You seem to have a little speck on your last post GM.
You might want to clean your keyboard.

pdurrant · 08-22-2019, 07:37 AM

Speck? No, not at all.

Just an indication that I'm winning.

drjd · 08-22-2019, 07:54 AM

I WIN

Hemmi · 08-22-2019, 08:09 AM

Do you?

drjd · 08-22-2019, 08:12 AM

Yes, I do!

PieMan597 · 08-22-2019, 08:45 AM

Are you super sure?

pdurrant · 08-22-2019, 10:09 AM

Loudness does not a winner make.

PieMan597 · 08-22-2019, 10:11 AM

But what if winners are louder?

pdurrant · 08-22-2019, 10:13 AM

The winner only has to have the last post. As I do now.

Dylrob · 08-22-2019, 11:11 AM

No, that was just the LATEST post. The last post shall come only when we reach the maximize size for a thread.

Solitaire1 · 08-22-2019, 01:46 PM

That would not be the end of the thread. Much like with roman numerals, the thread would just go to the Second Order (when the maximum number of posts is reached, a reset will be hit and the count would return to 0 but of the second order [which would be number of posts in original thread + 1]). The thread would not end until we reach the maximum number of orders plus the maximum number of numbers in the current order of the thread.

But in order to do that, you would have to create a new thread. It would not be this same thread. Thus this thread would have a winner, and a new contest would commence.

Hmm, apparently phpBB stores postIDs as 8 numerical digits. Meaning that the maximum theoretical thread size is 100 million.

Well, better get cracking!
