Haven’t noticed plugger66 around since late last week.

I’m a bit concerned he may be devastated by recent covid developments

I died

 

[plugger66]

I hope he's okay, his old man was unwell. It's eerily quiet on here with out him.

I wasn’t unwell I’ve been painting. Worst job ever.

Still going, that's a marathon effort.

4 to 6 hours everyday for what will end up being 2 weeks.

Hi everybody. Just saying hi as I'm spending a little more time than usual on the St Kilda board (haven't posted until now). I have a family connection to the Saints and have found myself following them more and more closely. Really enjoying the ride at the moment.

Not sure what the general stance is re: opposition posters on this board, but hope you don't mind if I lurk a little and comment rarely.

Who’s your connection?

Nothing interesting or relevant to inside info etc. unfortunately - just a reason to be interested in St Kilda!

You’re welcome here but we might send you over the edge.

Always happy to have Saints - interested people on here.
We’re selling memberships for $50 at the moment - good time to get onboard

I guess it could only be better than that stuff Dick Smith was selling.

Is that at your IGA

I’m sure you know we could always do with some extra support.

Who’s your fave player atm?

I have missed you.

Love Hunter Clark mate. Big fan. And Dean Kent still has my heart - has he met expectations?

So, inner kid in me just had a wondrous time; it snowed here just after 1pm.

So I was informed a few years back that last time it snowed in Sunbury, I was 2. I'm now 35, so suffice to say, at first i thought it was rain, then hail as it started to look a bit heavier, then it stated coated things and piling up.

So, despite the fact that it was second lunch at work and there were only two of us handling national outbound during that 40min period, I dipped. IDC, was snow man, literally first time I can recall and as if it'll happen again since we're not in the zone for such things, hence the 30+ years between drinks.

Now I'm assuming wind was involved, since it was dropping at like, 45 degrees and my temp said it was borderline 3 degrees, but man, now I know what kids like about such things. Blew my goddamn mind that it was actually snowing.

Was even better since not 10mins ago, my younger sister who works in a diff suburb and can still go to work location, got nothing. SUCKED IN.

I have missed you.

Depends who you ask on Kent, there's still a few lamenting his inclusion as a GOP, but FWIW I don't mind him, seems to fumble a bit more than I'd like but obviously has skill and seems to be enjoying himself.

Sorry bloke, I'm no help, can barely turn these things on.

I'm not bad, I have to be to use it for work. Just trying to find a way to randomise a string of numbers that equal a set total number. For instance I want a list of 21 random numbers between 35-45 that equal 800.

Eh, not sure why I am explaining it to you anyway

These dogs are trained to sniff out the coronavirus. Most have a 100% success rate

We’re working with professional trainers in South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales to train dogs to sniff out COVID-19. They could be highly valuable in managing the spread of infection.

What ever happened to Choomah?

And Mikka, a few of our legendary posters have dropped off. I thought the wins would bring a few back. I wish Mowman and Kegs would come back too.

I had a PM with Mikka and VDS in March but have heard nothing since. Mowman was never a favourite of mine, but that's OK, KoL and Sir Skid as well.
Nice to see barrels about on the game day threads.

i reckon f they came back they would notice a different tone to the posting. The petty bikkering has largely gone and it is much more civil

I'd use random number generators multiplied by 35 and 45 and made integer, for the first 10. then check to see how on target they are , and tweak the multiplier accordingly for the next 10, then subtract the total from 800 for the last one.
Probably need to fine tune it a fair bit, fair bit of work in that method

Yeah ended up just using a random number generator between 35-45 and tweaked it a bit once I had the list so it equalled 800.

Only way I knew how to do it as well, randbetween to random gen between amounts, NFI how to get to total 800 with using the choose function and decided I was no help whatsoever to post anything.

Brute forcing FTW.

Yeah I think I'd need to setup a macro or something, but I can't be arsed with doing that. I got what I was after anyway
