One billion page views

If you refresh quick, the number won't go up. This could be either because it wants a unique host or because of a timer that prevents rapid reloads.

He wants 1 billion unique hits.

Are there even a billion IP addresses?

Technically, no. Not until IPv6 is implemented. This guy is going to spend over a grand in hosting over the next 10 years reaching this goal.

I mean, shit, IP translation is going to cut the amount of unique hosts in half.

Guy has a big ego.

It won't happen if its unique visitors. A billion of repeat hits I could see.

And that's the word.

At this rate, he'll be waiting to collect his bet for about 362 years approximately...Unless of course he means a British billion (a million million). Then he's really boned.

Does he have a deadline for this?

[DarkWing6]

I kept refreshing and the number continued to go up. I don't know if that is just others visiting or me causing it to go up.

Could you screw the system the same way Heeter did when we banned his IP?

[Erick]

I dont see why not.
