AFF's 30,000 post thread...sadly without a prize!!

Since Lindsay has been very busy with work and I am already covered up to my armpits in sand thought it was time to start this thread as we have just passed 28,000 posts.

Prizes - anyone kind enough to donate a prize.

To make it interesting, all picks must be entered by midnight AEST 10 May.

The winner is the person who is closest (but before) the winning number. Do deleted posts count...probably, because it's easier to calculate when we reach 30K posts.

Plenty of time so grease your abacus, or shine your crystal ball. If any prize giver wins, then they can win any prizes that aren't their own; whilst their prize goes to the next closest picker.

The thread title is misleading since there is no prize!

I'm sure there'll be a suitable collection of loot for the winner. 8) 8)

Shhh! That was the whole idea. We may get more people posting a prediction if they think there is a prize on offer.

Hmm. Not a lot of action on this thread. Would offering a cash prize alter the situation? Anyone want to offer any prize?

22nd May 2006, 11:27am EST!

* change guess from April to May as we are already into May and I meant May *

I think it must be close.

I'll guess 16th May @ 12:00pm AEST.

If no-one else guesses then I win by default don't I?

BTW, This is post 28951.

I made a guess yesterday as well but I typed in a date in April which was a mistake. Edited my guess to May but you should be closer to the 30,000th post anyway.
