We went with "MVP" because AAMOTGOPWADTCSLCTTOI was too hard to remember.

You also get awarded the MrExcel MVP for being particularly handsome. Greg got it 'cos he's helpful though...

Not that it helped me get my MVP moniker here, but the girls in the women's dormitory did award me the "best legs in the men's dorm" title three out of four years in college.

Hi, guys,
Greg, "expanding" the thread - as always :wink: - forgot to explain how you get "Board Regular".
For your information: you get into that group on your sixth post.
kind regards,
Erik

Well, as you can see, Mr. Van Geit got in based on helpfulness and not looks. And, as much as it pains me to drift on-topic for a moment, we used to have another title for after you made it to 100 posts. I can't recall what the heck it was, though... But now it's just "board regular" from posts 6 to 1,000; at which point you get a gold star by yer name.

Don't worry - brew yourself a cup of tea, take 2 aspirins and have a lie down - the feeling will pass soon enough...

Hmmm... from all the misdirection I am assuming that a "MrExcel MVP" is in reality a secret club that you have to gain access to through some secret handshake, sign, or... wait! Maybe its a bit of Excel code posted to this forum! Here goes!
Code:
If Intersect("MrExcel Message Board Forum","Handsome Excel God") = True then MrExcelBoardRank = "MrExcel MVP"
