...we clean out our mailboxes at a certain time and, half an hour later, see how much spam we've gotten.
Just a thought.

You pick, but, yeah -- it can only be one account.
Okay, it's roughly 11:24. I say, whoever's in on this, clean out your spam folder at 11:30, then check back in at noon.
Pac time, of course.

I'm gonna go with my gmail account.

Sure thing

abcdefz
08-09-2006, 10:55 AM
Cool.
Worse comes to worse, we can always double-check the headers on incoming mail to be sure.
abcdefz
08-09-2006, 10:57 AM
Oh yeah -- do we go with all spam, or just the stuff that gets filtered as spam?
I'm thinking any spam that comes in.
jackrock
08-09-2006, 10:57 AM
/cleared.
So is it the one with the most spam wins? or least amount wins?
I say filtered.
abcdefz
08-09-2006, 10:58 AM
It's on. (y)

Most, definitely.
You say filtered, I say all, so forks can be the deciding vote.

There ya go.
So far: one. :(
It'd be interesting to see if our gmail spam matches up.

I should've gone with my work e-mail, which has had six so far.
Dang.
jackrock
08-09-2006, 11:17 AM
Man I have 10 minutes and .. zero :(
2 of mine are from friends, but they're the 'join me on bebo and slow the internet down with your shite' type of email.
Do they count?
abcdefz
08-09-2006, 11:19 AM
My vote would be no. Otherwise I could add all the feel-good bullshit slideshows fellow Christians forward to me. :D
But let the others weigh in.
abcdefz
08-09-2006, 11:19 AM
Damn. I'm still only at two.
I swear it seems like I get way more than this.
abcdefz
08-09-2006, 11:20 AM
Six minutes...
Well if i don't count bebo then i'm at 1 and you're winning. Just think, with the prize money you may never have to work again.
abcdefz
08-09-2006, 11:23 AM
Well, I'm just trying to stay focused, give 110%.
There's no "I" in "spam."
abcdefz
08-09-2006, 11:24 AM
Well if i don't count bebo then i'm at 1
The other guys should have weigh in on this; they might disagree.

That's it -- I've got two. The viagra one and a Cheesecake Factory one.
Stop the clock while we consult relevant 3rd parties!
jackrock
08-09-2006, 11:27 AM
No bebo, hi5 crap. Times up and I got zero.
abcdefz
08-09-2006, 11:42 AM
A tie? That's cool.
My side hurts. Gotta walk it off.
jackrock

abcdefz
08-09-2006, 11:51 AM
I could do a night race only in retrospect, checking headers. No internet at home.
Wow. This is pretty nerdrific.
jackrock
08-09-2006, 11:52 AM
Headers?
