    I think it's around 250, but the next one up (stalwart) isn't much better.

    Does anyone else wonder what sort of school experience Martin had? I'm getting a few hints:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I'm thinking school for gifted children run by stout, robust nuns :rotfl:

    No, Stalwart isn't any better but they may be changed by then.

    You should post again fiveyearplan, you could be on the verge of becoming a stalwart! :D

    Edit: boundary must've changed - you're on 150 now and it's still saying 'convert'

    What IS a stalwart exactly??

    One of these...

    "Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)
    "We were born and raised in a summer haze." Adele 'Someone like you.'
    "Blowing your mind, 'cause you know what you'll find, when you're looking for things in the sky."     OMD 'Julia's Song'

    Well, if I had to choose, I'd be a "money saving werewolf". Then maybe after that "an inveterate gas-bag"...

    I can't be that bothered because not only will I have no idea what I am until I post, I have no idea what I was before either. I do think the names ought to be money-related though...

    Dollar Scholar
    Raving at the savings
    Sound as a pound
    Stashing the cash
    Astute with the loot

    etc

    I've been so not bothered by/unaware of what name I've been called that I don't even know how many levels there are, but yes, money-related names.
    Eek! Someone's stolen my signature! :eek:
