Add-on A celebration supplement for the occasion of the millionth post

[urivil]

My forum is approaching its millionth post.
Is there a plugin that can be configured, so that automatically as soon as the millionth post is written, there will be blooming balloons, fireworks, or something else animated?

First you need to answer the question: how do you define "millionth" post?

Is it the post with the ID 1000000 ?

Is it the post that makes your board stats show "1,000,000 posts"?

How do you determine which post was the one that made 1 million? Do you count all posts? Deleted posts? Posts made in forums that don't count towards user totals?

What happens if you have to delete some spam after you pass the magic million mark and drop back down below that level?

Sorry to make it difficult - but these are things you need to decide - finding the millionth post is not quite as simple as it may sound!

(Personally, I just made an announcement shortly after I noticed that we had passed the 1 million posts mark - and posted some stats for my members to enjoy)
