Ah ok, right there on the main page. Thanks!

I believe it will be a very long time before we reach 3 billion posts.

Wait... 3 million... nevermind

 

[Drakkith]

I'm going to start a new thread. Countdown to 3 million and ONE posts. One can never trust that many zero's in a row...

 

[jhae2.718]

I prefer the countdown to 1011011100011011000000 posts.

Sir Arthur Eddington thinks we should count to 15,747,724,136,275,002,577,605,653,961,181,555,468,044,717,914,527,116,709,366,231,425,076,185,631,031,296 posts.

Wait, we should count to Graham's Number.

Can we make 2995000 in the next 25 minutes tonight? or the next 2 hrs and 25 min?

If you mean, while it's still Gregs birthday, don't forget daylight saving that started Sunday.

Judging from the Chuck Norris facts thread some decided to speed the process up.

Oh noes! Let's not let the 3,000,000^th post be a Chuck Norris fact...!

 

[Borek]

Another 48 hours, 2,995,103 - that means 2000 per day. We will be there on Friday.

Wow! That was only two years ago, huh?

1,000,000 posts in two years. We're a busy place!

 

[Femme_physics]

What was the 1 millionth post, I wonder?

 

[FtlIsAwesome]

What about the 1,000,000th post?

EDIT: Ah, beat me to it.

 

[Femme_physics]

By 11 minutes... *chuckles*

 

[Lisa!]

Any predictions? I'm guessing we reach it 3/15! My birthday!

Wish it was a bet...

 

[Femme_physics]

I'm guessing we reach it 18/3 - my birthday! :D

I'm sure glad it wasn't my post. Come to think of it; when it get really close to 3 million, I might hold off on posting. It would be my luck to be the one posting it and it would have several spelling and grammatical errors. Or worse.

If that happened to me, I would pull a George Lucas and change it and insist it was always that way.

 

[micromass]

4000 posts to go!

 

[Astronuc]

1930 posts to go when I started this post, then 1925 when I submitted it!

It will definitely happen tomorrow.

 

[jhae2.718]

Getting close...

 

[rhody]

Ready...

 

[rhody]

Set...

 

[Drakkith]

Seven.

 

[rhody]

Go...

Rhody...

P.S. Let the machine gun posts fly, only to be deleted by Evo after...

 

[FtlIsAwesome]

We should give the 3 millionth poster a Gold membership. Whadaya say?

 

[jhae2.718]

Anyone want to write a script that takes users' post per day count, times of posting, and the data on time and number of posts until 3e6 to predict who will be the 3e6-th poster?
