How Will the 2,000,000th Post Impact Our Community?

[MathematicalPhysicist]

My guess of when we hit 2,000,000: April 11, 1900 GMT.

April 11, 19-59-99 GMT, and not a second earlier or later.

You can view the current post count by looking in the statistics box on the right hand side of the front page.

I know, I'm kidding, like a child in a car repeating "Are we there yet?"

 

[Greg Bernhardt]

Looks like it will be monday!

 

[Astronuc]

Posts: 1,999,763 - we're close!

37 more legitimate posts to go.

By noon CST?

Update: Maybe in the next 5 minutes.

 

[Ivan Seeking]

How many?

 

[turbo]

Darn that subtraction! "I must have been sick that day."

 

[Kurdt]

Astro needs to brush up on his arithmetic.

 

[Ivan Seeking]

Good thing we're not counting nuclear fuel rods here.

 

[Astronuc]

How many?

I could swear that 7 was a 9.

Nuts. OK - 237 to go.

We could conceivably do it by noon CST. Go help in HW.

 

[Ivan Seeking]

I know how it is. From time to time I realize that I have completely misread a thread because I didn't really see it. As my vision gets worse, so does my speed reading.

 

[Astronuc]

I have a case of juvenile senility.

 

[turbo]

If a 6 turned out to be 9, I don't mind. Point on, Mr. Businessman! You can't look like me.

 

[Redbelly98]

Looking more like 2 pm Central or 3 pm Eastern USA. Or shortly after.

So what's the prize for nailing the 2 millionth milestone? Do I get a free flight on PhysicsForums airlines to ClassicalMechanics island in the caribean? Get a QuantumMechanical rum drink with one of those Engineering umbrellas in it? Do we get a Philosophy massage from MathIsHard while laying out on the beach?

You get a nice message.

Are we there yet?

117 to go!

 

[Redbelly98]

We're within 100. 91 to go.

 

[Astronuc]

86 - Get smart

It's like waiting for the PF ball to decrease its gravitational potential energy.

 

[Evo]

76

 

[Doc Al]

76

71!... make that 70!

 

[Doc Al]

Of course, what percentage are goofball posts like this one?

 

[turbo]

53 left to go. Wooh!

 

[Ivan Seeking]

I wonder how many have been deleted.

These posts don't count do they? At least, they don't count towards personal stat counters, so I imagine they won't count towards the forum wide one.

 

[Hootenanny]

I wonder what would happen if someone were to delete a couple of hundred posts...?

 

[turbo]

40 left to go

 

[Ivan Seeking]

I have to go so I'll start the celebration just a bit early
