Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Anyone who has seen the previous compeitions will know it is worth entering.

    So here is the rules.

    1. Put in the post the date that I will post my 10,000 post.

    2. Duplicate entries of the same date, the first person to enter the date wins unless someone adds more information (See below for example).

    3. One entry for person. Should be put as a reply on this thread.

    4. Top level mods (those who have the power to alter post counts) cannot enter. Related to me? Can't enter either.

    5. If you edit your post which contains your entry then you are automatically disqualified.

    EXAMPLE:
    The person closest in information wins. Example.

    Person 1: 4th August 2004.
    Person 2: 4th August 2004. before 3pm
    Person 3: 4th August 2004. Politics forum.

    Now if they got the date correct, but time was 4pm then the first person wins, but if the post was in the politics forum then the third person wins.

    I won't be looking at this post when I get to within 100 posts. If you have questions then, then send me a Private Message.

    I think one of the admins will freeze your post count at 9,999.

    If they do, then the competition becomes null and void, and they are friendly enough not to do that.
