Clean your gigs Eric. Its in the first post.

Quote
Rules: The winning post must be from a member with at least ten posts, and a proper post in a public room; that means not a post with just an emoticon, "me too", "lol" or similar comment in, and not any post in Off Topic & Dogpile or any private rooms. In case of doubt or disagreement as to the valid post, we will go with a minimum 3/5 vote from mods: Manny, Chris, Brasscasing, BB and Mendeleyev.

And it would seem that we have a winner!

Unless I am mistaken, post #100,000

And it would seem that I am mistaken...  :P

Our techs are able to determine which post is the 100,000th, and members can easily track it. (We are using the message counter at the bottom of the board not message numbers in the URL's - they can differ.)

51 more posts to go. Anyone think it'll happen in the next 6 hours or so? The larger than usual number of guests viewing shows lots of folks want to know.

I think it was me, and I can prove it!

Would be ironic if Voyager got it by complaining he cocked up his claim for Shane winning it! If Voyager is a he, I don't actually know...
