[johnc4510]

You earn 1 bean for every post, except in the cafe or jail, I think. Here is the way the bean status changes:
Beans Position
1-2 Ubuntu Green Beans
3-15 First Cup Of Ubuntu
15-99 5 Cups Of Ubuntu
100-249 A Carafe Of Ubuntu
250-400 Way too much Ubuntu
400-550 Quad Shot Of Ubuntu
500-700 Dipped In Ubuntu
700-800 Has an Ubuntu Drip
800-1000 100% Pure Ubuntu
1000-5000 Fresh Brewed Ubuntu
5000+ Ubuntu Mocha Milkshakes (Aysiu & azz appear to be the only holders of this)

A fun "ranking" based on your posts in tech support forums and some radomization (made up a new word!!)
You never know what you might get next ;) Thats the fun of it

[youthforlinux]

oh ok thanks it just seemed weird to me thats all

[macdo]

Spilling the beans means you're close to the next stage; I think that for some stages, you ask people to "Just give me those beans!"

Please note that while the list of bean titles as given by johnc4510, above, is undoubtedly correct, the titles are known to change randomly - and there is no officially approved list. Perhaps that should go into the wiki....

My personal theory is that the forum masters are hell-bent on driving as many of us to caffeine-fuelled insanity as possible :-)

[yourearthlymaster]

hi, newbie here. I was wondering the same thing, thanks for the posts. saved me some time...

[S{yndrom}e]

glad you get that figured out.... :P

[Iowan]

Spilling the beans means you're close to the next stage; I think that for some stages, you ask people to "Just give me those beans!"
Speaking of which - it seems like 90-100 is "Just Give Me the Beans".

And it just seems like I just crossed into "Woah! These Aren't Roasted!"

[ubuntuman001]

i guess im "dipped in ubuntu", though i cant really tell! :D

[therunnyman]

Yeah, I got the "Just Give Me the Beans" thing at...what's this...93 posts?

runny

[youthforlinux]

i'm just happy im okay and my beans are okay

So why does it say just give me the beans now!!!!

[ubuntuman001]

So why does it say just give me the beans now!!!!
well that list is very general, and doesn't go into specifics. btw, "just give me the beans" happens when you have around 90-100 beans

[Lord Illidan]

How does it feel being a carafe?

[youthforlinux]

good im thouroughly satisfied

[TwistesdTexan]

I was wondering about the beans also. I did find the list of the advancements with the number of beans interesting. But just who is the magical bean counter? And why can't you see the number of beans you have personaly without posting?

[damianubuntu]

Does anyone do tea by the way? ;-)

[Pavilion]

Great information.

Thank you

Thank you

[Robertjm]

And where to the coffee cups come into play?

[matthew]

Click the FAQ link in my sig...there's info in that page.

EDIT: Oh, and the specific details posted above are no longer valid as things get changed around from time to time.

[meng]

Stop spilling your beans, I think some churches consider that sinful.

[jvc26]

I got spilt the beans at 14, then 5 cups of ubuntu from there... til 90 maybe... or maybe 100? depending on when the random one at the beginning of a new change occurs. I was wondering how the system worked myself... cheers for getting an answer guys!

[a3quit4s]

[PriceChild]

[nikoPSK]

[LaRoza]

Don't pay attention to the beans, they don't mean anything.

[crav]

Don't pay attention to the beans, they don't mean anything.

This is the real point of this thread.

[LaRoza]

This is the real point of this thread.

Actually, I just wanted another bean (j/k)

I don't notice how many beens I have, until someone points it out (on this end or on the forum)

[nikoPSK]

you have 2802! (jk, the beans are just for fun, I think it's better than plain ol posts;))

[LaRoza]

you have 2802! (jk, the beans are just for fun, I think it's better than plain ol posts;))

I have 2805, I think it is cool.

