P.S. Am I the only one seeing the logarithmic trend and the impossibility of reaching single digits anytime soon? :)

crypt of cthulhu - 304,000

next > 273,600

10 days ago we were on 3,000,000, so Ill estimate we'll be at single digits in 50 days = 7 weeks = August 29. I figure 10 days per power of ten plus a bit because of increasing difficulty. But maybe more people will contribute when it gets lower so it will go faster. We'll see.

If we were racing count to a million, we'd be 1000 to 1 favorites. :D
