Race to post 1,000,000

  • Just tweeted that SSC's 1 millionth post is imminent, I wonder how that will affect the number of posts coming in.....

    Hope this helps,

    Are we there yet?

    (And damn! I just noticed my last post netted me 1,000 points! Personal milestone for me!)

    Just delete 2 posts and try again!

  • I suspect it will be tonight now. Apart from this and THE Thread, the editorials this week are generating lots of discussion, as is the Codeless Apps article today.

    I suspect it will be tonight now.

    Almost certainly. Gonna be all over by tomorrow morning and it's almost bed time for me (approaching midnight).

    No fair! 🙂

    How can you sleep with that just LOVELY project you're on? You'll still be awake. Bleery eyed, grumpy, and ready to bean your PM with a chair, but awake. 😛

    Not a chance. Something the other dev and I have been noticing for the last week or so. We're both worn out. He said monday night he lay down for a short nap at 6pm and woke up at 6am. I managed, this morning, to sleep through an alarm clock that is so loud it can be heard two rooms away. Woke up an hour and a half late.

    I've been posting here way more in the evenings than usual, because I just don't have the energy to do anything more complex.

  • there's still the race to 1000000 posts after steves 'tidying up' of SPAM.

    So we could hit 1000,000 actual posts in the 'posts' table,Steve could delete some SPAM, we could reach it again, Steve could delete some more SPAM.......

    actually I'm going off the idea.............
