POOL: When will I break 10,000 posts?
I'm quickly approaching the 10K post mark. So for fun, I thought I'd through out the question... when do you think I'll hit number 10,000?

The one who gets the closest to the actual date (and, if necessary, time) will win... uh...

...our undying admiration, and you'll be hoisted onto our shoulders and carried around the room while we chant your name.

I won't change my posting habits, nor will I artificially delay in order to cause someone to win. Not that there's anything to be gained by "winning"!

Get in before I hit 9,100 (about 150 posts from now), or you'll be too late!

The bigger question is... will GBL pass me before then?

I doubt I will catch up, but I reckon you'll hit 10k by July 5th

Interesting post, I reckon that Mike will hit the 10,000 post count in no time considering the amount of posts per day. I would estimate about 3-4 weeks time. As for GBL, you might not beat Mike but you'll catch up quickly.

When you post that 10,000th time you'll have your 10,000 broken posts....

These are Army posts, various sizes.

And yes, I'm doing it by hand.
Wait, that sounded differently in my head...
