Game: Top of the Clock-Only replies posted at ??:00 count-24chances to score each day
RulesAll entries in this game are judged only by the myopera forum Vbulletin system clock and the time it says you posted. Only one entry per member per hour will be counted, so the max points you can get in one day is 24. Obvioulsy this posting isn't a point for me, but if I was posting in this thread at 02:00 (system time) then I would get a point for that post and I'd try to include my current score in that post.

I have a free program from World Time Server called Atomic Clock Sync on my computer. It will set your computer to the exact time.

1) I have TClock and it does the same among many other cool stuff.
2) But we can't be sure Opera's server is running on it. They may not be synchronizing -- for example, I've set my hand watch to atomic time, and when I went to school the bells were actually like 3 minutes late...

My newest invention: get TClock and make it alarm you with an sound every hour. Hopefully you'll manage to get to this thread and post before minute passes.
Are you going to sleep next to your computer?
I think we have some serious addiction problems on these forums.

I was speaking of my own addiction. I think this is a thread I need to unsubscibe from. My dog gets little enough attention as it is without me waiting for the "top of the clock."

this is one tricky little thread, I remember another forum ... there we got so hooked on it (the trick was to post every hour day and night) that every hour
there were at least 10 people sitting there with their fingers on the "submit"-button, waiting for the new hour to arrive and make the first post ... all at the same time (within .1 sec or so) and then refreshing like nutcases to see who won
we were politely asked to stop doing that when we took on 36% serverload with our forum
--> 1
