I guess we're not doing too poorly, consider that there are only five of us participating. Sigh

Okay, that makes sense - when the thread gets to the appropriate spot(s), I'll jump in with a number, then wait to see if someone comes up with the next one within a reasonable period of time.  Most of my in-sequence stuff is identical except for the number, anyway, and not much point in boring folks with it.

I'm not against someone posting a short sequence but at the same time it's nice to give folks a chance to post the numbers they have been waiting to get included.  This is why I pause for awhile between numbers even if I have them in my roster.  If you only have a few numbers before there is a huge gap in your roster then I would understand why you might want to get the sequence in when the numbers reach what you are looking for.

So, I would say a sequence is OK; but, don't post a large sequence to give others a chance to join the fun and if say a few hours pass since your last post then fell free to post the next number / short sequence.  There are folks waiting to get to higher numbers to join in so we don't want to get stuck if you have the number(s) either.

Make since?

A question on the "rules", if I may.  Are we limited to one number at a time, or can we post a sequence when it's the appropriate numbers?
