    If a million beers is our goal, and 1% of a million is 10,000 (I'm no math whiz, so somebody check my work here), 1,000 is 0.1%, 100 is 0.01%, and a single beer is 0.001% of our goal. Every little bit helps.

    I helped by adding 0.0115% yesterday.

    You didn't do all that math in your head?! It all looks correct as long as your 0.0115% means that you added 115 new beers yesterday. That's huge!! Way to go! :clap::clap:

    Didn't even use my crayons!

    Found a few regional breweries who were on the site, but only had a few beers listed. Checked their on-line beer lists, and, BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE!

    Next, let's do places!

    The site has 20,457 places listed, more or less. I think we can get up to 20,500 if I ever get around to adding all the places in my notes.

    Aaaaaand I don't give a darn!

    "What's that?"

    "I said, I don't GIVE a DARN!"

    "Oh, he's our shortstop!"

    Not up past my bedtime, just one big double-digit Parabola over the limit after 'hitting for the cycle' on ipas beforehand.

    And yes, yes I paid for it today.

    Close by Michigan? I can’t think of anything. I did make it over to that Mexican supermacado/taqueria finally, however, and can’t stop thinking about the incredible meal I had. (They also had some imports I don’t find too often out here.)

    Just added four new ones from our local brewery (20 total). I like to at least have a taster or sip shot of every beer I add when I'm at a brewery.

    OK, this thread has been up for a week now. As of Post 14, the total beers were 741,889, per @Todd . Where are we now? Did we we do better than the weekly average? Are we getting closer to the Magic Number?

    Is the site being janky for anybody else? Loading very slow, freezing in the middle of typing? It's putting a serious crimp in adding beers.

    It was freezing between every step of adding a beer. Was working fine earlier, got worse as the afternoon went on.

    Todd posted it in post 14 of this thread. I don't see a place to see the number on my end.

    Just tried again, and added some beers with no issue. Shrug, technology.
