My guess is sometime on 31st December 2011 (GMT).


(Ref: predict the date for 40,000 members thread)
I'd say you have the advantage, pdurrant, as you can see the daily stats . That said, I'll guess at 10th Jan 2012.

Just go here and scroll to the bottom. You can follow the membership numbers too!

I based my guess on increase in numbers since 40,000 members and a fudge factor.

I can't work out the daily stats from that, but maybe I'm just being dense.

One thing it has shown me, which I was wholly unaware of, is the members' chat feature. How could I have only now stumbled across it, after alomost a year?

That's a lousy birthday. My condolences. I hope people don't stint on your gifts and wrap them in Christmas paper, to boot.

Well the 30th is mine, and I totally agree that it is a lousy time of year to have it.
