best RBR coverage on the internet!

but dont you think this is tooting your own horn a tiny bit

This is actually by request, from a few different people. I've also always thought it would be a good idea to have everything organized, being such an anal & OCD SOB. This is actually phase I of a much larger project, in which I'm planning to copy & paste the contents of each RBR (just the round description/scoring posts) into a notepad or Word file and eventually have them up on a blog or something for posterity, in case ESB suffers another big data-eating crash or ceases to be someday.

honestly you do a fantastic job and this is a good idea.
I was actually looking for a RBR from a couple of years ago to see what ESB thought about a fight back then, coz opinions obviously skew over time. I think fresh view points count for a lot.

I applaud the huge effort of ESB's finest poster.

Oh reeeeearry? I see no in your post...

Would you cry only crocodile tears if I should die? Hmm?

...just messing. Thanks. This took most of a day and half, between random tasks. (just the collation, that is - the actual stuff is 31 months worth. ) Very little of what might be called "productive" has thus far been accomplished at work this week.

Twitter?

It's a thought, but that might be confusing for people seeing things pop up in the stream that aren't in "real time".

Twitter is very much a "right now, this instant" kind of platform.

I could either submit the RBR posts here live as they happen and then copy/paste them to Twitter or another backup medium later, or vice versa. Posting the same information in two places live simultaneously is a logistical nightmare. It's got to be one or the other.

Well, 2009 was incomplete and 2010 was a bit on the slow side with more of the obscure international events slipping through the cracks.

104 RBR threads in 2010
Compare to 238 in 2011.

You figure 2011 is where I really started to hit a stride and pick up damn near every card possible - and what with the vBulletin character limit that means that you need a good five posts to squeeze in a full year (fitting three, in some cases two months' worth a pop of hyperlinked event titles).

I'm going to very plausibly run clear out by 2013. I guess the Mayans were right - one way or the other, it's all over in the next twelve months.
