I realize it is that time in your zone...I was asking if you think the million will be reached before it is 10pm in your zone. That would translate to 2pm in my time zone.
Can I extend my predication of reaching the millionth on Monday to your time zone?

Before (68733): Emerson, Nebraska.
After (68734): Emmet, Nebraska.

I am wondering if the towns in Nebraska were zip-code numbered alphabetically (i.e, sorted alphabetically before the zipcodes were assigned). ??? :o

I think so. It just might be Monday on the West Coast when the million is reached.

Before (68733): Emerson, Nebraska.
After (68734): Emmet, Nebraska.

Possible, for the Postcodes in Greater London for the areas are. For instance West London starts with W, apart for W1 which is a central important area and W2 Bayswater:

W3 Acton
W4 Chiswick
W5 Ealing
W6 Hammersmith
W7 Hanwell
W8 Kensington
W9 Maida Vale
W10 North Kensington
W11 Notting Hill
W12 Shepherds
W13 West Ealing
W14 West Kensington

...though can I remind you that the full postcode bears an additional number and two extra letters, so the BBC TV Studios based in Shepherdds Bush has the postcode of W12 7RJ.

just a little bit more than 500 to go

Who will reach the goal?

Less than two hundred to go now! I think it'll happen within a couple hours.

Nearly midnight here in the UK and we're down to only 160 to go....or 159 if you include this one...can I stay awake?

This feels like Dick Clark's Rockin' Eve ;D

Geez, with only a few of us on here, it's not going very quickly......

How are you even going to know which post it is?

Well, if only a couple of us keep posting until we get there, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out which one it is ;)

;D I just read this and it cracked me up 

I'm such a dork, I was watching it closely, and was determined to take note when it hit 1,000,000... It was at about 999,973 , when I last saw it . Then I looked up again and it was 1,000,023.. so I missed it!! Damnit!  ::)

yeah, I think there was at least five people watching it like a hawk and posting like mad in the hope they'd be the ones.

I had to delete a post just to make sure I got it. 

no I didn't.  did I?

there is a temptation to do that, hey, hold the phone Chuck! that would allow all of us at one time to become the one milliionth poster.

Now the millionth post/reply has been reached, who actually attained it?

Mama K.

Congrats to longtime member Mama K.  Although it would of been nice if ChuckyG got it since he was online posting on this thread at the time. We should have coordinated allowing him the honor but we didn't think of it, & it got kind of exciting leading up to it. I didn't care if I got it or not, but was kinda hoping it was him. Mama K was at the right place at the right time and gets the honor of the One Millionth Post.  8)

what happens now? We take a moment to reflect on all that went on during those 1 million posts of inthe00s, the many games and quizzes played, and all those great clever conversations and a few arguments and so much silliness and the many smiles and new friendships that were made ......

...still reflecting.....




















ok, the moment is over. Now all of us Postwhores can move on to the 2 Millionth Post.  8)

[quote author=

In bold the next target?


The bold number, is the number of posts in this software, combined with posts and topics from older versions of this board (when it used to be smaller messageboards on seperate sites, amiright and inthe80s).

It doesn't count posts that have been deleted or lost.  It counts the number of messages still in the archives.

For some reason, I think making the 1,000,000 mark for that number got less attention.  Technically, we hit the 1,000,000 mark a year or so ago, longer if you factor in the four months of missing messages, stuff that people deleted, stuff I deleted, etc. 

All around, meaningless numbers.  I think it's just fun to see number turn over, like when your car rolls over to 100,000.  My Mustang did that two years ago.  Unfortunately the picture of the odometer didn't come out so well.

Our '92 Toyota Camry reached 100,000 miles on January 23, 1996. It took another 4 1/2 years to get 200,000. It still runs well after almost 15 years, but we haven't been driving it as much.

Similar to cricket, when a hundred or multipules of hundred or scored by individual batsman or as a total for the team.

The only cricket I'm familiar with is the insect. I know it's a sport too, but I hardly know anything about it, mainly because it's not played often in the United States.

There are two clubs I know of in the USA, one is based in Pittsburgh and the other is a cricket team in LA formed out of down-and-outs that are taught religion and life through cricket, this club toured the UK in the late 90s.

It is more West of me, North of me is near where Davester lives the Carquinez bridge, South of me is the Bay Bridge, goes from Oakland to SF and thats the one I usually go on, and there is the San Rafael Bridge that is west also and that goes to Marin County where San Quentin prison & Sausalito is.

There are many bridges, the Bay Area is vast, here is a better shot of the Golden Gate, left part of bridge is Marin county, right side of bridge goes to San Francisco which you can see the many buildings of downtown SF and to the upper left is the Bay Bridge that is going from SF to Oakland. ooops, i forgot the bridges  :-http://www.lewissommer.com/Panoramic%20Photographs/images/Golden%20Gate%20Bridge.jpg and it came out too small

No, you'll have some more Arizona zipcodes before you get to 90000. You have to go through Nevada as well; I'm sure the zipcode for Las Vegas begins with 89xxx.

And for the record, ALL the zipcodes in California begin with 9.
