I wouldn't be there if I hadn't made all the posts I had, so of course I am.
You are a 'Site Administrator' not in 'The Twilight Zone'!
Well he's still made the greatest number of posts, irrespective of what zone he's in...

As The Orange One has said, you just need to edit the URL to http://www.tubechallenge.com/forum/view ... 5000#p5000 (or whatever).

I'm rather curious about the first nine posts - Tubeguru's Forum Introduction comes at post #10 and the first nine are deleted. Were they tests?

It seems to be some sort of haiku - as I would have guessed given the very next post is also a haiku.

The quintuples are quite amusing:

11111 - jonny (something to do with forum league fixtures)
22222 - deleted
33333 - tubeguru: "another update to collate all of this rubbish" (from National Rail Where Am I?)
44444 - Soup Dragon: a rather daring "15 Swede" post in Tumbleweed
55555 - geofftech: long post pouring scorn on TfL's PR operation
66666 - palkanetoijala31, "giving a shout out to any old members who havent posted for a while to see if still alive". Quite why they'd want to respond to his post rather than anyone else's isn't obvious.
77777 - RobbieM: "Doing the Nuts' Challenge?" (a rather surprising query in a UK "Where Am I?")
88888 - a post of mine in the Counting thread, linking to 2394 metres up, a rather impressive video of two Eritrean steam locomotives.
99999 - follow that! EDIT: tractakid saying "blah", significantly raising the intellectual level :)

Which post does it say is the "first" - #10 as you have it there?

http://www.tubechallenge.com/forum/view ... p?p=10#p10 - this one (Forum Information - PLEASE READ).

The first post that's not a Tubeguru introductory post - I'll assume that's what 15, 16 and 17 are - is #20, which is this one http://www.tubechallenge.com/forum/view ... p?p=20#p20
