I noticed I have reached 100 WATS score and a little more....

It made me smile. I can remember when I saw 10 and thought 'wow!'. It is not the most important thing in the world, but when I look at stars and flags and WATS and karma, it makes me think "I have contributed to a place that has given so much to me!" I never thought I would ever reach 100. I am glad the members have appreciated what I had to say or issues I wanted to bring up.

I have a lot of fun here! I have learned a lot, slightly changed my viewpoint on some issues and increased my critical thinking and debate skills via learning from the best..the people here.

They have already sent you a special coloured border round the stats in your mini-profile.
That wasn't there before, was it?

Seriously?

Then congratulations, for being tenaciously opinionated.

I think that one appears at 101, to be exact. Before then you were green (in border terms).

Congratulations on earning your silver border. I have been trying to get one of those for ages

Thanks for all your time and effort put into ATS

What is the wats score thing all about anyway?

W = (posts / 600) + (flags / 80) + (stars / 170) The bang for the buck here is in flags which has the smallest denominator of 80.

That is from Schuyler.

Congratulations!!

I've noticed there are a bunch of regulars hitting that mark together. It's nice to see ... because it does take a lot of effort.

Yay. Another reason for me to drink Bourbon.

Not that I really need one.

I just noticed someone with a gold border and a wats score of 18,777. Now I wonder how much time they have spent in the real world.a reply to: Snarl

There was a computer changeover where some member's scores of all types became very large. Mainly, I notice they are constant contributors anyway.

I have settled on gin, I think. I was consuming too much calories in beer. I found vodka to put me to sleep after 2 drinks. Rum to give me indigestion. Gin and diet pepsi seems to go very well together, surprisingly.
