close to 1 000 000 seconds now

or about 159670 away from my predicted droptime

135 hours


276 hours ( now)


so that's another 44 hours to go before my prediction is a bust

i've gone and seen it in person
it's realying going fast now, you can see where they joined multiple blocks of ice to make up the block from which they carved the 911 shape
and where those blocks meet, it's going superfast

btw, that's one parameter nobody thought of,
but it seems that 2 blocks 1 cubik meter, joined to form 1 block of 2 cubik meter,
will melt faster then 1 solid block of 2 cubik meter would

i also get the idea that the bottom block is melting faster then the top 911 shape does, i presume that it does so , because of all the melting water that comes down from the top.. .or maybe there's something to do with the ground temp vs air temp... who knows

anyway, in person, it looks a lot smaller then the webcam would make you believe, it's maybe 80cm wide now, not much more

fingers crossed everybody, i could do with a free, brand new 997, because frankly, i don't make nearly enough money to every be able to buy one by the time i saved up the cash, they won't make em anymore !


how sweet it would be, to have that key, drop out of the block from the side, at something like 1159670 seconds...
just a little sound, of plastic and metal on stone... *plink*
