Marc Approaching 50,000 posts -How do we celebrate this achievement ?

Hi everyone, I thought Someone should bring this up as Marc is approaching his 50,000th post. The first ever CW poster to achieve this great feat. I have been breaking my head trying to think of how we could celebrate this on CW and as to how we should fete the guy on his great Landmark/Milestone ...

I think it would be a shame if we failed to recognise his great contribution to this forum.

I have some ideas on how we could reward him ....

How about giving him a bonus 20,000 or 30,000 posts in recognition or Making him the Lifetime President of CW (at least until he is overtaken by Richard in 2049 ) or how about canonising him... He could hereafter be referred to as St.Marc the patron Saint of CW .. (I foresee St.Richard of CW in the not too distant horizon too ) .

We could also run our own little competitions on predicting the exact date this might happen. The winner amongst us could be rewarded with a 10,000 post bonus as a prize....Anyway these are my thoughts...

We really need to get cracking on planning for this approaching Milestone ....so that Celebrations can take place to honour Marc...

Maybe when you reach 50,000 posts you should have to start at Zero again

We'll go to all this trouble and he'll leave before he gets fifty thousand.

Seriously though we have to do something good.

Me too, TBH. I generally make 1,000 in 10 days or so.

I've made over 10,000 since my most recent comeback which was predicted with such accuracy by someone.
