldDBA<br />derrickleggett@hotmail.com<br /><br />When life gives you a lemon, fire the DBA.
When I read Gaurav answer I think you were talking about month. May be is a good idea, but also may be that put some presion to someone. BTW: If we have those numbers, my predictions about when Satya cross 5000 post will be easier. Luis Martin Moderator SQL-Server-Performance.com

There is no automatic way to show the total number of posts per member on a month-by-month basis. I have a query I run to produce this information for the contest, but it can't be easily added to the forum. ----------------------------- Brad M. McGehee, MVP Webmaster SQL-Server-Performance.Com
Gr8 to see the old pals on the mark, as usual congratulations to the winners and runners. Keep up the good work. (thanks Luis, Derrick & Frank [8D]) Satya SKJ Moderator http://www.SQL-Server-Performance.Com/forum This posting is provided “AS IS†with no rights for the sake of knowledge sharing.
Was I a winner? Totally surprised if yes.... Perhaps there is a more worthy Karen out there? I just happened to run across this, if it is me, I have not heard from Brad yet. Just want to make sure there are no email issues. No worries here... Thanks! Token SQL Goddess Life is one fool thing after another whereas love is two fool things after each other.— Oscar Wilde
I believe Brad should wait to get answer for list of people in order to select their prizes, whatsoever left will be your choice. Anyway, congratulations on your accomplishment.
