Sort:

     We had a similar contest to predict the 1,000,000th member here at Chess.com.  Since we are now at 1,978,343 members as of 12:47P.M. EST
it is time to guess again!!!
      So what is your prediction?  What date and at what time will the
2,000,000th person join Chess.com as a new member?

2010 of course :-)

There aren't many guesses so far.  The 1,000,000th member thread was
quite popular.

Some things are so special that they can never be repeated.

Will it be in June or in July?

I think we should talk about Waffles.

why ha?

I'm guessing the 29th June at around 15:00. This is assuming we don't do any more mergers between now and then...

EDIT- 15:00 BST, so 14:00 GMT.

Wow, it seems like only yesterday we did the 1,000,000th member thread.  Those mergers really change things don't they.  I guess the big question is: Will all of those duplicate Facebook accounts be deleted/merged before or after we reach the 2,000,000 mark?  And if after, are we going to be guessing again once we've dropped below 2 mil?  And when will all the igoogle accounts get merged in?  How many different members will have the distinction of being the 2,000,000th member?  Wink

If nothing else changes merger wise in the next couple weeks, I'll guess the 4th of July 17:00 UTC.

When will the 2,000,000th member join ?

     Today will be the last day to guess so cast your vote before midnight.  I wonder
why there was such interest in the 1,000,000th member and just a moderate
response to the 2,000,000th member?

     As of 1:47P.M. EST there are 1,990,865 members.

     So in 4 days 1 hour(97 hours) we added 12,522 new members.  This comes out to
about 3,100 new members per day. 
     This means our 2,000,000th member will join at 12:31P.M. EST on Thurday, July 1st.
