Will PF Reach 200,000 Members Before Threads Hit 333,333?

[Dembadon]

That is so Evo

Actually, my post depicts what went through my mind when I read about Evo's nightmare. It gave me an idea for a way to manipulate the outcome of this member contest by using some expendable income, for selfish reasons of course.

Yesterday, our average from the first post was 225 new members per 24 hrs.

Quite do-able, then. Let's hope that instructors and profs hand out some very tough homework questions today and tomorrow.

Yes, I was betting on a few relatively slow days, but we haven't seen any.

What would you guess Dave?

I'd say chat eve... Good guess turbo, you're the closest apparently.

 

[turbo]

3pm chat day might be closer. We'll see.

[Char. Limit]

Wow, I was actually closer than I thought I'd be, to be honest.

Ah, we did see it slow down a bit for the weekend. My guess is looking better by the minute.

 

[Ivan Seeking]

199,859

+359 over the last 48 hours.

 

[Borek]

Obviously we won't hit 200k during chat.

 

[Ivan Seeking]

It looks to me like rootX is going to be the closest. But I'm not sure how much traffic we see on Monday mornings.

TheStatutoryApe is locked in at 1159; between Dave at 12 noon, and rootX at 11:58 AM.

 

[Ivan Seeking]

121 to go.

 

[DaveC426913]

121 to go.

Aren't we due for an obsolete member purge?
Hate to get a false positive on the goal...

I only purge members who sign up and don't confirm their email.
