No, not a stupid question (I don't think it is anyway :tongue:). As far as I know, nope, it hasn't - not on this forum anyway

So after 2 years approx -17,000 has been reached, which means 8,500 in one year, so to get to a million, at this rate, would take 120,000 years to the nearest thousand years. WOAH!!!! :eek:

It is a shame how slow these threads are going. If you look back, a lot of this thread is 2014 too so it got really slow but now we're at a regular-ish pace (which is still very slow). We're mainly focusing on the main counting thread, CTAM. It'd be great to see you there :smile:

Just realised that this thread did not start from 0 but approximately -10,000, so in 2 years 7000 has been increased or decreased in this case, so in one year 3500 has decreased(because we're going backwards),so at this rate -1,000,000 would take 286,000 years to the nearest thousand years, but we can take off 3 years(to the nearest year) because -10,000 had already been reached, making the total 285,997 years!!!!!!!!

Please edit to -17254 :wink:

But the thread before this did start at 0 and thay was 2 years ago too :tongue: It depends who's here - there used to be quite a few people on here but now, not so many. Sometimes when it feels like it's picking up again, it seems to get ignored :frown:

I know but at this rate it would've taken 3 years so I took off 3 years.(Makes little sense, I know).:tongue:

Haha, what I meant was, at this rate it would take us -286,000 years, but that's if we started from 0, which this thread didn't, so to compensate for the -10,000 we already had, I took off 3 years,because at this rate it would've taken 3 years to reach 10,000, making the total 285,997 years.

I should've taken off 2 years, as you said that it took the previous thread 2 years instead of 3. Making the total 285,998 years.

So if we continue at this rate, which is hopefully increased, we will reach -1,000,000 in 285,998 years.

I'm sorry if I made this too confusing, if you're still confused, don't worry, I won't ramble on any further, any more. :smile: :tongue:
