We blame Crothian. One GenCon he decided to start a very long thread in the Meta forum whilst all the moderators were away gaming. This then became a running joke...eventually it was named the Hivemind.

Did I ever tell you guys why I've had this avatar?

If I remember it right, there was three people talking about things in general with two of them flirting heavily. I came into it late in the thread.

Wouldn't surprise if Crothian was involved. He must be over 1 million posts by now

He has about 44 thousand. Nowhere near the posting speed he used to have.

Hanging in there. Better than the alternative.

I used to have a posting speed higher than his... and there were one or two others as well. That pace is hard to keep up and depends on your life's schedule (having time to come on here) and the activity of the board (having sufficient things to reply to).

If I recall, it was essentially the same as whatever this thread is about - just a place for random conversation or things that are off-topic even for the off-topic forum. There was often tons of joking around, but censored more than Circvs Maximvs.

Congratulations! I hit 7 and decided to take it slow, as there's not much incentive afterwards. Also, someone brought up the point - for 1.2M AP, would you rather have 1 L8 or 4 L6's?

Anyways, that's quite the accomplishment! They announced they're going to open up more levels, I think, so it's not over...

For some reason I have it in my head that the thread name was always something ridiculous, and then someone started doing alphabetical alliterations (first an A thread, then a B thread, and so on), and then it got stuck on H for Hivemind.
