RATS!!! Missed it by two on the high side and four on the low side. Maybe we'll catch 1,000,000

Can you get the first WM with five digits in the code?

WM10000

Have those crafty Germans invented a time warp that they are keeping to themselves? Is there a peculiar quirk about the WM site that escapes my grasp? Have we entered the "Twilight Zone"? Is this a relativistic effect? ... ...The mind reels...

 

Sounds like an xbox game I've played. Black Op Zombies?

Dunno nothin' 'bout no xbox games, so can't respond to that.

 

Just noticed your most recent icon though.

 

Kentucky Fried Chicken << >> Virginia Fried Possum?

11 secret herbs and spices too, but it's also about the pressure fryer. Original KFC

We are, too. We could have had something like a MacDonald's Wi-Fi in that slot instead. Really glad to have seen that it was a good one and by someone like fi67. Don't let it go to your head, though, fi67. In life, many things are the result of good planning and many are the result of dumb luck. This was the latter. :)

 

I am, however, still in a quandary over this. Could some enlightened IT type explain to me how Andreas can be at the WM home page at 7/20/2017 2:12:12 AM (Pacific) and see 750,000 waymarks, yet when I open the same page at 20/2017 2:55:30 AM (Pacific), over 43 minutes later, I see 749965 Waymarks?

I know very well that this is not a personal merit, but I still like it, especially that it is a very rare category.

 

When it comes to the discrepancy in the displayed numbers, I have no explanation. I know little of the IT internals of the site, but if it was my job to fix this, the first thing I would check was if there are different SQL cache settings on the two front end web servers.

Please focus in this thread on our great milestone 750,000. Thank you!

 

Sorry about that,.... I know that Waymarking is not about the numbers or grids to me, but I totally forgot what the topic was and got carried away with KFC.:o

I have WM'd there in Corbin at the original KFC and plan on visiting again soon.

Anyway, congratulations on the 750,000 milestone and finally making it to the top. I think you called it my conspiracy theory, but you finally made it. Maybe with your leadership WM'n will soon reach 1,000,000 WM's and host it's own HQ sponsored event?:D

As a matter of fact I do. Don't know why, as I never chose to ignore it. Now, how do I UNignore it? Don't see a method for doing that.

This is off topic; but briefly:
Use the Ignore List link on the right where all the links are listed -- in the Category Searches: area.
Click on the category name which is a link.
When the page comes up, you should see a thumbs-down symbol in a little red box with the words Ignore above it.
Click the hand.  Wait a bit, just like when choosing to make a category a favorite (thumbs-up symbol elsewhere).
The hand should change color from yellow or orange to clear.

Here we are on the 5th Annual Waymarking Day with nearly 760,000 Waymarks.  Go for it!

What're y'all doing to celebrate.  Unfortunately I am swamped with farm work today, but I've done my share of reviewing for this morning, anyway.  Maybe I can get away later this afternoon and do some Waymarking.

It's also National Nut Bread day. Go figure.;)
