Countdown to 3 million posts

  • Thread starter Greg Bernhardt
  • Start date
In summary, people are trying to reach 3 million posts before a certain date. There are a few bumps in the road, but if everyone posts, we could make it.

I have an idea. No one post anything for the rest of the day.

Why? So we can delay this to Saturday.
If we try to delay it, the Europeans will start posting again when they wake up, and we're asleep. They'll have all the fun and we'll miss out.

[Edit: anyone else notice that sometimes post counts and such take a while to update?]

right, it's not instant, saves the database a bit

You seem to assume that I sleep on Friday nights. I don't know where you get this assumption.

Makes sense.

Hmm. Should I stay at work, where I don't want to be, to witness the big post first hand? Or go home and catch the re-run?

Witness it first hand, of course.

What!? There's no such thing as reruns!

Someone should go kick the people who aren't here and get them to come. We're having so much fun.
 
  • #117
34 to go!
 
  • #118
Wouldn't it be ironic if the 3 millionth post was "0 to go!"?
 
  • #121
Can this be the 3 millionth post?

I know just what you mean, I want to go home now!

I did the smart thing and ate a whole pizza earlier.

The Packers are totally going to win the Super Bowl next year. I guarantee it.
