Notes:

1) There is an unusually large jump from 72 to 73. The anomaly may be partly explained by the fact that Mike Haven edited out the numbers in two posts between 72 and 73.

2) Assani forgot to post numbers two times since his countdown started. So in addition to the two edited Mike Haven posts there are missing 4 numbers.

3) There seems to be little correlation between posting time and the pace of the countdown.

4) .CSV or other formats available upon request.

5) This is completely uninteresting.

6) I can't believe I wasted an hour on this.

zeturd,

That is remarkable.

Re: Assani Fisher countdown speculation thread
 

Awesome!

I definitely want the .csv file please.

Can you post a link for download or do I need to PM you my email?

I suppose the easiest way is to just send you the raw string via PM and then you can copy&paste and save it as a .CSV file. Do you want dates included, and if so, in any particular format?

I do want the dates, but I don't know what format will go from text to Excel easiest. Also, your time zone (GMT -1 or -2?) and AF is Vegas I guess?

Norway is GMT+1 and Las Vegas is PT I guess. I'm pretty sure that means we're 8 hours ahead. Not sure if that can be converted easily in Excel...

Anyway, I'm sending you a PM with the data that you should be able to copy and paste into notepad and save as a .CSV file. The dates might not show up correctly when you open it with excel, but that should be fixable by changing the formatting of the column to "date".

how can anyone not find that onslaught thread hilarious?

[/ QUOTE ]

I think the idea behind it (to play a hudge joke on the forums and waste everyone's time) is pretty awesome but he overdid it imo. IIRC he posted the onslaught thread 3 separate times in OOT. [censored] originally gave assani ** for posting it the third time, but removed them as soon as assani let him in on the joke.

Posting it once was great but 3 (or more) times was just overkill imo.

Re: Assani Fisher countdown speculation thread
 

Can I get the graph plotted as a function of time rather than post number?

done. uploading it as we speak.

Note, I took the hopeful approach that this is ending at 100,000. (You don't want to see it plotted with the x-axis down at 0.

Ah, I actually tried that. For some reason I can't get excel to recognize hours/minutes in the date column when creating a diagram, so I only managed to get the steps on the x-axis to come out as whole days, which really isn't that helpful. I'm kind of fed up with this now, but maybe Troll will be able to whip up something; just sent him the .CSV data.

EDIT: Troll to the rescue!
