We would have long since passed the Bismarck thread if The Shortening had not occurred.

Nope - not sure, but (iirc) that was the number that i heard batted around BEFORE The Thread got so huge... it seems as The Thread has gotten bigger, the number of posts in The Bismarck thread has gotten bigger. The page number for Bismar(c)k generally offered was in the 200's - and if it was 299 pages, that would be under 9000 posts (since there are 30 posts/page). So i THINK it was around 8000 or so ...

Status: offline 		And, of course, there's no way out of town for the night, so I'll have to stay in Innsmouth's only "hotel" with an innkeeper named Gillman (ga-harf!), who slaughters his tennants (at least those out of the "outsider" variety) with a meatcleaver.

Run AWAY!!!
