Let's make a small wager on when OldTurkey reaches 500K
UPDATE (2018-05-13)
Well, there you have it. Our beloved @oldturkey03 has reached the 500K milestone. That's quite an achievement and it only took 16,175 Solutions & 115 Guides. So for those of us that visions of grandeur, consider that for a moment :>). Dan is the next closest but even with a full 200 points per day, it would still take nearly 3 1/2 years. There's a very real possibility that these levels will never be reached again, at least not with Answers/Solutions.
So hats off to OT and @mayer for doing more for the DIY fixer community than just about any volunteer alive. I kneel before you and offer many thanks.
@Kyle... I hope iFixit will offer something nice to these gentlemen. Words are nice but free ;>).
----------------------
Once again we are coming up an astonishing milestone. Mike Tyran, aka oldturkey03, has been providing outstanding support and moderation of the Answers Forum for many years now. As a small token of our appreciation...and for fun and giggles, let's start placing our bets on what day exactly @oldturkey03 will hit the 500K milestone!!
I'll start first...I estimate, after much mathematical calculations, that OT will reach 500K on May 21, 2018
Winner gets bragging rights for a day :>).
RULZ
- You can't pick a date already chosen
- Other than normal voting habits, you can't influence the outcome
- No changing your date unless you ask permission to the RULZ-MAKER (that's me :>)
- No editing of my question. If you want to say something, use a comment or answer. I'm a nice guy, so I'll probably agree.

Mayer May 19
Minho: May 21

UPDATE: Were only ~5K away from the big moment, it's starting to look like @oldturkey03 is going to prove the prognosticators wrong!
UPDATE: OT will probably hit the milestone tomorrow...or Monday at the latest!
Is this a worthwhile discussion?
