Let's try and get 1,000,000 replies to this post

[LooseCannon]

Claiming the 100,000th post will be a battle of epic proportions.

Why is that going to be a big thing?

 

[CriedWhenBrucieLeft]

It isn't. The one after is.

 

[The Flash]

100,001 posts guys. Keep up.

Meh, it was the same story with the start of the millennium. 2001 was the actual start but 2000 still gets the credit for it.

 

[CriedWhenBrucieLeft]

Not really the same story; 100,000 replies is... well, 100,000 replies. It's kinda in the thread title...

 

[MrKnickerbocker]

What's the next goal after 100,000? Does this thread get deleted and replaced with a new 100,000 replies thread?

 

[Saapanael]

Because someone will be able to live with the knowledge that they got the 100,000th post on a thread on an Iron Maiden forum.

 

[Brigantium]

Indeed.

"Nobel Prize?"

"Nah, sod it, I got the 100,000th post on Maidenfans."

 

[JudasMyGuide]

Ah, a man can dream.

But really, with our luck the post in question will be: "Come on, they could play Naples again! Come and vote with me! I have started a petition #NaplesWantsMaiden"

Or a spambot. Whichever comes first.

Or a spambot.

Cried?

And the new millennium started in 2001. There's no other way around it. It's the same story, round numbers are more likely to be considered as milestones.

 

[CriedWhenBrucieLeft]

Cried?

Yes?, what is it Wingman?

 

[Dr. Eddies Wingman]

Yes?, what is it Wingman?

Just wanted to say kippis.

 

[CriedWhenBrucieLeft]

Just wanted to say kippis.

Uh, yeh. Cheers!

 

[Brigantium]

kippis.

Another word I need to learn?

 

[JudasMyGuide]

Yep, they will raise their glasses and yell it in the whole scale - from C to B, do-re-mi way.

That way they will release the Kippis of the Seven Keys.

(sorry, I think I should slowly move myself to the drubl thread)

SMX said he's going to change this thread to 200,000 just before we hit our goal.

Damn, that really sucks about Scott Weiland. RIP

 

[JudasMyGuide]

It is a pity. I think I've only heard one song where he sang - Plush (or was it the whole album?), but 48's just way too early.

 

[The Flash]

I only ever heard of Scott Weiland because he was a massive drug addict, which makes the early death less of a surprise in my case.

I think we did the math (trending) some time ago, 100k goal is expected sometime in 2017?

 

[The Flash]

639 posts in November. It'd take 23 months to reach 100k, so yeah, late 2017 by that rate. Though November wasn't a particularly active month in this thread, I think.

If I had to take a guess, I'd say Spring of 2017.
