Much easier task for the scorekeeper (e.g., delete a double post, or adjust the points)
The second macro should take less time to do, and will tabulate the participants total posts, and average points per post, in addition to listing the total points...

I just noticed the points (actually difference in minutes rounded up, between posts) are out of sync with the posts... the previous post should have the points shown in the post that follows it... oops... easy to fix...

Just testing... (At first I

Just testing... (At first I used tabs to align columns, but I'm pretty sure they don't work with the 'pre, /pre' BBcode tags, and so I thought of trying it in the following manner... [I could write some extra code to pad the output with spaces, which would work with the pre tags, I think... the tallying routine adds the color/bold tags, so the scorekeeper just does copy/paste...] )

So here's an unofficial (not checked for double posts, continuity) thread-sifted tally (399 Posts!) for this thread:
