So here's how this works Step 1 go to five different threads and count either how many emoticons there are or how many people end the reply with a period. Step 2 make sure your reply looks like the model I give you Step 3 switch between what you look for EX: poster 1:counted periods Poster 2:counts emoticons Final step subtract for emoticons add for periods Full example: Poster 1: 25 emoticons Poster 2: 13 periods Poster 1: takes the # they find and add or subtract from the previous number so if they found 12 emoticons the next number would be 1 Good luck this maybe confusing at first. The starting number is 39, first person count periods
