Awesome set of prizes! Good luck to all.

Personally, in the interest of attempting to preserve a bit of this place's signal-to-noise ratio, I wish that likes received also counted as points (rather than only posts made). That way, people who make fewer but more valued contributions would be encouraged... Just a thought.

While I realize you have to limit the amount of tickets being given out, but 100 post in 30 days per ticket seems to be excessive.

That is fewer than 4 per day.

It is only 3 to 4 posts per day...
That it is, but it'd still be a nice improvement for my currently lackluster post count.

Your lackluster post count? I may even break 100 lifetime posts!

well if the computer is correct is it past midnight GMT October 1

and this counts as my first post for the contest
My reckoning is that midnight on 1st occurs after 23:59 on the 1st, shortly followed by 00:01 on the 2nd....

Am I the only one to see it that way? (ie the new year starts after midnight on the 31st of December)

@Adam please enlighten me! (Us)

I answered my own question, bar at top is very handy.

Member @FozzFoster; is the first to reach 100.
I expect others will reach that total before the month is over.

I don't see that at all.
We are still quibbling about details at just about the same level.
