He guessed the right date and was only ~3 hours away from the correct time as well.
Either he was just lucky or he calcuated correctly that we would see an increased amount of posts in the forum these last few weeks, probably due to this very competition but also due to the season where we usually see more people hanging out online than during the summer season

I was quit sure that i calculated correctly with dec 13th, but suddenly we had a average posting of 150-195 posts in the last 24 hours. Before like 100-110. Congratz to GeneYuss, an active BRM member.

Posted by saft_suse: does this mean i would have won if i had answered BEFORE the time was up? or was it 50 000 posts 3 hours BEFORE the time gene guessed?
You were VERY close !!
Your guess was: "Thursday, December 11, 2008 @ 04:14 GMT" GeneYuss guessed: "2008-12-11 04:13:00 GMT", so he was one minute closer than you. (Post #50k was at 00:59 GMT).

Teddy, Yeah - but saft_suse didn't submit his guess in time, he only wrote in the thread. So I guess knowing that even though he did submit, he would not have won. Knowing that he would have won if he submitted in time would really have sucked

Posted by indelacio: . perhaps a mobmail to notify of the competition wouldve been in order?
Since it's a forum based competition we figured having this thread as an "announcement" for all the time should be sufficient for our forum users to see it

I anticipated more posts than usual but I was lucky, my guess could have been off by 1-2 days.
