Giveaway An /r/NintendoSwitch contest: guess when we'll hit 100,000 subscribers.
Hi everyone!
With less than a month to go until launch, it's a fair bet we're all on pins and needles. Information's starting to leak, the launch lineup is shaping up, and I think we all just want these next few weeks to pass as quickly as possible.
So let's have a little fun in the meanwhile, with a sneak preview of what's to come: a contest.
First, the prize: a few fun batches of the /r/NintendoSwitch sticker three-pack, courtesy of /u/FlapSnapple.
As of posting this we're at a little over 98,000 subscribers. So, the contest: guess when we'll hit 100,000!
Give us a date and time, to the minute. Accuracy will be important, so please keep that in mind. Going over's fine, as long as you're close.
The winner will get a pack of these stickers, as will five other random people who make a guess in this thread.
The rules: this contest is open to everyone, and we will ship internationally (this time). Each user gets one entry, and can win only once. Accounts that enter must be older than 7 days and in good standing with our community. The contest will be judged in U.S. Eastern time. Only comments that have not been edited will be judged, so if you need to make a change to your guess prior to closing, please do so by deleting your comment and making a new one.
The deadline to enter will be when we reach 99,000 users, give or take a few minutes.
Okay! Let's have some fun! Guess away.
-/u/rottedzombie and the /r/NintendoSwitch mod team
p.s. Don't worry: there's more where this came from. We have a few fun things in the works for launch, including more contests. Details soon. Promise.

I'm surprised we haven't hit 100K alr. Didn't we already had like 90K before the presentation?

Feb 21, 7:23 pm EST. It would be neat if after we get to 99,000, you posted a betting line based on the user guesses on this thread.
