UPDATE topic SET locked = 1 WHERE topicID = 19169

I think it would result in a loss Graz.

More important is how are we going to collect the $5000 when he loses, and how do we divvy up the proceeds... According to Post Count?

I'll vote for the by-post-count method if rob offers to give me a cut ;)

You won't because you're an extremly delicate and clever man!

Is it a share per person or per post?

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.

What do I care? It costs me nothing. If we were ever really concerned, we could just delete the whole thread, and if you get to be a radical annoyance, your account can be locked. No worries.

At least you smiled when you said that a la Owen Wister

I believe the country name list used in Snitz needs an update. The country list in Snitz is or was derived from either the published UN country list or the ISO 3166 country list, apparently an older copy was used.
