I hear that's because Bernie Madoff took all his money and now he has to work 17,624 times as hard as he did before.

 

[Neil.T]

Yep, all $17,625 billion of it. (Is that even a real number? )

There's a house for sale in Lake Balboa, CA. Only $599,950. The address is 17626 Gilmore Street. Might cost a bit for a removals van though

 

[Ian Wolf]

I wonder if the residents over the road in 17,627 are envious or not?

 

[Shadow Cat]

Thats taken some dedication to get to 17,628 could have earned the $599,950 needed in the time its taken

Man, been a long time since this thread was used.

And now we won't hear of it for another two years.

My maths is terrible, but...

*concentrates hard; counts on fingers, muttering *

Dividend by sixty, that's.... minutes...

Divide again... That makes... Is that right?

That's almost...!

17,633 seconds!!!

(I told you my maths was bad. )

 

[João Gomes]

You guys will never make it.

Spoiler: Heavy spoilers for this thread, read at your own risk, it's not my responsibility, I swear. At this point I'm just writing stuff to make this description unreasonably long, thank you.

17634/1000000 chance, at most.

 

[Captaaainuniverse]

I'm 17,635% sure we'll get sick.of this thread before we get there again

 

[Neil.T]

Well, I intend to adopt a falsely positive outlook on our chances. In the words of any football manager: "At the end of the day, it's a game of two halves. Go out there and give it 17,636 percent."

Their maths might be even worse than mine.

 

[Girls with Guns]

So, only 982,363 more posts to go! 1.7637% complete... Yay! Almost there!

When I was in elementary school, probably about 4th or 5th grade, myself and three of the neighborhood kids I hung out with spent the entire summer break playing the card game Rummy, with our goal being to get to a million points for the winner. It took us all summer and playing a couple hours almost every day, but we did make it to a million just a few days before school started in the fall. I ended up the lucky winner, lol. I wish I still had the score sheets we used to keep track of all the games!

[Neil.T]

Ahh, from a visual novel? The 17,641st to see release?

 

[Shadow Cat]

I would play more Visual Novels but dont have a spare 17,642 seconds at the moment

 

[Neil.T]

Especially not when you want to play all 17,643 routes.
