ECF - Heading towards 10 million! Prizes.....

[DC2]

There will be a huge surge in posting as we get closer to the mark I'm guessing.

There will be a huge surge in the last 10 minutes.

 

[zoiDman]

I think there will be a Monumental Explosion of Posts around October.

The like of which the ECF has Never Seen Before.

 

[spaky]

Just to gauge how much longer it might be, here are the stats from a year ago and today.

Last year on this date there were Posts: 6,666,323 Members: 98,661 Active Members: 12,305

Today there are Posts: 9,740,261 Members: 147,961 Active Members: 20,705

If you could post 8~10 Post Totals and there Respective Dates over the Last Year, I could do a Curve Fitting Regression to give a Projected date for the 10,000,000 mark.

We have that but I don't have time right now. Maybe if one of the other mods does they can get it for you.

Cool

It would be Kinda Fun to see how well an Extrapolated Function maps to the Actual Post Count.

It would be! Though it would be slightly inaccurate because there are a lot of posts hidden from the membership that are not included in the post count at the bottom of the index.

Yeah... There is also the Issue if Some Major Event Occurred e-Cigarette-wise that would cause More People to post Than Usual.

But it would be Cool to try and Do some Curve Corrections and "Adjust for Drift" for a Monumental Event.

 

[tiburonfirst]

keeping my eye on zoid!

Someone needs to . . .

I'd like to see even more data points.
Like maybe the number of posts on the first day of each month for the last 4 years.

I'd love to see the shape of that graph.

You took the Words Right Out of My Mouth.

Wouldn't it be Cool to Sift thru the Numbers looking for Little Peaks in the Data?

Here is where the Dry Burn was Conceived.
There is where the FDA Lost in Court.
The LavaTube Debuted on this Week.
UKVapers.com is Shut Down.
VAMO Madness Month.
.
.
.
etc

I imagine that the Early Periods of the ECF could be Patched together with Relatively Linear Segments. Making a Piece-wise Continuous Function over a Couple Year Domain.

But the Last 18 Month I would say is a when you would see a Nice Curve that is "Increasing at a Increasing Rate".
