We haven't had a sweepstake for several months and now seems a good time to have a go.
Post your best guess as to when (not if) we get to number one in the UK for SETI. Give a date and an hour when you think we'll pass.
I'll start with 6-7AM October 25th
No prizes. Just the kudos of getting it right!
Using last 24hrs: Approx pass time: 11.28 days (02:00 - 26th October).
So that no-one tries to guess 1 hour before we do pass let's get the guesses in before October 20th.
separate poll for fun only just to see what people think.
Poll runs for 6 days (October 20th).

Hi all,
Seems
no one guessed that we'd be #1 UK ranked SETI team before 26th October.....
(Even I said 30th Oct, so no prizes on this poll...!)

Tim

Hi all,
Well, now we've got Darrens stats that update every 10, 5 or even 1 minutes (as required!) I think the least you could do is to be a bit more specific. 8)
And please state the time zone.....! (GMT, UTC, or whatever) :D
Me - I now reckon 23rd Oct at 20:20 BST

Tim
Edited: To correct the timing.

It was every minute but that was just rediculous.
When we get down to under 250 I'll do it every minute again.
Seti will be pleased when we pass and stop killing their server
