The title says it all, post your guesses here. I'll offer up a L$1000 prize to whoever is closest.

Determination of the actual time will be by announcement by LL, or the time of a post in this thread with a unaltered screenshot of the main page of secondlife.com or the viewer login page, showing a Total resident number greater than 5,000,000.

Post the day and time (in SLT, hours and minutes only, no seconds or nanoseconds!) of your guess.

First person to pick a particular time then owns that time, no splitting of prizes.

One guess per avatar.

Any editing of a post for ANY reason will render that guess null and void.

Anyone wishing to add to the pot should contact me in-world and pay me L$ or send over transferable items that I can send to the winner.

I will judge who the winner is and my decision will be final, this is all in fun after all!

Good luck guessing!!!

When a Linden enters 5000000 into the input box.

I'm waiting for the day when that number is greater than the world's population. Then we'll know for sure that it's nothing but a number!!

Haha good point! I don't think they remove deleted accounts from the total number either.

as soon as their fake counter reaches 3,100 or something like that :D

SECOND LIFE HOME PAGE CURRENT SCRIPT
================================
var fake_counter = 3,000;

page_load()
{
for every pageRefresh() do
{
increment( fake_counter by 100 )
}

write Total Residents: fake_counter * 1,600;
write Logged In Last 60 Days: fake_counter * 550;
write Online Now: fake_counter * 12;
write US$ Spent Last 24h: fake_counter * 540;
write LindeX Activity Last 24h: fake_counter * 80
}

==============================

SL will hit 5 million registrations sometime today. As to how many are real accounts... divide by at least 20.

6 PM SLT, March 26th (Today) is my guess for when the counter will hit 5 million.

And I would say it's more like divide the total by 100 to get the number of unique residents, who are neither Bots nor alts of other Players.
