There's not enough room for two one million page threads in this town

@Kitalpha Hart: I thought the math for this would be easier but I think I just took the stupid idiot route to get the 100 people numbers and probably got it all wrong lol

For 100 people it would be at least 46.3 days

For 1 person it would be at least 1,157.5 days

@Lucifera: I got a cute little tin set of Jane Davenport watercolors from michaels and replaced a couple of the little cakes in there with tubed Cotman colors. Absolutely just 👨‍🍳👌 and convenient as all hell

So far on this website I've only seen one thread aiming to get 1 million pages. I frequently spam on that one, and I began to think:

How long would it actually take to reach the goal of one million pages?

I'm going to base my calculations on a few assumptions:
1. This page is starting from scratch
2. There are five extremely dedicated users willing to spam day and night to reach the goal
3. Each post is perfectly timed
4. The end goal is to get the first post on the 1 millionth page
5. This is in the undercurrent

We know that there's a 5 second cooldown between posts, but since I've assumed there's five people dedicated, it comes out to 1 post per 1 second rather than .2 posts per second.

Givens:
1. 20 posts per page
2. 1 post per second
3. 60 s = 1 m, 60 m = 1 h
4. 23 h, 59 m, 59 s = 1 d

Variables:
s = # of seconds
p = # of posts
d = # of days
n = final number of days

Now the actual math:

(20 x 999,999) + 1 = p = s

s = 19,999,980 seconds

d = (((23*60)*60) + (59*60) + 59) seconds
d = ((82,800) + (3,540) + 59) seconds
d = 86,399 seconds

s / d = n
19,999,980 / 86,399 = n

n ≈ 231.5 days

So the final, (approx.) minimum time for a completely fresh and new 1mil thread on the Undercurrent with 5 dedicated posters:

231 and a half days

Also we would hit quite a few post milestones on here in the process.

This info is basically useless but I was bored and finally figured out what to do with all the algebra I remember from my freshman year of high school. Please correct me if I messed anything up! I will gladly go back and adjust my calculations if there was an error I made. Feel free to ask questions about this if you have any :)
