The 5,000,000th Post

[bbjeg]

Me should the 5,000,000th post be in this thread.

If the 5,000,000 isn't eddie, then the Cylons really do have a plan.

 

[rhubarbodendron]

only 366 more to go Looks like it'll happen in a few hours. Chances are good for Aussies, Asians and sleepless Europeans

DANG!

I'll be going over to mum's to watch a film in a few minutes... I might miss this milestone

 

[cooleddie74]

Can you access the Internet on a phone or tablet? Take them with you and sneak some peeks at the BBS while you're watching the movie. Maybe then you won't miss anything at all.

I was planning to do that!

ETA:

Oh, and I better bring a bottle of champagne as well...

 

[cooleddie74]

Best of both worlds. Movie....and a show.

 

[trekkiedane]

^Actually, as it's nearing midnight when the film ends we decided to watch in pyjamas... I'll be wearing my TOS-Science-Officer pyjama

Out of curiousity I looked up the other stepping stone posts:

LOL! post # 1,000,000 is apparently a Briefing Room post as I get a warning message that I am trying to access something I don't have permission to. Could one of the Mods perhaps be so sweet as to look up who posted it?
# 2,000,000 is Bob the scutter's post in Holy sh*t!! Red Dwarf is back!!!
# 3,000,000 is a thread starter: Evaluating the 00s by john titor
# 4,000,000 is Litmus Dragon's post in Bajorans - yay or nay

331 to go - at this speed post #5,000,000 will be due in about 5 hours. You might make it after all, trekkiedane

 

[trekkiedane]

is there a way to determine the post that made it? They got to be numbered in the database, but how can a user access a post with a certain number?
It'd be interesting to know who posted # 1,000,000 for example.

B.J. wrote something about that here and corrected it here.

ETA: Didn't notice till right now!: Happy birthday Ghouleddie

[Bob The Skutter]

Sort of like disappointment and sadness.

 

[cooleddie74]

It's like waiting on a space launch. Only the destination is North Dakota.

[dg1379]

How come at the bottom of the main page it states that there are only 4,978,407 posts? Is this counter updated differently?

 

[Australis]

Don't know, don't care, usr the side one at the top.

Or... look at it this way, there can be 2 5,000,000th posts. It's the NYE 2000 thing all over again.
