The Favored Ones

The funniest people on Twitter, as determined by the Favrd leaderboard.  Stars tabulated and averages calculated.  In the past 3 months, how many times have you made the leaderboard?

Wow. I’ve had a “To Do” list to do something like this for awhile, and someone else did it!

Three cheers for procrastination!

Also: is it clear that Sween, Badbanana, and Adam Isascon are playing in the big leagues.

I don’t even appear in Honorable Mentions? Really? Clearly I have jumped the shark, Twitter-wise. Ah, well.

I’m not complaining, mind you. I know that I don’t tweet prolifically, and quantity pretty much is a necessary variable in the Favrd formula, but I know I’ve been on the leaderboard at least three times in the past 90 days. I’ve had this, this, and this in less than the last month alone.

Either way, it seems I need to either start reading Humor for Dummies, or learn better math.

The list has been updated to include screen names containing underscores (my bad).  You’ve made the leaderboard 25 times in the past 3 months, Tony.

  9. doublejack answered: What inthefade said. (Mostly — I still strive, but I think only like 4 of my followers are signed up with favrd, or are star-phobic…)

  14. thefount answered: Forget the leaderboard, I’ve only gotten the requisite 3 stars twice. My followers need to step up their game. (Yes, it’s their fault.)
  15. ivegotzooms answered: I’ll put you and everyone else I adore on my leaderboard. I just don’t get around to publishing.
