- Tis the season and all that jazz. I figure now that Petey is back
- I'll give y'all a way-cool gift for the yule season. It's just
- a little game to be played using that master of the SAT's posts.
- The object is to take any two of Petey Honey's posts and show
- were they appear to be written by two different people. The
- object is to get two that come in to your newsserver as close
- together as possible. If you manage to have two in the same
- post you get extra points. Heres an example of what I mean:

- These two posts came to my newsserver as 105926 and 105929. So they
- were separated by 2 other posts. We can set up some sort of point
- awards such as:
-
- Same article 20 points
- 1 article apart 15 points
- 2-5 article apart 10 points
- 2-10 articles apart 5 points
- more than 10 article 1 point
-
- Since articles come into each newservicer at various rates and in
- various order we will have to rely on each others honor to post
- how far apart each article is. I guess we will also need to post
- what time we posted the evidence so that if two people come in
- with the same examples we will be able to tell who gets credit
- for the points.
-
- Just a little way of making Petey's posts fun to read again over
- the yule season. His posts have gotten rather boring and this
- should liven them up somewhat.
-
- Thanks Petey,
- Dan King
