As JacKatMtn did previously with the well received "4 MILLIONTH Post Countdown", I think it's about the right time to start predictions for the 5,000,000th post.

As of this posting the total number of posts is:

4,840,579

(ATS Stats)

I think it will probably be in less than a month and maybe sooner, as the traffic is ever increasing at the moment.

I'll be first to guess at: Wednesday, October 8th

So, what's everyone elses prediction?

Go...

I hate Wednesdays...

I'll go for Tuesday 7th.

My guess on the subject:

Russia / Georgia.

Good idea Xeros.

I was going to do one of these but was waiting for the 4.85 millionth post.

October 11th would be my guess.

Oh this looks like fun. Let me take a guess.

I will say Monday October 13th.

I hope I get it right!

I predict that at 3:12 AM PDST on October 21, 2008, the 5 millionth post will be made on ATS. It will be from an anonymous poster and will be in the topic Does George Bush Eat Children? Upon the anonymous poster clicking the -POST- button, a microscopic black hole will form in Skeptic Overlord's left armpit, eventually absorbing the entire planet and ending life as we know it to exist.

But seriously, I'll guess Oct 21, 2008.

Edited to correct date.

I'm thinking October 4, around 8PM Central time, by an anonymous poster about the Illuminati.

That's when the post will be made, not when it'll be okayed or not okayed by mods

October 15th around 0230GMT
