Topic: Can he do it? ... should he try? Posted: December 04 2005 at 23:17 |
Man with Hat has 9083 posts,
posting at 34 posts per day,
There are 27 days left in the year,
34 x 27= 918 posts ...
9083 + 918 = 10,001 posts!!! by the end of the year!
I repeat, this is not a challenge. 
Hmm, I wonder if deleting all the closed nonsense threads will have a substantial effect on his post count!

"Death to Utopia! Death to faith! Death to love! Death to hope?" thunders the 20th century. "Surrender, you pathetic dreamer.”
"No" replies the unhumbled optimist "You are only the present."

155 Posts [1.35 posts per day]
10,000 - 155 = 9845
9845/1.35 = 7293 days
7293/365 = 19.98
So it will take me about 20 years to get to 10,000 posts.

You're including Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Is anyone here desperate enough to be posting on Christmas Day?. MWH - you'll have to up your posting rate a bit!

I have nearly HALF of MWH's posts!
BTW,Chopper: I'm sure I'll be here on Boxing Day and more than once on Christmas Day.

If it wasn't for the fact that I won't be at home for most of Christmas Day, I'd probably be here too.

There was once a time when Stonebeard was a large call centre in Mumbai.
Go MWH....you can do 10K posts...what a party we will have 
I've been reading Tom Wolf's the right stuff again. Makes me think of the herioc deeds of MWH, Stonie & cyygie when they 'pushed the posting envelope' earlier in the year.

MWH, Cyggie and Stonie in their specially modified high density posting suits. Wearing these suits allowed them to stay at their keyboads posting for 24 hours a day.

If I can manage around 314 posts a day, I can get there before the end of the year too.
Ok, here I go...
