I'm tempted to do Equanimity next.

Go for it!  This is starting to get fun now :)

Categories based on the total number of points are defined, where QPer = quality poster:

Exceptional QPer                  90-100pts
V.high QPer                          80-89pts
High QPer                             70-79pts
Upper Medium QPer              55-69pts
Lower Medium QPer              40-54pts 
Low QPer                              30-39pts
Extra Low QPer                     20-29pts                               
Shit QPer                               10-19pts                                 

Analysis of Equanimity's last 50 posts, excluding those made in (or transferred to) B&M, HB and NIMF:

Exceptional QPs               : 0
V.high QPs                       : 0
High QPs                          : 1
Upper Medium QPs           : 13
Lower Medium QPs           : 27
Low QPs                           : 8
Extra Low QPs                  : 1                             
Shit QPs                            : 0

Calculating the number of posts by their respective weightings and multiplying by 2 to give a score out of 100 gives:

Exceptional QPs              1pts         x 0 = 0pts
V.high QPs                       0.875pts x 0 = 0pts
High QPs                          0.75pts   x 1 = 0.75pts
Upper Medium QPs           0.625pts x 13 = 8.125pts
Lower Medium QPs           0.5pts     x 27 = 13.5pts
Low QPs                           0.375pts x 8 = 3pts
Extra Low QPs                  0.25pts   x 1 = 0.25pts                     
Shit QPs                            0.0pts     x 0 = 0pts

Total (x2)                         : 51.25

Therefore the Slave Equation suggests that overall you are a poster in the Lower Medium quality category. As you can see you're in fact almost perfectly average. Do not take that as an insult.  Your score has been somewhat influenced by the number of simple answer-question responses you have to deal with as a mod. Even so, both you and Obbe would still roughly occupy the same region; average to slightly above average.

This is to be expected. The system is weighted towards the average. Given the general nature of the conversations, you'd have to try quite hard to be classed as a very good poster, or a very bad one, if you don't post a great deal outside SG (i.e. post predominantly in the specialist forums). People like Rust, Lifejunkie and a small handful of ex-Totse and Zoklet mods, would score highly in this system. Unfortunately their calibre of posts are largely non-existent at this point in time.

I've run out of time to post anymore this evening, so detailing the way I grade posts and responses to other posts (including yours Risir) will have to wait 'till tomorrow.

The scores so far:

Obbe:          51.7
Equanimity: 51.25
RisiR:           37

So much autism.

Sorry dude, but... This. This shit is probably one of the most autistic things I've ever seen. And yes, I'm counting the fucking Rain Man.

A very interesting analysis on post quality beast.
If it's not too much can you also try to quantify me too?

I would also like to be judged in order to satiate my own petty sense of self worth.

Oh, wait.. no, I don't. My bad.
