[QUOTE=satootoko]in a couple of ways.
1) I set a closing time for the 20,000th Post contest that turned out to be way after the time of the post.
2) I started the contest a couple of days after the post had been made.
When I started typing this posting the total number of posts, according to the upper right corner of the "home" screen, was 20,065, but there had actually been 20,311 postings made.
I don't know the technical reasons for the disconnect, but there it is.
