So I need to slow down a bit. And I encourage you all to do the same.

QF81 QF82 is no longer so posts will be less

Don't be silly. Now to find all your recent posts to invite discussion... :mrgreen:

 

[CaviAck]

I just checked and I'm given 743,591 as the total post count... Unless I'm doing something wrong that's 6909 posts in ~80mins

Hmm, I wonder what might happen if the rumour that EK is about to buy BA gets out of the bag

 

[JessicaTam]

You need to click on Discussion Board and look at those figures. The home page figure includes playground posts (I think).

We reach 750,000 tonight. Maybe 1,000,000 even

Ah ok, just confused as the link Mwenenzie gave linked me back to the home page.

You called?

Time to slow down my post rate which should be good for 20-30 posts per day....

And slowed down again.

Need some controversy....

Currently 710,300 posts... so that's 39,700 posts to go.
At ~668.5 posts a day average right now, that's 59 and a bit days from now... so Sunday the 5th May.
Looks like I've shaved 4 days off the original calculation.

This non entry will be close

 

[samh004]

This non entry will be close

LOL you can guilt me all you like, that was never intended to be an entry, I'm happy with the date I eventually put forward

 

[whatmeworry]

I am theoretically still in it but I don't think my predilection will hold up.

Seems the posting average has been holding up since the contest was announced.

Your predilection will hold up as long as you believe. As for your prediction? Well who knows...
