It seems a LOCK that 25 people will hit a milli, and if ANY of the 3 people at 800k+ are conscious, at least one of them will.
Honestly, I would think 31-40 has a greater likelihood than 21-25, with 26-30 being the sweet spot.
There are this inactive players on the first three pages of the leaderboard - be careful how you count them in these small numbers & high leaderboard questions.
It usually helps to check their quarterly earnings.
Barring some outrageous stretch of miracle predictions by at least 2 people, there is no way in hell it will go over 25. I was totally wrong.
kennyk 972K (should make it)
zvassil 932K (will make it)
mickeydaniel 818K (maybe - needs higher pace)
erik 767K (not likely)
sharon91977 763K (not likely)
drzinternet 685K (not likely)
my guess 24
Congrats to zvassil
Congrats to kennyk
mickeydaniel 862K (looks better maybe )
still no #26 in sight
