978,829 * 6 hours until this countdown is finally done probably.

So...
5872974/24 is 244707.25
244707.25/364.25 is 669.971937029
...
670 years
So yeah we'll never ever get done in our lifetimes and by then this game will be started anew somewhere else.

Even if there was 1 post per hour..
978,829/24 = 40784.5416667
40784.5416667/365.25 = 111.661989505
...
111.7 years.
Fun times!

How about one post per minute?
978,829/60 = 16313.8166667
16313.8166667/24 = 16313.8166667
16313.8166667/365.25 = 1.85976022192
...
2 years!
Like that'll happen though.

Whoops! Forgot to decrement the count!

Number to use: 978,828

Edit: So one post is 0.00068446269th of a year if there's one post every six hours.

Who said math isn't fun?

[Mahonri Violist]

The obvious solution is just to do 978,827 posts a year. Then we'll get done with it by next year.

[Drakeburn]

978,826 snow flakes that are destined to fall in December!

[ChrisClark13]

978,825 posts left to go!

To finish this by the end of the year, we would need to make 32627.5 posts each day. Or about 9 posts a second.

We are also going to need about 652 more threads.

978,824 more people until armageddon.

[Ninjaman]

978,823 days until eternal extinction.
