Dear DJG,

Do not attempt to excel to the Cloud GIantess' heights.

It is futile.

The Cloudspammer knows no peer! There have been those who have tried to match her, and have gone stark raving mad trying. You might as well try to envision infinity, because for every post you make, Cloudy always has one more.

Wheels within wheels, posts within posts. Cloudy's posts exists within hyperdimensions of which you cannot even begin to fathom. It is rumored that there have actually been new dimensions created from her postings. Every time her mouse clicks on the "Submit" button, a new solar system is birthed in a new meta-universe.

It is pointless to attempt to even come close to Cloudy's level. You will be more successful counting the grains of sand in the Sahara, or the drops of water in the Pacific ocean.

If you do but attempt to understand the breadth of the postings of the Cloudmistress, approach it from a meta-level, encompassing the whole rather than breaking it down into the sum of her posts. Define it as you would define Aleph-null, the first level of infinity.

Peace, and Zen posting,

No, tons of interruptions today. Lots of the "I need" kind... where I had to jump up and find/fix things every 20 minutes. Disruptive to concnentration...bringing things home again...sigh. But I got an hour of good solid spreadsheet work in last night.

Cloudy, headed home now

Let us assume that flood control has been activated at 60 seconds (on average) and that it only takes Meta-Cloud a nanosecond to make a post. This means she has spent 5.35 continous days posting!

I do believe that Cloudbringer is immune to the 60 second flood control rule.

Next she'll have her clouds taking her off to pico-world.

You are all sadly deluded about Cloudbringer. My contacts from a previous employment have obtained the following information.

Cloudbringer is not a single person but is the name of an extremely sinister organisation. It comprises 8 highly trained specialists. They work a shift pattern and there are always at least 4 members of the group monitoring the fora at any one time. They operate up to six computers but only one person can post messages at any one time. A seventh computer synchronizes the other six so that postings are not released until the 60-second flood control limit is reached.

Each member of the group is given different areas of responsibility. There are two people responsible for North America, two for Europe, two for Australasia, and one each for the rest of the world and the Andaman Islands.

In addition individuals are allocated specific jobs. One member takes full responsibility for the so-called ‘Welcome Wagon’ and monitors the activity of any newcomers. Another monitors the posting activity of individuals who may be closing the gap on the number of the group’s posts. A third monitors the activities of the one named ‘Memnoch’ because he is known to be a Xylon from the planet Tharg and is recognized to be a threat to Cloudbringers hegemony of the board. One person is also allocated the task of increasing the number of the groups’ aliases, ensuring that there is a regular flow of CloudNames. Finally one member does nothing but prowl the different fora encouraging people to log onto General Discussions so as to increase the number of members drawn into Cloudbringer’s net. In times of real crisis this person will even go to the lengths of frequenting other gaming Boards for fresh blood

Members of the board are cross-referenced against each other and a careful watch is kept on any members who are becoming too friendly. If this is seen to be happening a member of Cloudbringer will be detailed to interrupt the flow of the thread by posting messages, which have absolutely nothing to do with anything.

Their motives are unclear and they operate from a bunker somewhere in the Kalahari Desert. I beseech all members of the group, please do not be fooled by this group, they appear to be friendly, outgoing, fun loving and interesting but in reality they are……………………………………………………….


THIS POST HAS BEEN TERMINATED BY THE CLOUDTHOUGHTPOLICE. MOVE ALONG, NOTHING TO SEE HERE.
