Well done on a fantastic milestone, Guys.

Thanks to Megacruncher for his congratulations.

Whoever hits the 2 billion credit barrier first, let us hope that the friendship between TSBT and UBT remains strong. After all, we are both striving to help mankind to improve our world for the better.

Rick.

Will have to get Darren to add a message on the front of the forum to say we are only the X team to pass the 1 Billion marker where X refers to the amount of teams that have already passed it

1 Billion is great ... any statistical predictions for when we might make 2 billion?
