The 200,000th Thread Anticipation, Celebration, & Physical Fights Thread

wait - 2 of the 5 rando time zones were honololu. that means honolulu came up TWICE as much as American Samoa, London, and Anchorage, and infinitely more times than the time zones that weren't selected at all.

that means that the time zone must be UTC -10, Honolulu time. let's go ahead and memorialize this breakthrough:

the 200,000th thread will be posted at 01:20, 01:50, 07:50, 16:30, or 23:00, Honolulu Time, Saturday, February 1st.

xp threads vmic though

Well yezh

it's what we will have would have wanted

The only way to save ILX is to let gabbneb and chaki back, just in time for the 200,000th thread, and then lock them into it by threadbanning them from every other thread in the past AND future, and then TARDIS SOUND EFFECT we’ll be okay until esby gets out of hand again

uh, they've both "been back" for a while -- pretty sure me and Shakey and a few others spent about an hour discussing bagels and brunch spots in SF w/chaki a few years ago ... so maybe this momentous thread is some t.s. eliot hollow men thing where it's a bunch of former "ilx bad boiz" amiably discussing bougie restaurants in gentrified cities

TWENTY ONE THREADs REMAIN

word on the street is that stet is going to post the 200K thread and use it to explain how ilx is being shut down and everyone is instructed to go to discord and twitter instead

personally, i think all of that is a distraction from the helicopters and the FEMA camps

I’m ashamed to admit this is the first time I’ve ever watched that video straight through without looking away from the screen

Do we do the fireworks at 200,000 or 200,001? I don’t recal a thread zero.

As of February 2013, ILX is hosted on a server (paid for by board users) in Canada. Running costs are paid by yearly funding drives.

Currently, the board is about to celebrate its 200,000th thread. However, debate has emerged to ascertain whether this count is accurate, as there is speculation that this excludes deleted threads, as well as threads counted on the temporary board.

Other posters have noted that the count may be suspect due to the repeated recoding of the site. The site has put its 200,000th thread celebration on hold until it can figure this out.

it may be written that this was the incident that sparked one of the many, many physical fights on the 200,000th celebration thread.

NINETEEN THREADS REMAIN!!

for example, i see that "StickyEmotions" has been toot tooting around in the Felching article as well

i'm activating a cyberhack squad in a bunker under the ocean

Do we do the fireworks at 200,000 or 200,001? I don’t recal a thread zero.

at 200,000!

and here is my argument: we're not celebrating the exact passing of 200,000 years. we are celebrating a big dumb round number. and that big dumb round number is 200,000, not 200,001

lol of course I added it. interestingly it hasn't been reverted yet. once we get to that thread, I can link here as the source.

nah, I like it! it's a little part of ILX, out there

well-phrased edit. good work all around
