kayo Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Not a troll, nor a spammer... Perhaps a wee bit premature... But we can't all be perfect. Thought is pleasant enough... Oh, and if you include all the deleted'by'admin/mods posts then we could be at a million already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlanetMan, maybe you (or some other knowledgeable member) could do an extrapilation going on average daily posts to get a close approximation of the day we will reach that magic number.

Jai Dee Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Based on the statistics I posted 2 days ago, I checked the number of posts at 7:51am this morning and it was 982,062. That's 3,135 posts in 2 days, or 1567.5 posts per day. Projecting this number forward as a daily post count, one could expect the millionth post to occur sometime during the evening on the 28th or early morning of the 29th of this month. But that projection assumes a lot and is based only on the last 2 days worth of posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any way to know which post will actually be the one millionth post? If punters are being encouraged to wager on the time of the millionth post them some consideration should be given to day-of-week and time-of-day variability in the rate of posts. I'm guessing it will be posted sometime Tuesday morning in Bangkok. To determine the millionth post, would it be a simple SQL query run after the count exceeded 1 million? Regardless of how is is done, the impressive thing is that it has been done at all. Look around, there are many forum sites on the Web; this level of popularity is uncommon. Kudos to the TVC team; what they've done is bloody difficult! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
