dunno..I made it up. I did find a ten second delay on replies.

About the third day of the month Adam added a restriction that hadn't existed the first two months. If a person has made 75 posts in the PYP! Section in the past 24 hours, s/he is not allowed to comment on an old photo {where 'old photo' is determined based on when it was originally posted}. That is what ended most 200+ post days. Incidentally I managed to run into that restriction three times, all in the past ten days or so.

I also stumbled on old photos. I found out the hard way that the "recent" photos also jumbles in very old ones. I like the gallery so kept posting but it dredged up some very old corpse threads as I dropped poetry shorts and whatever came imagery to mind, Trying to make good posts. Then I found the general convo threads. .:P

Congratulations!

We seem to be screaming towards the K-1mk2 at a fierce rate. Where is everyone posting?

I'm fairly sure this is the first time more than two people have hit the 75 post limit on the same day.

The key to reaching 51K will be the time periods midnight UTC {8pm EDT} - 8am UTC {4am EDT} on the the next two nights. "Traditionally", we have a very low posting rate during that time when the Western Hemisphere is either asleep or preparing to be asleep; more posts during that time would do a lot to move us towards 51K.

or for those of us in the Western Hemisphere to find some way of posting a little more in the first few hours of that time, and for those in the Eastern Hemisphere to post a little more in the last few hours. To find some way of cramming even more posting into the "prime time" of 7am EDT {11am UTC} to 8pm {midnight UTC} sounds like madness to me.

For anyone who wants to track it themselves, I've created a Google spreadsheet:

Careful what you do to it, your changes will be permanent for everybody.
