...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.

Wow. ZERO.

One came in at 12:01, and another at 12:02. I guess spam was at lunch.

abcdefz

I'm gonna go with my gmail account.

jackrock

Sure thing

as will I

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.

This one is:

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 :(

Teh
08-09-2006, 11:17 AM
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...

Teh
08-09-2006, 11:21 AM
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.

08-09-2006, 11:27 AM
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?
