Everytime I visit SB I always check out the # of members and posts as they are ever soo increasing.

SB should hit about 9000 members pretty darn soon, but is at 200,000+ posts right.

I wonder how long it will take to reach 1,000,000.
 
Oh what the heck. For my new pal, jepuskar, I'll add a post in the effort to reach 1,000,000 posts (holding my pinky in Dr. Evil fashion as I type this).
 
Being that this a scuba board, it is only right that we start a pool. On what date will 1 millionth message be posted?? The winner will get______?? That is the next question.

But in order to make an educated bet you have to know the date of the first post.
 
Posts = Posts + 1

(sorry, geek terminology) :D

Posts = Posts + 1

(sorry, geek terminology) :D

Like this?

10 Set Post = 1;
20 Post = Post +1;
30 If Post = 1000000, then GOTO 50
40 Goto 20
50 End

As you can probably guess, its been awhile. I don't even remember COBOL, Fortran or Pascal anymore.
:D

No, geek terminology would be more like this:

main()
{
for ( int i = 0; i < 1000000; i++ )
;
}


or...

int nPosts = 0;
while ( nPosts++ < 1000000 )
;

:eek: YIPE! These previous two would end up in a mess! Let's keep you guys away from the source code for the Scubaboard! :D

Programmers don't use goto's damn wannabes making my job harder
