Real simple rules. Guess the date, only 1 guess & no edits. ricko is allowed to alter the outcome & free to play along
.
Sorry I don't have any prizes, this is just for fun. Maybe ricko will kick in a buck a post and do a 75K grand prize!
.
My guess is 8/1/2020

I will not play, that would not be fair....but a fun idea....and no, $75K is not a prize I would offer....Too many parties and things I could use that money for... Cheers, RickO

This afternoon.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
In the opening post, it did not say $75K, it just said, 75K! So, I expect you get to choose what you want to make up a total of 75K of objects -- maybe a couple of boxes of staples could do it!

Ah come on Ricko, I gave you $500,000 worth of coins! Wouldn't one coin be alright to give away? Lol.

You could offer the prize just to get everyone's hopes up, then get banned on post 74,999.

I think the universe would implode! Ricko likes coins that are free of the devil's tarnish with passion but somehow finds kind things to say to just about everyone. It's quite impressive!

Ricko is a true gentleman. 8/6 , and it should become a national holiday.
At the rate he's moving; don't be surprised to see him reach 100,000 posts before too long. LOL

9/9/2020.
witty quote goes here
He's been slacking for years ... we all thought he going to be the first over 100. K back in 2012. Did anyone ever catch or pass him?
Heck if he keeps slacking he might not make the 75. K mark this year!!
Okay ... let me try ... needs 487 posts
So 487 / FFR = DRAG
where FFR = Factor oF Ricko (which is based on a number that makes sense to me. only because it's @ricko )
and DRAG = Days Required to reAch Goal
So, if 487 / FFR = DRAG is added to today's date and time, then that would be sometime on or about
Saturday, October 3rd
and if that ain't a WAG, I don't know what is

October 31st.
I knew it would happen.
Forget 75,000. I'm looking to 100,000. I know he's going to do it. Hope I'm here to see it. When it happens......party time!
Just let me know, I'll put the U. S. Flag out.
What?
8/28
9-13 is the date. The clock is ticking..... Peace Roy

since nobody has mentioned it, I will be the first --- RickO has already passed 75,000 posts. many newer members aren't aware that the PCGS Forum software was updated in 2001 and all members at that time were "re-joined" but lost all there data. our friend and constant companion is, I believe, a Charter member or darn close to it. his noted date of joining is stated as February 24, 2001 4:16AM but isn't accurate.
RickO will have to chime in about when he really joined and what his deleted post count may be.
at any rate, my guess is August 18, 2020.
BTW, I just looked at RickO's member page and he has visited the forum 7,777 times. that doesn't take into account the posts and visits he lost with the forum update in 2001, but it's a significant number and pretty cool.

We all lost post counts when they shut down the Open Forum as well.
I think I lost 75% of mine that bleak day.
