19th Edition of Record Day - August the 17th, 2024

Post by DaveRattlehead »

It's the most wonderful time of the year. No, it ain't Christmas... We're getting closer and closer to the 19th Edition of Record Day! As always, here's a reminder of the rules:
Hunchman801 wrote: Tue Jun 16, 2009 8:20 pm Each year since 2006, we organise a posts in a day record at PC. The whole thing is quite simple: it consists in posting the most possible messages in a predetermined time span of 24 hours. The goal is not only to break a new record every year or bring more activity to the forums, but also to shuffle our topics in order to bring new discussions for the following year.

This is not a spam contest, and useless messages are obviously not welcome. However, the special conditions during the record day will be the cause of a certain leniency, especially as concerns old topics, which can be bumped freely.
It's a very fun day and a great opportunity to interact in a more direct way with the members of the Pirate-Community. The absolute record was set in 2015 (32252 posts). It's very complicated to beat it, but who knows, maybe we'll have some nice surprises this year :)

Now, the tings! You'll see this is gonna be an absolute madness. Each post is worth 15 tings within the given time span, but you can also get bonus tings: 1500 for participating, 1500 for beating one's previous posts in a day record, and 3000 Tings for the winner. Not bad, huh? ;)

Record Day is planned to be on a Saturday during the summer, from 22:00 (UTC) Friday to 22:00 (UTC) the following day. You can see a poll with different dates set between July and September. Let us know when you can participate! We'll do this on the most voted date.

Hope to see you around! ;)

It's crazy tha Record Day is approaching again, this year felt shorter. Any date should be ok for me as long as it is on a Saturday.

If the year has passed quickly, that's a good sign :)

Last year was a blast. I'd sign right now for this year's experience to be similar :mryellow:

This year did feel shorter... but in my case it was mainly due to most of it being devoured by our difficult house move! :oops2:

I'm sure this year's edition will be really fun too, I wonder if it'll be as active as the previous one was! :hehe:

This year DEFINITELY felt shorter. I find it hard to believe the 18th edition was already 10 months ago, and I joined a year ago :waaahhh:

Yay! I can't tell for sure regarding July and August as I have some treks planned but I don't know when I'll go just yet (might depend on the weather). I do know for sure I can't make it on August 3rd (mountaineering trip), August 24th (wedding) and September 14th (trip to Portugal).

Probably the safest for me would be August 31st or September 7th. 🤔

Even though August has not come, I want to congratulate you, Hunchman801!

A couple of months ago I went to a wedding where the fiancé chose as his entrance music an orchestra version of Dragon Ball GT's intro... Who knows, maybe a Rayman song doesn't look bad. I'm just giving ideas :lol:

A friend of mine chose Bob Marley as his entrance music, so nothing surprises me anymore. :lol:
