Interestingly, as Nat posted that, she seems to have graduated to "Broke at Australs"...

OK, it starts now, and ends... next Friday. Competition - make new rankings for the forum. The current rankings fit as follows.
Fresher
Going to Easters
Watched Regressive
Passed Stage 1 Australs
Broke at Australs
Slept with a DCA
Broke at Worlds
Adjudicated Grand Final of Worlds
Coached Monash 1
I knew Martin Sorensen
plus 5 other slots I hadn't named yet
So there are 15 slots to be filled, entries may be filed on this thread or to my email. Sole judge of these will be me. I reserve the right to enter my own competition.
Have fun with this.

im going to say that the rankings proposed by julian are crap.
i dont have anything better, but if its choosing between his suggestions and what we have already (which, even though julian came up with them, are good), i vote for the status quo.
that and the fact his rankings dont seem to have much logical progression to them.

Fi and Nat's list is excellent. i knew this would bring out the best in people.
Heres my crack at a general list. Writing this made me think it might also be fun to come up with specific lists for individuals - reflecting our expectations for their progression through MAD... i'll have a go at one later.
Gone to a few meetings – get confused between Savi and Rashi
Did Freashers, didn’t win, but still think I’m better than most 1st/2nd years
Listened to Amit talk about someone called Kim Little, confused, thought he was gay
Been to Easters, vomited a lot. Damn crocodile game
Joined the Exec – motivated to improve the club
Read an old Time in a waiting room, am now better than Jake.
Hate the DAV, will work to see the leadership overthrown.
Been to Australs, didn’t break, had a long conversation with Roland, didn’t understand a word of it – he’s so alternative and cool.
Met Kim Little, major crush on her. Need to learn a lot more about philosophy
Been on the Exec a few years, not popular enough to get anything done.
Got hired by the DAV to work in the Office, any criticsm of the DAV is now a criticism of me.
Broke at Australs, bled from the head during finals, still don’t understand anything Roland is talking about
Now popular enough to become President at next AGM, will finally get things done.
Elected President, everyone hates me, can’t get anything done.
Debated at Worlds, didn’t break, think English debaters are cool
Friends with Kim, over the crush, but wouldn’t say no.
Broke at Worlds, realise most of the English are tools.
Won Australs, can’t wait to get on the Asia Tour gravy train
Dating a much younger debater, bore them with stories about the old days when debating was good
Graduated– have heaps of ideas for improving MAD, but not a member so can’t get anything done.
Elected Life Member – secretary forgets to mail me Silvertongue.

lol i like the submissions...
im currently in the process of working out how to fit in a ranking that entails locking car keys in the car, whilst the engine is still on...
what about "locked car keys in car, whilst engine is still running"

tim's list is ok... but it really doesn't have enough references to kim in it for my liking.

I think I've brought this up once before, but I had better not be the only person getting freaked out by the ads on this messageboard.
Has anyone been inspired to 'Arrange their own marriage' via the internet, through JeevanSathi.com?
