The old thread where the count started has been deleted. I'm not sure if even a mod could look back to see when that was. @purpledragonclaw? Is there any way to answer that question? At any rate, you are right that it is no so fast!! Ohh, right, thank you! Maybe we will be done in 2040, but it will TOTALLY worth it! 54,863 Edited September 27, 2020 by LeoReginae I watched the wrong page Share this post Link to post

Posted September 27, 2020 @purplehaze @LeoReginae I've done some digging and the earliest count I can find is 7,017, going back March, 2011. All else has been lost to the sands of time. I'd assume we've been counting for at least a decade. 2040 to reach 1,000,000 might be an optimistic estimate. 54,874 Share this post Link to post

According to my admittedly rough calculations we would need to average about 135 posts per day to reach 1 million by 2040! So let's get busy! 54,876 Edited September 27, 2020 by purplehaze Share this post Link to post
Posted September 27, 2020 (edited) And I just realized that our count is still off!!! Bottom of page 448 I posted 54,345, which should actually have been 54,846. Top of the next page, Lagie corrected part of the mistake but her 54,837 should actually have been 54,847. No one caught that mistake and it carried through to this page, which should have started with 54,872, instead of 54,862. If you are not thoroughly confused by now you are a better person than I am, but I think the count should now be at... 54,892 Edited September 27, 2020 by purplehaze Share this post Link to post
Posted September 27, 2020 Well, we need all the count we can muster after all! Can't afford to lose even 10. 54,894 Share this post Link to post
