    The thread of the day is completely random, so there's no way to check AFAIK...

    I'll leave it open for a few weeks in case some of the developers have anything more to add, but I don't think it's possible.

    Sorry about that! :(

    Shield got it right - Unlike the previous Posts of the Day (which you can find by searching for all thanked posts by user "Boards.ie") we keep no records about the Thread of the Day except for the ID of the current one.

    Couldn't you just set up a new account called "boards.ie TOTD" and thank the first post of the TOTD? Automating it would be the hard part, but wouldn't it use most of the same codebase as POTD? Although I suppose it's not exactly high priority... :)

    On a (slightly) related note, who are the two posters who managed to get banned by the Boards.ie account? That's got to be something of a badge of honour
