Isn't it a bit early for that?

Not here it ain't.

Thanks, this forum is quite enlightening

Just a bug in the system..

A selfie? So cute 

[Bob]

Were you starting to get hopeful?

[johnwilson9]

this post could go on for a long long time haha

[Bob]

It is possible.

[danny_pianist]

Isnt there a limit on how many replies a post can have? 9999 or something like that? 

[j_menz]

Isnt there a limit on how many replies a post can have? 9999 or something like that? 

We may well find out.

[Bob]

That's what I was wondering.  How soon until we get to 9,999?

[j_menz]

That's what I was wondering.  How soon until we get to 9,999?

8,839 posts and counting.

[Bob]

Hm?  It's only 1161 replies with this one.

We need a start and end of these new ones to measure from...

[Bob]

Say... January until May... four months.  About 20 pages.

1 month = 5 pages

[Bob]

50 post per page
x 5 pages
= 250 posts per month

[Bob]

Oh, I see.   

About 8,840 posts left.
(/50 post per page)
which is 176.8 pages.
(/5, pages per month)
Should take... About 35.36 months to hit 10,000?
(/12 month per year)
2.94666 years.     

About three years until we find out.  We'll have to buckle down and work harder.

[Bob]

I think we could go for hitting page 30 by July 1st.  That sounds realistic, while pushing it a bit.

So, uh... You guys get started with this project.  You've got a lot of posting to do.

[j_menz]

So, uh... You guys get started with this project.  You've got a lot of posting to do.

Now we have an end in sight, I'm as below until it approaches nigh.

[Bob]

You guys better get moving.  You still need to finish off this page before you even start the next six pages.

[Bob]

Come on, "you people."  It may be a holiday in the US, but that's no excuse for non-US countries.  The thread's not going to end itself.

[Bob]

Five pages per month... That's 1.2 pages per week.  50+10. 

You'll all need to create 60 posts per week on this thread to stay on track with the quota.  That's less than 10 post per day. 

There are a lot of people in China and India who would probably love a job like that.  I'm just saying.

[j_menz]

Given that my ultimate victory is inevitable, I don't see the rush.

[Bob]

There's still a quota.  Numbers can't be argued with.

[outin]

Given that my ultimate victory is inevitable, I don't see the rush.

[j_menz]

I can't actually see the picture.   

Yes, I'm counting my blessings. 

[outin]

I can't actually see the picture.   

[Bob]

Oi.

[outin]

Oi.

[Bob]

Just in case Nils gets wind of the plan and closes the thread...


Nils might notice if one thread starts skyrocketing for posts, esp. if the post quality goes down.


Looks like about three posts for today.  We still need seven more to stay on track.

[j_menz]

We still need seven more to stay on track.

Staying on track isn't a common virtue in these parts.

[Bob]

It's like a giant metronome, but for posts.

[j_menz]

It's like a giant metronome, but for posts.

I'd ask what on earth you meant, but I fear you'd tell me. 

[Bob]

Seven.  We just need three more.  Three more posts and we've met our quota for the day.  Who's got a post or two or three laying around?  Come on!  You sir!  You look like you're ready to post.  Step right up.  You might win the whole thread.  Imagine that.


10 posts per day.  That's the metronome tick.  *Bob feels rushed.*   

If I had split this into two posts and split my post above into three, we'd probably be done by now.

[j_menz]

You need a motivational poster.

[outin]

You need a motivational poster.

And a stamp?

[j_menz]

And a stamp?

I doubt 40 Kopecks will get a letter very far these days.

[schumaniac]

If I were you guys I would be practicing more instead of posting more to get 30 pages...

[Bob]

Oh. Darnit.  I'm not awake yet.

[schumaniac]

But so is making your posts super long and trailing off like this withouany punctuation and full of spelling errrors like this and without really finishing your sentence but using ellipses instead.....
