The January 2022 Winter Connect-a-Thon is in progress! It's been almost 24 hours since we started and people are chatting, adding profiles, and having fun!

If you have questions you can ask them here.

Here's your chance to guess what the total will be at the end of the 72-hour weekend. This post will remain open until 8pm (EST) to give people a chance to guess. The winner will get a WikiTree t-shirt.

closed with the note: Thanks for your guesses! Continue to have fun with the Connect-a-Thon!

After about 13 hours we have about 29,500, or about 2269 per hr. So, at that rate, over 72 hours, we will end up with 163,368. So 163,368. (That’s a bit higher than the other guesses, but we can be optimistic).
by Richard Rosenberger G2G6 Mach 3 (31.3k points)
Ok, I was a bit confused. Since it was about 9 AM when I looked, it was about 25 hrs, not about 13 (it started at 8 AM, not 8 PM), so about 29,500 profiles in about 25 hrs is about 1,180 per hr, so at that rate in 72 hrs there will be about 84,960. That is not quite so optimistic.
So, after about 49 hrs, we have about 57,180, or about 1,167 per hr. At that rate, 72 hrs will give us about 84,024.

Okay. With Greg doing the calculations, the best guess I can give you is we are going to top 90,000 this time. Go big or go home. But, I'd be happy if we get 100k! Let's do this! Sleep is for conformists!
