    I guess the main concept is this:

    Everyone who reads the post gets a PART of the original 100$ which was being offered, so by the time the day is over, you will probably only receive not even a penny's worth...which of course cannot even be sent out to anyone, unless there is some other form of currency which could equate to the same value, however, that is unlikely.

      So your guessing it will get 10K views by midnight?

        There may be people who aren't even a member of this forum who're viewing this thread. Not sure how views are measured, if the forum takes into account views from "guests" or not, but perhaps I am! LOL, and if not, there is only 100$ to each of us...and if one were to split that up, it's still not all that much.

        As of right now it has 75 or so views. Now of course many of these views could be coming from the same people over and over again, but let's say that the majority are not, and that at least 75 different people will have viewed this thread anyways, by the end of the night.


        That's 1.333....$ per person.


        LOL, but you know, with all of those people coming on the forum lately, offering their "google 100$ ad certificate" for "free" or even "for sale"....lol, maybe this 100$ is just a google coupon. If that's the case, I've also heard that it can't be given out to others anyways, since the coupon is registered to each person's individual name.

        I'm from Canada, and I do kindof remember that rule, but adults forget rules...lol, and only implement them when they see fit.


        But heck, Christmas is only one day, and now we have black friday and boxing day and gosh knows what else too!

        New years is only a 10 second count down, but now we have two days dedicated to that too: new years eve, and new years day.


        So any time people can drag things on, like celebrations or holidays...they sure do. Heck, it's still my birthday. Technically I am still 21, so I am TURNING 22, which makes it still my birthday...so where's all my birthday wishes? LOL

        Haha, yeah actually I come from South Africa originally, so now I dont know...

        As for the money, even it it wasn't an april fools joke, how would I be able to send the money to hundreds of different people if this thread gets read by so many?

        And what about the paypal fees, hehe?

    Technically it's called "April fools DAY" so maybe that has something to do with it as well...because when the sun is down, is not daytime if the sun is down on your side of the hemisphere.

      Just to add more confusion a day is considered 24 hours .

        But the word "day" in itself can be used to refer to the period within 24 hours WHICH is occupied by sunlight, whereas night would be the period where there is no sunlight.

        That reminds me of the scene in "Bruce Almighty" where Carrey gets tired of people praying to him to win the lottery. He finally decrees that anyone who asks will indeed win the lottery. The next morning, the news has a report on how millions of people hit the lottery on the same drawing, winning a few cents each...
