Oh Yeah I know I was talking about internetz torture thats all, I thought you might like that, the dissapointment in him when hes been allowed back on thinking hes free again, and then all of a sudden he gets shoved back down the well.

I didn't take any pleasure in banning him - it was a hard decision.

SPD and I tried to bring him to California back in 2003... fucker's expensive

Lol, sorry I'm being dick.

ban everyone

launch the website?

watmm meet up, somewhere in the middle of the atlantic so it's convieniant for everyone.

invite perry to come back?

theocide

edit: i see i am not alone in the suggestion, my opinion stands

a UK watmmers trip down the pub wouldnt be hard either. stage it wherever the center of the UK (perhaps the very centre, wherever that may be) and whoever wants to go goes. id definitely be down for this because im near the centre anyway.

joyrex, how long do you reckon we've got before the 1000000th post arrives?

when WATMM hits 1,000,000 posts, The Shimmering Hour will be released.

we could certainly hire somebody to dj for a party. im sure some of the more musically prolific members have contacts

i know Pat Sharp...

could you get Pat Sharp to host a special watmm edition of Fun House?

Well, I've begun work on it (really!) and I dunno how long it will take to get to 1,000,000 - if it's about 3 months give or take, perhaps!

only if we can raise about twenty quid...

I bet Joyrex will celebrate the 1,000,000th post with his wife and his 5 children around a lovely chocolate cake while playing his electronic music rarities out loud.

dammit, that's another dream shattered by the credit crunch...

Let me see if there is a way I can find out the average posts per day overall

i think we should guess and the closest wins a big jar of sweets. i guess the average is 303.

Joyrex you should totally give us the full versions of those unreleased afx tracks you gave us snippets of last year !

OK, very interesting - in December 2008, we did 22,343 posts, October we did 24,924, and November we did 20,229 - that's an average of 22,500 posts a month.

Now, we have 875,267 posts, and 40,334 topics, so to reach 1,000,000 posts, it's gonna take us about 5 and a half months to reach 1,000,000 posts. Now, that's just posts, so considering the combined number of posts plus topics, we'll probably get there a bit sooner - say in about 4 months or so.

fantastic.
