Which of these people/Message-IDs are easier to score, Gisse:
" Eric_Gisse news:1184019482.332942.82840@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Jeff☠Relf news:Jeff_Relf_2007_Jul_9__8_39_AC@xxxxxxxxx

Scoring on " gemini.csx.cam.ac.uk " might work for Ben_Rudiak,
scoring on " Jeff_Relf " has worked for years.

My message ID tells you my name, ISP and date, e.g.:
" July 9‾th, at 8:39:02 a.m., Seattle time ".

The " A " in " 8_39_AC " in my Message-ID indicates a.m.
and the " C " is 2 ( seconds ) base62 ( A-Z , a-z , 0-9 ).

X.EXE, my hand-rolled newsreader,
sorts " players " ( i.e. posters ) by how " rich " they are.

They ( and others in the immediate subthread, weighted by level )
get richer when I reply to them.

In " In Box " mode, I only see players with " UnRead " posts.
One button markes a post as read and the next unread pops up.
Each post begins with the subthread, so I never lose sight of it.

In the spirit of Google's PageRank...

A player is Rich if he got a lot of replies --> per post <--
from players who ( recursively ) got a lot of replies per post.
Multiple cross-posts count as multiple posts.

So a player who posts one decent post ( and nothing more )
beats a player with 50 not-so-decent posts, on average.
A maximum of 50 ( most recent ) posts per player are retained.

In InBox mode...
The " Virtual_Cash " that I spend ( i.e. the replies I make )
is always the highest, making the players I've talked to the Richest.

" www.Cotse.NET/users/jeffrelf/Phy_R.TXT "
is an example of the Richest players in my ( Relf's ) InBox mode.
