Today, July 5, 2013 we hit the 200,000 post mark. For you statistics types out there... Since inception and not inclusive of the ~2,500 post loss in the The Great Data Debacle of 2010: Avg Posts Per Day - 141 Avg Number of Days for 10,000 Posts - 77 Longest Period for 10,000 Posts - 146 Days covering 20,000 - 30,000 between 1/14 and 6/8/2010 Shortest Period for 10,000 Posts - 49 Days covering 170,000 - 180,000 between 1/17 and 3/6/2013
Anyone actually hit 200,000 in their MINI today to link up with Nathan and MA? Nathan that could be a prize for someone! :biggrin5:
Going on a strict average of number of posts per day to go from 100 -200k we are looking at 639 days. Back then the avg was 80 days to hit 10,000 posts, now that has dropped to 58 Days for 10,000 posts. However, traffic and membership has risen since 10/6/11 when we started on the run from 100k to 200k. Now the math is starting to hurt my head in trying to determine the number of days it will take to get to 300,000. Tell ya what ScottinBend. If you can predict the day we hit 300,000 today (7/5/13) and we hit that day exactly I'll give you $1,000.
Better yet just start a thread on guessing the day, just like the Dragon count contest. But I will still make that guess.............. How about 11/15/2014
On my whiteboard so I do not forget So.... That is 498 Days, that is a long term average of 200 posts per day (PPD). Considering up to now we've seen 141 PPD you'd better get cracking there Scott if you want to help reach your goal. As always, quality trumps quantity.
.....oh I should be good for at least 20 posts a day. That word association thread can be a real gold mine!
Since we hit 225,000 today I thought I'd bring you up to date Scott. We are running behind your goal date.
I'll help but Scott has to split the loot with everyone that's posted. That should work out to about a nickle per person.
