Thanks for running the competition Chris!!!! U R Da Man!!!

using my government issued crystal balls i say 15623

Paul S

QUOTE

I would say that the total will be 7930, unless a lot of spamming goes on!

LOL, are you sure Paul, that's quite a low figure, especially with "Kimmie" on . We can exceed 100 posts in a day when she's around!.

I reckon 9184

Well I can't even win a raffle but here goes anyway. I think it will be around 6,756. I've probably more chance of getting pregnant!!!!!!!!!

ooooh my guess is 12,364!

Hmmm well working on Kimmie being gagged by a helpful admin, Mikeee working too much to post, and Chris taking it a bit easier than he has been doing, I reckon 11748 ish!

9876 for me will do.
Ooh please let me win ..go on !
Cris

This is the spot I will place my guess once I reach 50 posts. 32 to go.

edited after I read the rules

Nice one Chris.

My estimated guess is 9999.

well i hope im close!!

I reakon 9670

I'm going to guess 14,500

I took into account when the forum started, how many posts we've got so far, how many members we've got already, an estimated increase in users, their contributions, a slight "snowballing" effect on new users telling their colleagues to join, average posts per day - per member, seasonal averages and trends, eg: members being busier at weddings and away on holiday etc...

Then deleted the spreadsheet by accident and guessed... 14,500....

I say 12,oo0

um.. 13,500

looks like i need to do some posting, first

Ian,

I was going to say 43 but you beat me to it.

Last chance to take part in this competition . We will close this thread at the end of June and no further entries will be accepted.

Please ensure that your guess has been added / edited by 8PM today!.

hmmm... well taking into consideration that you arent suddenly going to "limit" the number of posts from the lovely Paula and myself!.... My guess is going to be..... 12912... somebody should have a little private word in Loz's ear and perhaps some of the youngsters.... dont think the realise that we are looking at the number of posts from everyone (bless them lets give the younguns a chance!)

I say 13076

15473

i did not take into account how busy this forum is, so i think my initial guess of 43 may have been low



























2nd guess is 71

The Winner will be announced on Sunday 7th September, before I drive down to the PLASA . If the Winner is attending the PLASA on that day, I may bring it down and ask Paula to make the presentation! .

(Now don't you wish that you'd taken part!)

In view of the increase in the number of members over the past month, I have decided to re-open the competition for a very limited time on a random day, at some point before 9th August.

Keep watching this thread for notification of when the topic is re-opened!.

Right with only a few weeks to go, here is a chance for all of the new members to take part in this competition.

If anybody who has already made a guess you can use this as a 2nd and Final opportunity to adjust your guess . If you have already made a post on this thread, then please adjust your guess by editing your existing post!!!!, please DO NOT post again in the same thread!.

Ok here is my Guess!!

Ummmm

11,950

Cheers

Good Luck all
