The Pool on when Ralph hits 100,000 posts

Re: The Pool on when Ralph hits 100,000 posts

What if the post ticker is only set-up for five digits? :eek:

We all know post count doesn't matter, but if that happened, it'd be hard to not point and laugh :D

I doubt highly that it will happen, but it would give me an excuse to change my handle. I suspect that the maximum is the same 2,147,483,647 as for Rep.

Can't you change it with an email to the Admins? Would you lose your post count if you changed names?
You'll never hit the max if your suspicions are correct. I bet if you started posting as an infant, and lived a reasonable length of time, you'd never be able to reach it


/Expecting a math equation that proves my theory ;)

Now, you better not go for that total, for your own sake.

:D It's impossible because one has to wait 10 seconds between posts. The most one can post is 6 times per minute or 360 times per hour or 8640 times per day. It would take over 248,551 days to do that which is over 680 years.

You quoted that before I changed 720 to 360. :o (The other numbers were correct.)

I thought they got rid of the delay between posts a long time ago.

edit: guess not!

There has to be some sort of delay or Ralph could write a bot that could accomplish the impossible. :D (and probably send the USCHO server down with the ship).
