Seventh Tardis - The Doctor Who thread
Yes, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I thought they got the balance just right... and avoided putting too many tributes in. The Peter Davison -penned "Why wasn't I in the 50th?" romp was very good too! :-)

Seventh Tardis - The Doctor Who thread

Ha, didn't notice I was already on there :) but at least you can wind my age back a tad :) The age is right, isn't it? ie 49 in Oct 2014? Yes, the body apparently replaces every single one of its cells every 7 years. But the annoying thin…

Interesting, I love graphs me :) . Do the other criteria align (have a relationship to them anyway) with the comment numbers (ie users and page views) ? Pretty much so for the 'Page views'. I've added a screen grab for that to the ear…

Just out of curiosity, Halloween_Jack, but how many members are registered to this forum? Like to see some statistics on that, if it's not too much trouble... Sure, although it's skewed by all the spam-applications we had pre-November. * …
