Who do you think the top 10 bot posters are in the showcases?

I'll give the answer next Wednesday.

Edit: I should warn you that each post with an image gets one point regardless of content (it could have numerous bots or be merely a meme).

No idea how I am not included.......especially if you count all of my stuff from the history of stock Ra2 in terms of content

ianh05 · « **Reply #5 on:** March 27, 2013, 06:12:40 PM »

You do show 6 bots at a time a fair bit but Trov is only counting images as 1 bot.

ianh05 · « **Reply #7 on:** March 27, 2013, 06:18:33 PM »

lol I know that, but he is probably only counting showcases on this forum. He must have got some sort of forum image counter.

infiniteinertia · « **Reply #8 on:** March 27, 2013, 06:23:24 PM »

well thats unfair because i used to have a 75+ page showcase -_-

MassimoV · « **Reply #9 on:** March 27, 2013, 08:36:34 PM »

Probably me, ty, Nar, 123, S_M, and FOTEPX. Dunno the others.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #10 on:** March 27, 2013, 08:46:18 PM »

definitely not me...

Trovaner · « **Reply #11 on:** March 27, 2013, 10:45:58 PM »

As stated in my edit, the program is only counting the number of posts with images in them that are found in the showcase sections (excluding the quoted images didn't seem to change the top 10 posters). I didn't turn this into a contest because the way that it is counting things doesn't give the most accurate of results.

The scope is also limited to the GTM forums from 2004 to now (everything in the forum's records) so you may want to consider people that aren't around anymore.

OK now I have no worries

Venko · « **Reply #13 on:** March 28, 2013, 02:09:07 PM »

I had a lots of them, but my showcase was deleted, so is the pics in "the RAR with my pics" count? I mean, they all were posted once...

Trovaner · « **Reply #14 on:** March 28, 2013, 03:21:59 PM »

It doesn't dig into files or count attachments. It is only looking for the [img] tag in a post that is outside of quote tags. It is too hard to get a rough estimate by other means because everyone does things differently. Although, I've always recommended posting one bot per post and that seems to be what most people did in the past.

i bet im on the list

Trovaner · « **Reply #16 on:** April 03, 2013, 08:02:36 PM »

As I've stated numerous times before, the way I calculated these ranks is not without its flaws but I hope that you guys find it as interesting as I did.

I didn't give you guys the numbers but I will tell you that quite a few of the ranks could have moved around over the past week (although, they didn't) and there are some users that were really close to getting on the lists.

Using the same method of calculation, are there any guesses as to what years stock and DSL were most popular? (1 year for each)

Mr. AS · « **Reply #17 on:** April 03, 2013, 08:16:01 PM »

oooh #9 for stock. not too shabby!

stock = 2011
dsl = 2012

Badnik96 · « **Reply #18 on:** April 03, 2013, 08:21:45 PM »

4th most in custom? Must have been all those part reskins

ianh05 · « **Reply #19 on:** April 03, 2013, 08:30:08 PM »

4th most in stock O.o

I will say was most popular in 2009 and DSL in 2011.
