Im sure most of know who the usual suspects are in the discussion threads and know that SSG Burns, Robert type one each and SSG Woods, V. Michelle one each lead the pack. SO......of the two who will hit a million first? Taking all bets....lol

I have a feeling someone will hack the site and boost their points before anyone legitimately reaches it. If that doesn't happen, my vote is on SSG Woods. Seems like he spends more time on here than in his duty uniform. (That was meant in light humor, I appreciate all the hard work SSG Woods and everyone else puts into keeping this site insightful and professional.)

Hmmm...I'm interested to know as well lol. SSG Robert Burns is quite the comedian so I'm not sure I can compete with him ;)

Perhaps the RP staffers have another 'twist' up their sleeves for points to shake things up even more! lol!

another question to ask is whether or not, RP has written the code to allow 7 digits for the Influence Points. If not, will their scores simply roll over to zero again like old cars and their odometers?

Just thinking out loud for a few minutes . . .

If you look at SSG V. Michelle Woods versus SSG Robert Burns points history . . . and their implications re past and future strategies . . .

SSG Woods substantially leads in her votes cast, comments posted, and mentions given resulting in a substantial lead in RP community endorsements and profile views.

SSG Burns substantially leads in questions and responses posted resulting in a substantial lead in RP community responses received and trail blazer points.

In the end, barring any substantial change in personality, expression, and/or strategy . . . and any substantial change in RP point award system . . . SSG Woods will most definitely wipe the floor with SSG Burns in this or any other reasonably fair / equitable competition.

However. if SSG Burns were to adopt some of SSG Woods overall strategy . . . then he may have half a chance of attracting a few more RP community endorsements and profile views.

Of course . . . I'm getting rather long in the tooth . . . a bit jaded . . . rather biased in my support for incredibly brilliant highly capable hard working young women . . . soooooo . . . I would invest my money in SSG V. Michelle Woods to totally crush the competition!!!

After all . . . it is hard for a gentle male tiger like SSG Robert Burns to change his stripes.

The real question in my mind . . . why aren't there more women in top 10 - 20 RP scorers?

Warmest Regards, Sandy

I think member of the year award should be worth 1,000,000 points alone. Just saying.

I could not help this, so I apologize in advance as I snicker!

So now that SSG V. Michelle Woods has surpassed half a million influence point on RP, if any of the 2LT's on RP run into her do they have to salute her?

Tough call... SSG Woods is definitely the frontrunner in this forum, but SSG Burns is definitely close. I'd watch out for the darkhorses though, like SFC Baber, MCPO Young, SSG Pabon, MAJ Petrarca and 1LT Annala; just to name a few...
