Other interesting numbers
Nice opers here, no one got kicked!
Strange, no op was given on #C++-general!
Wow, no op was taken on #C++-general!
PirocaGigante always lets us know what he/she's doing: 4 actions!
For example, like this:
     * PirocaGigante likes to pedal the metal of the optimizer and I am afraid too much pointer fiddling could conflict with it

Also, Alipha tells us what's up with 1 actions.
mort talks to him/herself a lot. He/She wrote over 5 lines in a row 4 times!
Another lonely one was yates, who managed to hit 1 times.
Nobody is foul-mouthed in #C++-general! Get out much?