Hey y'all,
Where is the teabag conversion table. I don't do coffee! There. I've come out of the closet. I'm so relieved :) :)

There is a tea thread in the Cafe. I never drank coffee myself, but love tea :-)

[loell]

no matter the how the forum officially states that beans is just for enjoyment , still no one can eradicate the misconception that.

( beans = ubuntu knowledge/ expireince) :lolflag:

In that case, I am "smarter" than you and my post is more important, therefore, my statement (Beans don't mean anything) is true, which means I am not "smarter" than you, and your post has just as much credence as mine, which means beans do matter thefore I am "smarter"...

Segmentation Fault....Core Dumped

the misconception is still there. and ever growing :p

Interestingly, my participation in this thread (and yours) results in beans that add to our credibility among the less informed.

Luckily, Linux caught it, and no data was corrupted. If I were using Windows, I would have to reinstall.

heheh, and I wouldn't be surprised if a mod will transfer this thread to the cafe , and cut short our little enjoyment :)

[nikoPSK]

of beans. (I used to eat the beans when I was a kid, my dad would ask me to grind the coffee and I'd chuck a bean or two in my mouth... XD)

[nikoPSK]

john c and loell:

why is your name green?

[LaRoza]

There is a thread in the Cafe about beans, and I thought it was moved...

Seriously, anyone reading this who thinks beans matter, realize that this discussion resulted in beans for all participants, so look at the quality of advice and previous posts before judging a poster.

My previous posts will probably show I am knowledgeable about some things but am by no means an expert.

[loell]

john c and loell:

because i'm one of the loco forum moderator for team Philippines :)

you can be a loco moderator too in your country's loco team forum just contact them.

lol, how? i'm still a bit of a newb, only been here two months (not a newb with linux though been experimenting with different distros for 4 years.)

Thanks laroza:D

No problem! Always nice to assist a fellow....person, I am a Pennsylvanian.

[nikoPSK]

Any way i can do english and french for the canadian team?

[randydueck@mts.net]

My beans are spilt too. I thought it was because I received an "infraction" for bad language. I wasn't too happy that day, so I vented about Ubuntu...
but phew, now I know I'm not banned from Ubuntu, lol.

[randydueck@mts.net]

hmmm...so at which post are my beans not spilled?...i'm at 14 now

[hhhhhx]

hmmm...so at which post are my beans not spilled?...i'm at 14 now
spilt beens means you are about to enter the next level or something like that, i think

[LaRoza]

See the sticky for an explanation on what the beans and titles mean.

[RedSquirrel]

hmmm...so at which post are my beans not spilled?...i'm at 14 now
If memory serves, that "Spilled the Beans" title doesn't last very long (unless the admins changed it). Just keep posting and see what happens. Maybe even 15 beans will change to the next title...

[robertchahine]

there's taurus who has more than 20000beans !!!!

[bonkadventure2]

I like this fun bean thing. It makes the forums more enjoyable.:)

[telovin]

even I was worried why I spilled my beans and when I saw this thread I felt relieved!:)

[lisati]

It could be worse: your beans could be burnt (usually only happens for banned accounts).

Ssh don't let the mods think you're into necrophilia for reviving this thread!

[Giant Speck]

Zombie thread!!!!

I always figured it meant that one was
a. incredibly verbose
b. incredibly prone to running into Linux problems thus
c. Always running for help because he-she-it--indeterminately sexless alien being screws up computers on a regular basis.
Lives on the internet because one has no other life.
D. all of the above.

[TheProphetJonah]

Of course I could be wrong. Sometimes I actually AM wrong.

Besides, conceit is a fault, and i don't have any.

Everybody knows that. Because I tell them.

Often.

Two more beans for me, please...

Too late.

(And thanks to Mrs Lisati for saving the day yesterday by buying a new kettle after our last one packed a sad. Boiling water in a pot to make coffee is a pain in the "you know where")

[Pough913]

WOW this post just solved my question too. Thanks!
