So let's do it again...
for the ones who weren't there, we did this around Christmas time already, for the 9000 registered members and we had great fun if I remember right.
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
This is a bet, and the winner is the one who guesses the closest day and time to when registered member: 10000 registers.

For the record, the count is at
Registered Members: 9448
right now.
This is the number that appears on the 'Forum Home' page at the right towards the top of the page, in a box.
Only that number counts.

Robin, would you be the judge, please ? (are you able to see when exactly a person has registered ?)

Only the first bet of each person will be accepted, changing names (screen name or login) is cheating, if anyone notices you are out.

[edited by red]

The last bet will be taken on March 1st, 2005, 12pm EST.

The time in your bet is EST, wherever you live.

The prize...the honour to be the winner.


I say

Wow! Hard to believe that we are almost at that number! Here's my guess:

March 10, 2005
12:38PM

This would be in honor of when my baby was born 7 years ago at that exact time on that exact day.

Good luck all!

Red, let's avoid confusion.
Remember that the number on the home page is total registered members, and not member number. There is a difference of 44.
In other words Member Number 10,000 will show this site at 9956 Registered Members.

This bet is for Member Number 10,000 putting the site at 9956 registered members right?

is that metric or standard?


APRIL 1, 2005, high noon...and his/her name will be "the fool".

Don..she stated above that it would be the number that shows on the forum home page...not in the directory...REd...if I'm wrong let me know b/c it really makes a difference and I'll edit my guess accordingly b/c I seriously lost out last time due to confusion


I'm going to be a sap....April 19th at 4:55 p.m. My son was born then and it was a fairly lucky time.

The confusion (perhaps my own) I'm referring to is

quote:

If member no. 10000 is someone who has put in a bet, he is out.

Probably meant as the 10,000th registered member? which would be member no. 10,044.
Don't laugh at me, it's my feeble minded day, sorry.

I GIVE UP
LOL

Nah, you can't give up just because I am clueless

10,000 registered members/ member no. 10,044?

OK, Don and the others,

first action: all, stop teasing,

second action: all, please note the new wording of the first post, I hope it's clearer now

and third action: Robin, do you think you could synchronise the 'member numbers' with the 'registered members count ?
it would be a relief...

Well since last time I was one of the winners and I used my birthday. I'm going to go with Gabriel's birthday. So, I say:

March 20th 2005
4:30 a.m.

whew hoo
let the games begin

:award:

Thanks Red, sorry if I'm the one that confused it

So anyway, my guess is March 29, 7 PM EST

does any one else wish to make a guess ?

It's killing me ! I believe (according to the latest extrapolations) Gabriel's Mom is the closest, and she won last time too
:angry:

AND JD is the next closest to my latest guess, and he was the other winner of the bet for the 9000.
GRRRR

My guess is April 29th at 5:19pm.
