High Hopes?

[Rhea]

I had no idea there was a give-away until I read this thread. I mostly just scroll through for topics that interest me and log-in if I can be bothered. The how many pairs of earrings do you own thread is the one that I logged in for this time. I'm sitting here staring at my earring tree willing it to hold up a big flashing number so I know. I'm in bed (midnight in London) and really can't be bothered to get out of bed just to count.

Earring threads, worth logging in for, not worth getting out of bed for.

I would be shocked if it happened before tomorrow. I think because of weather and the end of summer (which always is slower) more people are posting.

 

[Gypsy]

Tacori honey... we're only 510 posts away... you really think that will take till tomorrow?

 

[rosetta]

I just got back from a late dinner. And now I can't sleep.....

 

[centralsquare]

I am not, but I've noticed a ton more posts. Keeps me occupied so I'm not going to complain!!

 

[Tacori E-ring]

Well, there are over 500 on/lurking so if everyone posts ONE post now! I just figure people are busy on weekends (usually), East coast going to bed in a few hours or have weather related issues, so I could see it happening after midnight. West coast has an a better chance with this one.

Maybe we can do it after the 3 million posts....that would be fun!

Oh I'd enjoy that too. I have never been able to catch one. Just before or just after.

 

[slg47]

well I am going out to dinner after running my first 10k so will likely miss it.

advance congrats to the winner!

 

[wannaBMrsH]

I admit that I am posting way more than usual because it would be "nice" to win!

No shame in this game and I have YEARS before I hit 10k...I've been here since before 2009 and just hit 1k in the last month.

Same here eta except been here since 2007!

 

[MichelleCarmen]

Yeah, I plan to stay up all night. I just told my husband and he said "go get 'em." (as in win to replace my earrings!)

Also, kids are at grandma's and DH is watching a football game...not much else to do! I really would love to win, but wouldn't we all?

Tacori honey... we're only 510 posts away... you really think that will take till tomorrow?

I think now less than 157!

[Tacori E-ring]

Okay, L, you are right...it's gonna happen before midnight!

 

[Efe]

I'm just posting so we can get this 3 million thing over with and get on with the 24 hour thread

Ha, me too- just stuck inside with the crazy weather!

lol

 

[Tacori E-ring]

How funny if the whole site crashed from too many people trying to post at once. This should be interesting.

 

[Gypsy]

Okay so... the spirit of competitiveness is moving me. LOL. But on the other hand... I'm also bored. We're going to see The Help tonight and I'm hoping this is finished before I go or else I'll always wonder!

 

[tyty333]

I had no thought of posting more to win but everytime I do post I think in my head...I wonder if that could have been the
winning post? I'm probably subconsciously posting more.

 

[asymons412]

Well, yes! Hehe... but Im sure we can all blame it on Irene.

 

[Tacori E-ring]

The anticipation is making me nervous! Hope it ends quickly so we can talk about something else.

We went to a movie early on just to be a part of this nights excitment. Went to Rise of the Planet of the Apes! Now, awaiting the final countdown...less than 100 to go!

 

[Circe]

I figure a little extra incentive never hurts. That said, I'm with Shimmer and WannaBMrsH - I've been here almost 5 years, and I haven't even hit 5K! This might be my best shot.

 

[Kaleigh]

If I said what I really think?? I think it's a very nice gesture but with the past history, I think it's sellling ps out.. And NO a newbie shouldn't get this gift for making the post if they have only a few posts... Don't flame me, JMHO.



What I do have is time. I have put a lot of time into the site. Long before it was sold. Love Andrey and Ella..

I just think this is not the way PS needs to go. It's cheesy and not dignified.

 

[Gypsy]

Gypsy, your post is interesting. I still consider myself pretty new but I do think there is a new 'generation' of queen bee's around here.

I agree... and I think it's natural. There will always be Queen Bees. But let me tell you there were like 20 of them before PS 2.0 and they were unassailable. I loved them all and miss them... I think Kaleigh and Mara and T-Gal are the only ones that still post that are from the older rank and file. But we do have new ones emerging but they aren't as unassailable, I think.

and "King Bee" Kenny..

If we had King Bees it would be you and Kenny DF.
