Only 46 for me. Something to do with side projects and not buying every single version of singles.

I can't remember the running order of the last 3 albums. My brain died in 1992 and I can'tremember stuff like that anymore. I couldn't recall the running order of the last 3 gigs either although they would be broadly similar. 10 points going for moderators is a bit steep, never been asked and it has no relevance to obsessiveness. I don't actually play New Order every day either which is probably a good thing.

Though my wife would certainly have bet on a score of 55+. I wonder what her reaction will be when I tell her that I'm only an average fan... :confused2:

Why does moderating NOOL give you 5 points? :skeptic:

Got 48 overall.

I guess that's because I'm a keen NO record collector, I'm into the side projects as much as NO, I moderate a forum on NOOL and I once ran the Monaco site. On the other hand I missed out the WIM section because I don't generally visit that site. You should've put five pointers for anyone having had their own tribute band/covered a NO song, having been to 30 gigs or more, or whether they're a Salvation member ;) that would've made it much more reflective. I agree with Al getting 5 points for NOOL moderation is a bit much.

To be honest I dislike anything which attempts to elevate fans above others, er including this poll really :laugh: :shrug:

wow. 23. i wasn't expecting that. some of you fu(Ker$ are crazy i suppose. i can't imagine being much more of a fan than i already am. it would take up ALL of my time.

A mere 21, barely cutting it, lol. I love the side projects but I don't have much of there stuff, and I don't have any New Order singles from tech and up. I still considered them one hellava band though! :music:

Couldn't quite remember the Movement / Brotherhood tracklistings (the ex still has my CDs damn her!)

Nice idea BTW:thumb:

10 Points for own no-Website with forum. (Too many points for that, I think)/Fan for 26 Years (not enough points for that) Side projects weren't so good for me.

Nice Game and Idea.
