It was decided that the presentation should wait until you had recovered from your weekend, the thought being that you'd be less likely to puke on it.

That and the fact that you're still only at 999. A lot could happen between now and then.

No... to the Hundred Posters' Waiting Room. It would seem a bit odd for a 999-poster to be given a key to the Thousand-Posters' Lounge. :) In the past, the Hundred Posters' Waiting Room wasn't kept locked, but I've heard that the moderators had a meeting, and after an all night session, and drinking 4 gallons of Dr. Pig (Piggly Wiggly's version of Dr. Pepper), some, shall we say, unusual policy changes were made.

Smoking jacket indeed...

I thought you had to have something like 3000 to get the jacket nowadays...

That's due to inflation. Forecasters are split as to whether there's a posting bubble which will eventually burst, resulting in 1000-post smoking jackets again, or a sustainable posting increase which will eventually drive the low-count poster out of the smoking jacket market altogether.

And I just realized that I blew by 4000 posts without anyone (including myself) noticing.
