Keeping track of progress!
Day 1: Panda issues challenge. Page moves from 3200 to 3212. 12 pages. Not bad for a partial day.
Day 2: 3212 to 3227. 15 pages. Better than day one numerically, but not very promising, as it was a full day. Usage of games introduced late this day.
Day 3: 3227 to 3251. 24 pages. Big improvement. More people learning about challenge.
Day 4: 3251 to 3276. 25 pages. Very small improvement.
Day 5: 3276 to 3320. 44 pages, our first day meeting (and exceeding) our daily page goal! Woot!
Day 6: 3320 to 3336. 16 pages. Lots of backsliding! We shall return tomorrow and do better!
Day 7: 3336 to 3368. 32 pages. Double yesterday's pages! Yes! We didn't hit the goal, but we got a lot closer!
Day 8: 3368 to 3388. 20 pages. Half of our goal, but better than some days. We'll do better tomorrow.
Day 9: 3388 to 3427. 39 pages. Just one page shy of our goal pages per day! Awesome!
Day 10: 3427 to 3452. 25 pages. Not our goal pages, but some nice movement. Let's ramp it up tomorrow!
Day 11: 3452 to 3472. 20 pages. We slowed down! We'll need to make a major push tomorrow to double our posts and meet the goal!
Day 12: 3472 to 3515. 43 pages. Woohoo! We exceeded the goal for the second time! Let's see if we can break 45 tomorrow!
Day 13: 3515 to 3547. 32 pages. Higher than our current average, lower than our goal. First day our average (26.7) would get us to 5k in October!
Day 14: 3547 to 3601. 54 pages. Holy. Crud. We win the interwebz today. Not only more than met our goal, but beat our record by 10 pages.
Day 15: 3601 to 3631. 30 pages. Above our current average, though below our goal. Still, not bad for the slump that comes after great days.
Day 16: 3631 to 3663. 32 pages. Not our goal, but not bad! Added bonus? Our pages left to go today: 1337. No, not kidding. XD
Day 17: 3663 to 3692. 29 pages. Lower than yesterday, and shy of our goal. Still just slightly above the daily average.
Day 18: 3692 to 3722. 30 pages. One week above average streak, but we need to get it higher if we want to finish in time. Aim for 40!
Day 19: 3722 to 3752. 30 pages. We need to bump it up just a bit, if we want to win this. Not backsliding is good, but we can do better.
Day 20: 3752 to 3802. 50 pages. Woot! Our fourth time getting over 40! We did great, and we are now 1/3 of the way to our end goal!
Day 21: 3802 to 3840. 38 pages. Pretty good! Let's keep posting like this!
Day 22: 3840 to 3875. 35 pages. Keep up the posting everyone! We're getting there!
Day 23: 3875 to 3906. 31 pages. Hit a bit of a slump, but we kept above our average.
Day 24: 3906 to 3937. 31 pages. Still caught in the slump, but managing to keep above our average by the skin of our teeth.
Day 25: 3937 to 3971. 34 pages. Our above average post streak is now at two weeks! We might struggle some days, but we haven't fallen behind!
Day 26, mid-day: 3971 to 4000. 29 pages, still in progress. 4k reached on Talk Like A Pirate Day, mateys! Let's break some records!
Day 26: 3971 to 4041. 70 pages. Oh yeah! Talk Like A Pirate Day was very good for us! More posts than the last two days combined, new record & hit 4k.
Day 27: 4041 to 4074. 33 pages. Not bad for a slump day after breaking a record. Maintaining our above average streak. We can do better though.
Day 28: 4074 to 4107. 33 pages. Today we finally reached the point where we have more pages done than pages to do!
Day 29: 4107 to 4141. 34 pages. Another day maintaining our streak. Let's see if we can have a major movement day tomorrow!
Day 30: 4141 to 4177. 36 pages. Better than yesterday! If we can do a few more pages per day, we can finish in time for mew & Nana bdays!
Day 31: 4177 to 4214. 37 pages. We're doing pretty good! We've done 1k pages since the start of this challenge! Keep on posting, people!
Day 32: 4214 to 4249. 35 pages. Above our average, but not very impressive. Let's shoot for 4.3 tomorrow!
Day 33: 4249 to 4278. 29 pages. Our 22 day above average streak was broken today. We fell short by 4 pages. *sad music* RIP posting streak.
Day 34: 4278 to 4314. 36 pages. New streak: Day 1. Lets start posting more! Mew and Nana would love birthday customs!
Day 35: 4314 to 4354. 40 pages. Yes! We hit our goal! Great job, thread! Keep up the awesome work!
Day 36: 4354 to 4387. 33 pages. Another day of progress! We managed to stay above average again! Thanks for posting, everyone!
Day 37: 4387 to 4411. 24 pages. Way under what we need. Come post people! We have to make up for this tomorrow!
Day 38: 4411 to 4448. 37 pages. Much better! Let's try to get to 40 tomorrow!
Day 39: 4448 to 4474. 26 pages. People, we are backsliding. Come on, I know post fatigue is setting in, but we are almost there!
Day 40: 4474 to 4494. 20 pages. We're so close, but we're slowing down so much! At this rate, the last 40 days of work will be for nothing!
Day 41: 4494 to 4530. 36 pages. Nice job everyone! We're just two weeks away from being done! See you again tomorrow!
Day 42: 4530 to 4550. 20 pages. Not very good. We were at least not in the teens, but we are struggling for every page.
Day 43: 4550 to 4568. 18 pages. First time we've backslid to the teens since day 6, and our fourth lowest day, including the first partial day.
Day 44: 4568 to 4601. 33 pages. Much better than yesterday! We'll still need a lot more posts, but the end is getting close. Just 400 pages to go!
Day 45: 4601 to 4639. 38 pages. Awesome day guys! BW2 chatter really helped move the thread today!
Day 46: 4639 to 4663. 24 pages. Looks like people spent more time playing Pokemon than chatting about it today!
Day 47: 4663 to 4698. 35 pages. Great work everyone! If we really knuckle down and have a few good post days, we can wrap this up in under a week!
