    The One Millionth Post Festivities Thread

    The site is about 32,000 posts shy of one milion. Thoughts? Are there plans for celebration? It seems there should be a prize for whoever does the one millionth post. Also, what about whoever has contributed the most posts? Maybe recognition based on content, more subjective appreciation?

    Are you come to bury caesar or praise caesar?

      Needless to say there should be a special award and recognition of gratitude for Waters. Maybe an apology (not an LDS strong suit, I know)? I hope everyone can bury the hatchet and he'll attend and accept the recognition.

          Great catch, SU. Thanks.

          Given our average burn rate, we should hit the one million mark in about two months.

              The forward-thinking architects of the Burger King in my neck of the woods included a conference room in the design of the restaurant. Let me know if you would like me to reserve it.

                The millionth post should go in the Big 12 Expansion Groundswell thread.

                    Does that include deleted posts?

                    Looking at creeksters post above, it has a number of 1004663. Did we already hit 1,000,000 posts? Why the discrepancy?

                      What are you talking about? I don't see that number anywhere.

                        It is in the URL for a specific post. For example, this url should take you to your post:

                          Good catch, beefytee. So we passed one million almost 4,700 posts ago, I wonder who it was.

                            Post one million belongs to The_Douger!:

                            Outside of Harrison, who has byu offered? I know of Brett Kingma. It looks like it is going to be tough to keep him away from Oregon, Washington and or even Gonzaga, There is some 6-10 center out of Indiana, dont know if he has an offer. Tyrone Corbin's kid may get an offer. Anyone have anything to add? bball recruirting

                              "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf
