On the front page of the forum, it says that DCUM's member have posted a total of 1,653 messages.

Now, this figure can't be correct

For me it says:

Mystery solved. We have two servers that load balance the traffic. One of them was saying 1,836 messages. I restarted that one and now it agrees that there are 4.5 million messages.

Any chance there could be a contest for the 5 millionth post?

I realize that "Anonymous" would be the winner of said contest and that the only glory from this win would be the fleeting chance to say "Yeah! I am a winner".

I'll see if I can come up with a way to detect the winner beyond staying up all night hitting "refresh" on my browser.

Doesn't everyone on DCUM stay up all night hitting "refresh" on their browser?

Ha! Only during my nursing/sleep training/teething months and random periods of children's stuffed noses.
