New betting pool
No money at stake, just pride points. Post your prediction in this thread.
Our next gus is at 20000 posts. We stand at about 16700 as of the time of this post (to 3 sig figs, anyway). Please put your prediction as to Date and time (Bored time, please) that we achieve 20000 posts.
I'll go first: Tuesday, Dec. 11, 9:45 AM.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

I'm notoriously bad about picking such things, but being 2000+ posts away and the likelihood that the gus chase will accelerate posting, I'd say next Thursday, 9:42AM, and the poster who will get the gus is PSM.mrkelley23 wrote:Bumpity-bump.
We'll probably cross the 18000 threshhold today.

It probably won't be me. Though I like chasing guses, I never seem to get them when I try for them.

Looks like nobody will get the right day on this one.
We're only a little over 450 posts away, and that's barely more than an average posting day around here lately. I think 20k's gonna fall sometime tomorrow, maybe even before noon.
