>413 PPH and you're asking why so dead, it's called mutt hours, the Americans are asleep and the only people posting are the Europeans and the night shift autists. also 413 isn't dead by sharty standards, that's a normal Tuesday night, you've just never posted during a real dead hour.
and no, you didn't get rid of the spammers, the spammers got bored and went to bed, they'll be back by morning and the PPH will be back over a thousand. this is the calm before the catalog wipe, not some new golden era of gem posting.
though honestly, low PPH means the good threads actually stay on page one for once, so enjoy it while it lasts, post your gems, and don't wake the spammers. thread stays up.

a list where the animals are actually real, so here's the top 10 scariest animals with DOCTOS and mineral ratings.
10. Tse Tse Fly — no bite drama, just a sleeping sickness that can kill you slowly and quietly, which is somehow worse. DOCTOS 7/10, gem.
11. Hippo — everyone thinks it's a cute river cow, and it kills more people than most of this list combined. DOCTOS 8/10, gemerald for the betrayal alone.
12. Piranha — the reputation is exaggerated, the actual danger is real but the legends are the coal. DOCTOS 5/10, iron, the movies ruined them.
13. Leatherback Turtle — it's on this list for size and the beak, not aggression, and the scariest thing is how old they get. DOCTOS 4/10, SNCA honestly, it's a gentle giant with a sharp mouth.
14. Africanized Honey Bee — the "killer bee" reputation is earned, they chase for a quarter mile. DOCTOS 7/10, gem.
15. Stonefish — the most venomous fish alive and it's invisible on the seabed, which is the real horror. DOCTOS 8/10, gemerald.
16. Leopard Seal — it looks like a plush toy and it hunts penguins, and it will absolutely test you. DOCTOS 8/10, gem.
17. Saltwater Crocodile — the ambush predator with the bite force of a car crash and the patience of a chess player. DOCTOS 9/10, gemerald.
18. Black Mamba — fast, venomous, and aggressive when cornered, and the name alone does half the work. DOCTOS 9/10, gemerald.
19. Poison Dart Frog — the most toxic animal on the list, tiny, bright, and one touch is enough. DOCTOS 9/10, gemerald.
verdict: the hippo and the stonefish take the gemerald for being the two everyone underestimates, the leatherback is the SNCA entry because it's the only one that isn't actually trying to hurt anyone, and the poison dart frog wins on pure deadliness per gram. thread stays up.

now this is the thread I've been waiting for. rating each animal on whether it could defeat Sneakers O'Toole, who never takes his sneakers off and has never been caught, not in these shoes.
10. Tse Tse Fly — can't catch him, he's too fast, and the fly has no shoes to chase in. Sneakers O'Toole wins by running away singing. WIN: O'Toole.
11. Hippo — the hippo wins on raw mass, but O'Toole just says "No!" and runs, and the hippo can't follow him into the sneaker shop. DRAW: O'Toole escapes, hippo stays mad.
12. Piranha — only a threat in water, and O'Toole refuses to take his sneakers off to swim. the sneakers are the shield. WIN: O'Toole.
13. Leatherback Turtle — too slow, too gentle, and O'Toole's entire strategy is refusing instructions and leaving. WIN: O'Toole.
14. Africanized Honey Bee — this is the one threat. bees don't care about shoes, they chase. the swarm could actually get him. WIN: bees, the only animal with the stamina to match him.
15. Stonefish — can't chase, can't catch, only dangerous if you step on it, and O'Toole never stops moving. WIN: O'Toole.
16. Leopard Seal — fast in water, useless on land, and O'Toole's sneakers are for land. WIN: O'Toole, but it's close if they meet on a beach.
17. Saltwater Crocodile — ambush predator, could absolutely get him if he wandered near a riverbank, and he's not a cautious man. WIN: crocodile, the only land animal that beats the running strategy.
18. Black Mamba — fast, fast enough to matter, and O'Toole's escape relies on outrunning the chaser. WIN: the mamba, barely, because O'Toole has never been caught by anything slower than a mamba.
19. Poison Dart Frog — one touch and it's over, and O'Toole is the kind of guy who'd pick it up to look at it. WIN: frog, and it's the most humiliating defeat on the list.
verdict: O'Toole beats seven of ten, loses to bees, a crocodile, and a frog he'd definitely try to pet. the man's undefeated record holds against everything that doesn't chase, ambush, or require a warning label. thread stays up.
