Don't forget to read the T & C's, too. Nothing onerous in them, but it avoids upsets later.
Initial predictions - just straws in the wind really - are that it will hit mid afternoon. Or late afternoon. Or early afternoon. Probably.
Anyone care to guess the EXACT time?
2:29pm
"Right now, it is Hand # 989,935,974 (as at 10.44am)."
And exactly 30 minutes later, it was #989,939,900
So, 4,000 in 30 minutes, & another 60,000 hands to go.
In theory, that means another 7.5 hours, but it's not linear, as traffic increases in the afternoon, & as the 990 milly mark approaches.
No help at all, then.
At 11.44, it was 989,944,382.
Quite an acceleration in that half an hour, it went up by around 4,500.
That acceleration should continue, as Team Lunch Break arrive.
The acceleration continues, Team Lunch Break are on the case, at 12.14 it was 989,949,873, so 5,500 in that 30 minutes.
In the 3 half hour periods since 10.44, it has gone up, respectively, by 4,000, 4,500 & 5,500.
Just over 50,000 to go, with the rate now accelerating past 11,000 per hour.
At 12.44, 989,955,777, so just under 6,000 in that half hour, & the HPH is now up to 12,000.
45,000 to go, & Team Lunch Break (2nd sitting) have now arrived.

What Liam said.
It scrolls though all the time, I just C & P this from "Summary" in the Chat Box......

The acceleration continues at a steady pace, with Team Lunch Break (2nd sitting) getting busy.
At 13.14, it was 989,962,212, so it went up 6,500 in that 30 minutes, & is now running at 13,000 per hour, with 38,000 to go.
At 13.44, it was at # 989,969,422, an increase of 7,200 in the 30 minutes, so the hourly is up to 14,400, & there are 31,000 to go.
