    Naw, I don't think anyone could tell who made the exact millionth post. But we know we're over it! Next stop, 2,000,000!

    Having a little trouble determining that!! Since we came from vBulletin the post ids might have changed, making it difficult/impossible for me to actually figure it out. Still going to poke around and see if I can figure it out though!!

    Well that was based on a rough count with incomplete data and now Daniel says he isn't sure who it was. But I signed on when the count was 999,996. The last 4 posts would have already likely been made at that time. The next hourly update count was 1,000,009 ( I think, memory's fuzzy). So I counted nine back and give or take I came up with those 3 names. So if it wasn't you, you were close. But it's a guess without enough data. I could be off by 10 or more.

    I get that lol. Just thought it was funny that it even could be me, since I was clueless that it was even happening, lol. Don't worry, I'm not all excited or anything. Just amused. The odds of it being me, based on my life experience, is ummm.... somewhere around... zero, lol.

    Hey maia, sorry I missed this! I'll give it to two new members that signed up today: @Super Awesome Me @Low

    You are signed up for a year, but the auto renewal is no longer set up since the software upgrade. I might re-add the option in the future though.

    Everyone who won a book should have gotten a message from me today. If I missed anyone let me know.

    thanks, daniel!

    hopefully, they'll keep it up... if you can't set up the auto-renewal, can you at least send us a reminder a month before expirataion, to let us know when our year is up?

    I'll probably switch back, I was testing some functionality. When I shared a page on facebook the first avatar on the page showed up as the icon on facebook - which in my test was my avatar. If people are sharing threads for WF I'd not have my face be associated with every page - so my changing it I was testing to see if the share link changed.

    As for the rep bars, the rep system still needs to be tweaked. Actually, I need to buy an add-on for it, so it'll be a while before a final rep system is in place. Expect rep points to fluctuation over the next few weeks.

    Shhh, that was actually the reason we changed rep systems, I have all the rep power now peons!!! lol.

    Back on topic though, I PM'd everyone about the books several days ago. I'm very backlogged right now, so I apologize for not getting back to everyone yet. I'll try to get back to you guys and have the books sent out sometime next week.
