So, I guess I should be thrilled that I came in third, narrowly beating out a guy who's never even been to moot and another guy who doesn't even exist?

bill, moot-ichlorians are not directly related to moot attendance.

So, what is the formulation?

Yeah, ummm, what are mootichloreans...?

Whatever they are, I'm thrilled to have some, so please don't interpret this question as ingratitude. And hey, 19,000 sounds like a lot. So thanks!

I think this is a good thing.

I guess there's really no reason for me to comment here since I already asked on Thinklings, but what the deuce is an "ichlorian", and how do you count them?

What prompted this nonsense?

sheesh. what prompts any "goofin' off" post? nothing really. didn't mean to confuse so many people. i thought there was a general knowledge of star wars amongst the thinklings. "mootichlorians" was coined in a casual conversation, so i thought i'd post the counts for the thinklings.

guess the post title shoulda been "you can START wondering!"

Well, I know what a midichlorian is. I don't remember hearing the word mootichlorian, but I could understand it showing up at moot.
But how this post came to be is still beyond me. :-) And how you calculated the counts, as well. I thought it was some kind of online midichlorian counter or something, but I didn't see a link.

"mootichlorian" came up in a conversation with thinkling fanboy, riley sheehan.

consider this post a "picture of a monkey"

made up the counts. obviously the hub gets the most (anakin-like) numbers, threw in the pipe thing for bird because palpatine has some midichlorian boosting crystal and then just threw the rest out there. the numbers are ballpark comparable to the list of the star wars peeps you can view if you google midichlorian counts.

Dude, I have been finally linked to the Thinklings. Bucketlist item number 1 crossed off.
