Indeed, the posing rate seems to have gone into idle

Have been confined to frustratingly slow dial up connection this past week - current connection speed 21 kbps :evil: so minimal contribution from me.

Looking at the post count I am not that optimistic of my chances now.

There was a time a few days back when I thought that the 50,000th would come up before my guess. Now I can't see it happening till sometime after my guess has expired.

It is down to 2 people with realistic chance.

My guess won't be far off but no effectively no hope after the sabotage.

The excitement is killing me:shock: ....but actually I'm more excited about my first flight in SQ F:
Which SQ flight to upgrade from J -> F?

Possibly! Can't give too much away fearing it may cause a posting frenzy.

Bring the frenzy on, I say.

Post #2 and the thread title was wrong

 

[JohnK]

Post #2 and the thread title was wrong

It was only a suggestion and that was 6 weeks ago!

Can't change thread title once the thread has been posted.

PS BTW, What is the Grand Prize ?

There is a mystery prize on offer.

Will I be disqualified if I make 30-50 posts at the last minute?

Spamming is encouraged as long as the reason is to enhance you own chances of winning and not to sabotage the chances of someone else winning.

All was revealed back at post #57!

Spamming is encouraged as long as the reason is to enhance you own chances of winning and not to sabotage the chances of someone else winning.

Of course, it would take some incredible manipulation on JohnK's part in order to win.

I would assume mods/supermods/admins can - I do it all the time on other forums I belong to.

Please keep posting away...

Buckley's or none just about sum up my chances of winning.

Sounds like you are in the same boat as me now.

Sometimes not! I posted a thread recently and made a mistake in the thread title and tried to change it straight away. I couldn't change it and Admin tried changing it as well without success.

Come on guys post away!!!!

I could wish for QF to announce some enhancements today, which would get people posting. But then I know to be careful about what I wish for
