Man, I see this whole thing deteriorating pretty quickly. How is it that every thread goes from a normal topic, a big bash-fest, some snide comments, and then a love-in? We shouldn't even post replies to topics anymore because we all know it's going to end with someone making an asshole comment and a bunch of sweaty guys exchanging their prison wife stories.
On a serious note, I think that it's cool to have the positions, but it'd work better if there were a way to randomize it instead of still having them by post count. I doubt it's possible, but that's my pipe dream. At least, everything after Newbie could be random.
