So heres the deal, on the creation of the T-Cell Alpha i was looking forward to learning from the uninterupted (by newbs like me) discussion of lifters who have been in the game for a while and have progressed, knowing what has worked for them.
However, the cell has digressed into a forum which appears to cover every topic other than training related ones. To me there also appears to be a vague power struggle going on, whith people trying to prove that they are the most ‘elite’ when infact the most elite members do not get involved in such ridiculous debates.
Anyway, this led me onto think is there any viable way in which i can help get this T-Cell back on track? baring in mind i am not even a member i have read some of the deserved members thoughts on what needs to be done.
And so i have decided to work out a T-Cell members list and then if people are interested i was going to work out how long it would take for the T-Cell to be returned to just the foundation members using the tribunalling method, (assuming 67% cooperance of the cell.
The only problem i see is those who do not deserve to be in the cell may vote to keep eachother in as they know they may not be reinvited, unfortunately this number may be more than 67%) with the intent that this may be quicker than waiting for the MODs who are obviously currently too busy to act on what t cell members have caused themselves.
So although the tribunalling method will result in the forum being very little but tribunals for a while, the way i see it is taking a few steps back to start moving forward, perhaps it is necessary?
Seeing as i have gone on for a while now i am going to put in the member list that i am working out. This is a list of all members that have posted in the cell, it is in progress and i hope to finish it this week. The list only involve members who have made a post and so although extensive this may not even be everyone (lurkers).
Hopefully using this list we can see how out of control things have got and maybe start the tribunalling process by cutting out what i am going to call the cancer of the t cell (those who have no place in the cell). There may be a small degree of human error in this list however i think it will be minimal, as i have been very precise. So without further ado here is this list so far:

Considering i rarely post, why would i want in?
Anyway, this thread is not about me. I would appreciate if people could stop trying to be funny or whatever your trying to be and just take the thread for what it is.

That must have taken a lot of time to put together. I am sure it will be useful…but damn.

I see you noticed, as I did, that the first female isn’t listed until number 21. I agree with you that this can be a useful tool for gauging the degree of gender inequality in T-Nation as a whole.

Yeah, and I didn’t show up until number 11, even though I’m an original member.
I hope we’re not going to be seeing an episode of American Justice about this guy, but this is pretty impressive.
A few observations.
It sure does psychologically seem like there are a whole lot more members than this, but I can’t think of anybody offhand that isn’t there and I’m inclined to think he didn’t miss very many though there’s no way to really know right now. Weird.
Assuming it isn’t too many more than this then it’s a very small fraction of the overall T-Nation membership.
Common mistake so don’t take me as nit picking, but my handle is T I R I B U L U S, 4 syllables, not tribulus like the supplement.
