Thanks Julie, Number is in my head, let's get it rollin'! The Last Person To Post Wins thread, general rules: 1. Winner of the last thread starts the new one with a post of these rules. 2. Chooses a future event which triggers the winner, e.g. post number, date-time, and records it privately somehow (yellow sticky, etc.) 3. Everyone has fun posting until the target event is reached. 4. When the target is reached, old winner posts declaration of new winner and also PMs them. 5. Shortly after this a Mod will lock the recently won thread. 6. Go to 1. Supplemental rules: A. Multiple posting (the same poster posting two or more posts in succession) is frowned upon, and no element of a multiple posting may trigger the winning event. Thus the first following non multiple post will win. B. However the winning event is defined, it should probably take less than 600 posts and less than two weeks to achieve. C. Posting of larger pics is discouraged (Modem users do still exist, sometimes people read the forum via their mobile data, and these threads can get quite long.) D. Don't post any clearly copyrighted pictures. E. The post rules listed to the left of your post box are all enforced Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

So apparently, I'm an idiot. The other day, I went to a hobby shop looking for specific train cars. I found two of them. Then I went home and got on the manufacturer's web site and ordered a third one, but it came yesterday and turned out to be a duplicate of one of the ones I just bought. I suppose I can try to unload it on ebay. Maybe I'll just use it anyway and hope no one notices I have two of the same car in the train. Or maybe I'll see if I can get decals to change the lettering. I already have two of another type, but at least they're different specific ones, and I can justify running two of it. Ping!
