As of a few moments ago, here's the post count... When will we hit 5,000,000 posts? I have not been following the rate of change, so I can only make a guesstimate... Wednesday Nov 9th, day after elections. Should get peppy 'round these parts. Any other guesses?
@Baron you want in on this? Remember what happened the last time, I won a sim steak-dinner. That was 5 years ago, yes, but still, it is fun hehe.
Technically we are way past 5 million. Currently, we are at 5,708,408. If you click the share icon at the bottom right of anyone's post, you can see their post number in the URL at the very end.
Well, technically is not allowed in this contest, Mr. picky nits. We go by what we see on the main-page counter. You are now disqualified. Neener
The only way to truly verify who the winner will be is to see the actual number of his post as described above. So the contest for the 6 millionth post is the next milestone.
