Here's another Idea, maybe Adam can give away a PF T-shirt to the most accurate prediction?
Neat idea. Here's another: winner of July decided by the person who most closely guesses the post count for July. No target
count to achieve, (quality over quantity). All submissions to be entered well ahead of the end of the month, (20th?).

Adam's goal is for us to be active and have fun this summer. Ignore the negative talk, and that is exactly what is happening - even with the goofy stuff {unless you're the Grinch}

The average percentage of 40,000 posts has been 3.3 approximately per day to the present. So, including hslf of today, that would leave 4 1/2 days to go. 4.5 x 3.3 = 14.85. If the 14.85 percent is added to the present percentage of posts, that would give the approximate percentage of 40,000 that will be completed by the end of the month.

Note: 85.93 percent plus the 14.85 percent is 100.88 percent. So that would complete the 40,000 goal. This is approximation, but there obviously has been a steady rate, and with users knowing there is a goal, maybe there will be a surge to complete it.

It is 85.95% right now.

I will be very surprised if it just
85.95 + 3.3 = 89.25% at this time tomorrow

Well, this is certainly the unabashed "Postitis" thread.
40002. As soon as the mark is hit, we're all going to take a break.

Then will come the two frantic threads to determine who's in the drawing .... and we'll be into July looking for another 40K {or 60K} posts. Hopefully we won't get a lousy start as we did this month.
