The stars are for every three months, correct?

So how can you have four before it's 3 July????

Just wondering. *sheepish grin*

Edit: It's because you touch yourself at night...:P

Probably because the system assumes that each month has 30 days, thus you get a star every 90 days. There are months with 31 days which would screw things up a bit.

Must be...touching oneself at night has many unusual side effects, seeing stars being among one of them. :D

hmm i stand corrected.

maybe its the way mike calculates months using 30 days as the counter. 30*12 = 360. 5 day difference, and today is the 28 which is 5 days from the 2nd/3rd depending. :) [EDIT: that means 90 days per quarter, which isnt precise. 91 days would be more accurate, but im guessing he used a month based thing not quarter based thing.]

*looks at the two "because you touch yourself" posts*

*sigh* Children... :D

Then again, it is aerius and jmac, so... :P

As to what I'm implying with that, it's the least possible offensive one. Really. :wink:

You ought to get your fourth on june 28th, which is yesterday, odd.
I'll be getting mine in december, so I've a ways to go. But I'm quickly reaching 2000 posts, nothing to do in these summer weeks you know.

Nuts, I was planning on gloating about how I had four stars before all the July 3rd people, but because of the inaccuracy of the system, I MISSED MY CHANCE FOR GLOATING! Damn.

Finally they begin to serve some purpose, since half the board is no longer three stars.
