Nope. Penguin nailed it. I assumed that the 6000 was the growth per day of the Corner. It's not... it's the site. The Corner growth will be only some percentage of that 6000.

Since current posts -945,715

and

The top 10 whores have posted 884 so far today (with it still early on the West coast) it is reasonable to say that >1000 ppd will be posted to the corner on weekdays and fewer on the weekend. Assume 1000 ppd on average (good call NikePenguin)

1,000,000 - 945,715 = 54,285

54,285 / 1,000 = 54.285 = 54 days 6 hours and 50 minutes.

If we consider it is currently 3:30 Pacific time we'll reach 1,000,000 on June 13th around 10:10 pm Pacific time.... give or take a few hours.

(There's a problem here. You can't measure and not impact the outcome. Remember Harry Seldon?

let's use a different method.
feb 18 has 875633 posts
from Feb 18 to April 19 there have been 60 days (28 days in feb and 31 days in March)
945715 - 875633 = 70082
that works out to be 1168 posts / day

so 54285/1168 = 46.5 days (or 46,5 days for TJ and JED benefit since they don't use the decimal)

This would work out to be June 6th at 3:43am PST.

I don't know but Jackson is the only one who could. Although I'd like to see the Rodriguez version (did Sin City and El mariachi etc.)

What this doesn't take into account is that I will be on holiday (vacation for you heathens ) from 7 ~ 16 May .....
