Board question:

[Ima Facultiwyfe]

How are those little titles that appear beneath our user names assigned? "Victory Cigar, Bench Warmer, In the Rotation", etc.? I find the image of a dowdy faculty wife like me puffing on a victory cigar amusing. I'd be much better suited to warming a bench...the wider the bench, the better.
Love, Ima

Zero to fifty posts = Hoop dreams. Fifty to a hundred = Victory Cigar, etc, etc. Right?

Something like that. The levels go quite high. It will be interesting to see if anyone can figure it all out. It would be impossible at this point as no one is anywhere close to the top several levels and the two leading posters (me and Throaty) are both moderators with "Special" titles that others do not get

OK, so basically, I'm posting to see what shows up by my name
Besides I haven't posted anything in a while.

If you live long enough and post enough times, you can be Chairman of the Board of Trustees!

I liked the idea that someone threw out there that we would be able to choose certain players from the appropriate category. For example, as "In the Rotation", I would have been able to choose Zoubs last year (on most nights, at least).

While the system won't let you customize your title, I suggest that using your signature to declare yourself in the role of a certain "in the rotation" player would be appropriate. As your title advances, you can modify the signature appropriately.

Nice idea...Now I have a sig - Dibs on the 9-fingered lithuanian

Dibs on Buckner!

One day in practice Patrick Davidson landed a monster 540 dunk over Marty that had K furious. Marty whined that he was trying as hard as he could. K just nodded at PD. Patrick then grabbed Marty's hand, bit off the end of the middle finger, spat it out, and said "try harder."

Funny, I thought after PD spat out the middle finger, he sneered at Marty and said:
"You've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya punk?"

The "Victory Cigar" is a bit lame. I will not be satisfied until I achieve Patrick Davidson level, whatever that is.
