In case you're wondering, I'm just going for 1400 personal posts. Someone had suggested I try for 1500 by the 31st (one week from tomorrow) so what the heck.

With the way I've got my screen/browser formatted, and with Avs and Signatures on, I'm showing that we're now up to 700 pages worth of posts in this therad alone. What about you guys?

I have it set for 40 posts per page so my current display says that there are 263 pages of posts in this thread.

I can usually see ~3 replies in the space that my window provides w/ avatars and sigs turned on (I run a 1600x1200 display, but do not maximize the window as other things are running that I want to be able to keep an eye on).

At the beginning of the thread the estimated completion date was sometime roughly in 2023, after a while it moved to sometime in 2025 (late in the year).

We then had the Pixes death scare and rocketed the date back three full years to some time in 2022. But that is quickly slipping back out to 2023.

If actual interest in the thread continues at the current pace I would say that 2024 or 2025 is a likely completion time. But I strongly suspect that we will not be able to hold the momentum on the thread :)

I guess I need to play with the calculator for a while to see what kinds of posting rates would put us at what dates.

[IAKaraokeGirl]

10,542~Is that kind of like an independent research project, with intense scrutinization? :D

[dadaist]

10543

Yes!
Plus you know it'll have to be well documented, including illustrations, potentially photographic ones.

[IAKaraokeGirl]

10,544~I'm sure you'd "make the grade." :D

Gotta go for a lot of extra credit too.

It's Smurf Trivia Time!!!!! Thanks Dadiast!


On October 23, 1958 the Smurfs made their first appearance in a story of Johan & Peewit in “Le Journal de Spirou”. Their creator Peyo had worked previously at a number of drawing jobs. But the introduction of the Smurfs into Spirou would change his life.

[Eliza]

10, 618

Far, very far from here, in a little village full of mushroom-shaped houses live the Smurfs. The little characters are three apples high, have blue skin and are dressed in white trousers and a cap. Yet they are a happy, easy-going bunch - give or take one or two.

[Eliza]

10,619

The Smurfs speak a very strange language. Some words are replaced by “Smurf”, as well as some of the verbs. Instead of saying, “I caught a cold in the nose”, they would say, “I smurfed a smurf in the nose“.

[Eliza]

10,620

Who are the smurfs????? Welll let me introduce you!!!

You can recognise the village leader with his white beard and red clothes. Papa Smurf is no less than 542 years old - and no more either. He uses his wisdom to advise rather than tell people what to do. He often rescues the younger Smurfs from danger. He’s also a pretty good alchemist.

Papa Smurf (http://www.smurf.com/infos/who/02grand.gif)

[dadaist]

10621

In the long running Hanna-Barbera cartoon, Papa Smurf was voiced by Don Messick. Don is probably best known as the original Voice of Scoobert (Scooby) Doo.

A long LONG list of other voice roles he did can be found on imdb.com

Don also did:
Azrael/Dreamy Smurf/Sleepy Smurf

[Eliza]

10,622

SMURFETTE

The wicked Gargamel originally created Smurfette to stir up trouble in the village. But Papa Smurf’s magic turned into the charming little Smurf that everyone adores

Smurfette (http://www.smurf.com/infos/who/03fette.gif)

[dadaist]

10623

Paul Winchell was the original voice of Gargamel, from 1981-1989.
He also voiced Baby Smurf and Nosey Smurf.

[Eliza]

10,624


Brainy
The only Smurf to take everything seriously. Brainy is a moraliser who believes everything Papa Smurf says is sacred. Everyone puts up with him, but let’s face it: he’s a bore. In fact, he’s a real pain in the Smurf.



Brainy (http://www.smurf.com/infos/who/10moral.gif)

[dadaist]

10625

Smurfette was voiced by Lucille Bliss, who has also done home computer and arcade game voices, including Daphne in Dragon's Lair.

[dadaist]

10626

Danny Goldman was the voice of Brainy Smurf.

[Eliza]

10,627

JOKEY

Jokey spends all his time concocting pranks. He builds gift-wrapped packages that explode in your face. He has an endless stream of jokes. Sometimes, he gets on everyone’s nerves. And once in a while, his jokes backfire on him.


Jokey (http://www.smurf.com/infos/who/11farce.gif)

[dadaist]

10628

Jokey Smurf (and Mother Nature) were voiced by none other than June Foray, also famous for "Granny" in many a WB cartoon of the "Golden Age" as well as Rocket J. Squirrel, aka Rocky.

[Eliza]

10,629

GROUCHY

No matter what anyone says, Grouchy is against it. He grumbles and mumbles and always thinks negative. But underneath it all, he’s a softy and loves Sassette and Baby. But he’d hate it if people knew.


Grouchy (http://www.smurf.com/infos/who/12grogn.gif)

[dadaist]

10630

Grouchy (and Handy and Lazy and Johan) were all voiced by Michael Bell.

[Eliza]

10,631
