Blog Olympics - Round 4



New logo courtesy of Carrie of Cze-Johnson Fever

Welcome to Round 4 of the Blog Olympics.

A champion blogger is generous with links. Show me the post with the most out-links from your blog.


This recent post from my blog has 55 out-links.

Post the link from your blog that contains the post with the most out-links in the comment area of this post. Indicate how many outlinks it has. Posts made after this Olympic round opens do not count.

Use this format:

Trying to Catch Up: Blog Olympics - Round 3 Results 55 out-links

Tip: If you have a Blogger blog here is an easy way to create your link. Click on the permalink to the post you want to link (usually it is the date field at the bottom of your post), then go to your Blogger NavBar (top of your blog) and click "BlogThis!". In the little square that pops up (you may need to log in first) you will see the link to your post, make sure it is showing in HTML format. If it isn't then click inside the box where it says HTML. Now, copy the HTML link from the little BlogThis! box and paste it into my comments area. Voila - your link.

Please check the answer of the person who comments ahead of you. Leave me an email at blmiers2@yahoo.com if there is a problem.

The higher your number, the better chance you have at winning.

The top 10% of Olympic blogs (those with the posts with the most out-links) will win a gold medal.

The bottom 10% of Olympic blogs (those with the posts with the least out-links) will win a bronze medal.

All other Olympic blogs participating in this round will win a silver medal.

Your comment must be posted by 10:00 AM EST, Thursday, January 26, 2006.

Please use the blog that you used in the previous rounds. Good luck!

I tried to follow your instructions for making the link here--I'm not sure it worked. Guess we will see when I publish.

Anywhoooo...3 links.
Hmpf....just recently learned how to do this (like 5 days ago).

I love this Olympic Competition. I am already dreading the Closing Ceremony!!

Thanks for all your work!!

Three cheers for Barbara!!!

Chrixean - outlinks are when you put a link to someone else's blog or website in your post. They are the things that you can click on.
Here's a link: Trying to Catch Up

If this link were in your post, it would be an outlink.

Thanks, Barbara for explaining this round's instructions for me!

I saw the instruction for this new round AFTER i made my post, so my entry for this is very recent -- but I promise i wrote it hours before your post (since i didn't even understand what i was supposed to do earlier...)! It was just a coincidence that the most outlinks were really on this last post of mine :-)

Anyway, here's mine:

I didn't go all the way back and check my site - that was hard on my eyes. I hope I didn't overlook or forget a "linky" post. I don't think I did, tho. ;)

I think there should be two separate categories

One for Thursday Thirteen outlinks and one for non Thursday Thirteen

It doesnt seem fair to non thursday thirteeners

especially if you count the whole 13 blogroll....

just an observation

(I havent even thought about the fact that one of my 13 posts may have more than 26 but I am sticking with my regular post and the 26)

Blogger Running2Ks said...

I would agree if people just copy the whole blogroll, but when I did TT, I read and manually linked to each person I read and commented on. So those were all outlinks.

1/26/06, 11:34 AM

Blogger Running2Ks said...

Oh, and the reason why just inserting the blogroll shouldn't count is the blogroll fluctuates in size regularly. So, that's why only the manually typed in links should count.
