Getting closer:

At the rate of approx 300 posts/day, with 100 posts to go, we're perhaps 6 to 10 hours away.

I'll be asleep ... nope ... not gonna set my alarm.

... but that's a whole lotta posts.

testament for what has been going on here and for that ... I salute you all Avalonians.

Staff ... greeters ... members all.

Seriously ... thank you

[Tangri]

We're close now... we stand at 999,919 posts, (included this one),so I haven't missed anything... yet. But, as I said earlier I'm not trying to get the one millionth post... just being observant and celebrating our 'Birthday'/milestone...

Thanks for reminding me of my 5th, which I missed completely. Overwhelmed by all the statistics around here.
Also when I double checked the post count...you are right.
We have a few more to go.

I'm not interested in getting the 1,000,000th post myself... I'm just choosing to bring awareness to it's fast-approaching 'arrival' because I find it quite fascinating and a great way to spark more celebratory unity into this 'cascading' community.

PS... Good Luck...

Have we got there yet - ? I've no idea with all the different calculations

Anyway I think Paul will get the millionth post because he has already got 200, 230 of the total - oh whoops sorry - where did that extra naught come from -

Hi there, Ulli — the honor should probably go to you, on the Here and Now thread. I'll keep my own fingers off the keyboard. But it may be tricky to co-ordinate!

[Valley]

There's no mystery... it's easy to see the statistics anytime yourself... just go down the page and look in the text box which is below all the forum categories, at this link: https://projectavalon.net/forum4/forum.php
It now says 999,929 posts.

Not only too tricky to co-ordinate, Bill.
Also too stressful to find a meaningful message.
Like "a small and dainty post for a woman yet a giant step for Avalon",
or something of that nature.
We would have to do a drill around that time.

At the rate of approx 300 posts/day, with 100 posts to go, we're perhaps 6 to 10 hours away.

By the way, these stats come from both https://projectavalon.net/forum4/index.php and https://projectavalon.net/forum4/forum.php, both of which are now, as I began writing this post, at 999,937

There are multiple places that the number of posts shows up, one way or another. They are not all the same ... different code implementations varying in minor details.

Correction, if your an Admin, both those counts show 999,937.

If you're a member, the first two of the above two links shows only 889,285 posts, so apparently that counter only shows you a count of the posts you're allowed to view, at whatever permissions your login has.

The second of the above two links, https://projectavalon.net/forum4/forum.php, should show the same for all of us, "Posts 999,939" (and counting), near the bottom of the page.

Have we got there yet - ? I've no idea with all the different calculations

I'd suggest using the counter at the foot of this page (the 'Forum' tab), in the 'What's Going On?' section. It looks like this:



The different numbers seems to be because of different ways the post count is measured by the software. None of us knows for sure (not even Paul! ). But it may be that, for instance, the lower number, which may be more 'real', is because of posts made in error that have been deleted, and so on.

See my preceding post ... I figured it out .

ok - cheers -

anyway - congratulations (and thanks) Bill ~ for hosting a successful forum that has weathered a few storms and come out smiling -

A different count might be Private Messages. There, I totally claim the record.

Unbelievably — even to me! — my current PM text download (click here for how to do that) stands at 11,300 pages and 3.8 million words. That's nearly 5 times as long as the Bible...

[ulli]

The odds are that I won't make the 1,000,000th post, and that's ok.

Butt... I've nevertheless been thinking of a good a meaningful summary post.

One that sums up all Avalonians, dead and alive, including the retired and unsubscribed members.

And using the Law of Artraction, I found it.

Judge for yourselves:
