Most "First Week" Posts at TH?

Derek Reaban · Posted: Wed Apr 27, 2005 2:53 pm Post subject: Most "First Week" Posts at TH?

Seeing trumpetmike’s 999 (and counting) post come to the top, I thought it would be interesting to see how many posts everyone made in their first week and what forums those posts were in.

I had 15 in my first week:

8 - Pedagogy
3 - Recordings
2 - Fundamentals
1 - Literature
1 - High Range Development

Last week I had 28 and it looked like this:

13 - Orchestral / Chamber Music / Solo
6 - Pedagogy
6 - The Lounge
1 - Fundamentals
1 - Horns
1 - Schools

I recall MarchardFerguson had something like 80+ his first day (I'm not sure how many he had in the first week).

I dread to think, but I seem to remember that my first posts were praising the Blackburn Eb cornet and recounting a story of when I went to visit the Amati shop in Prague. Not to mention the story behind the Bessons stuff you see on Ebay.
Maybe it's time to revisit some old haunts?

Marchard killed the record in a day like Wilt Chamberlin killed the most points in a basketball game record, and I doubt it will ever be matched. What ever happened to him anyways?

Oh yeah, he's probably practicing.

Under my "new and improved post zapping" username, I made nine posts. When I first joined TH waaaaaaaaaaay back in 2003, I set up a username but I don't think I posted in the first week after I registere -- if I did, it was only a couple of posts (I think).

Amazingly, my viewpoint hasn't changed regarding that piece - I still perform it on a D trumpet (haven't done so for days!), still think that Crispian's recording is the finest around and have only been listening to it again in the past few days - scary!

I only had like 30 my first week really maybe a few more or less. Im to lazy to search and count how many and where they were though.

I think I was checking out TH occasionally for about 4 months before I even registered, then it was like another couple of months before my first post. My registering really coincided with the week I dug my Ambassador and Strad out of storage and became a comebacker.

I don't know how many I made in the first week, but I just went and checked and the first post I made was about the death of a good friend

I must have been feeling rotten and hanging out at another trumpet site, when someone told me about TH.

I can't believe I made 22 posts in one week! That's something like 12% of all of my posts over the past 3 years! I am lucky if I have time to post at all lately, unless I'm really bored or can't sleep (like right now).

The breakdown:
Performers - 6
Fundamentals -3
Recordings - 3
Orchestral/Chamber/Solo - 3
James Stamp - 2
Literature, Other Toys, Pedagogy, High Range Development, Lounge - 1 each

whatever I have now (70-somthing, I think) is what I hve in my first week. I think Yesterday was my week anaversery.. but I could be very wrong. I mostly havn't posted in about three days, either. So it's more like by first four days... lol I think 90% of them were in The Lounge. At least.
