Ya it took about a week. I would mess around with it when I had time here and there. The hard part was narrowing the list to 100...

After that I put them in groups of 20's and then I ranked them within those groups.

The username came from my uncanny resemblance to the Plantmeister. Or at least back when I had 80's hair.
