So I guess we won't get to 1000 before 2008, then.
Pretty much.
Unless we somehow pull together and find something or other to talk about while still remaining on-topic. Outlook? Eh, not likely. >_>
Actually, though, I'm not convinced we would have made it to 1000 before 2008 anyway. If the thread had continued growing at the Novembust rates after page 900 (21 days passed between page 800 and 900, I believe, but right now I'm too tired to go back and search for my previous post on that or even to type the thread title and its proper page into the browser), we would have hit 1000 as of the end of December 27th in Pacific time. Considering that we're 21 pages away, we already experienced a significant slowdown that can probably be attributed to the holidays.

Does anyone have an estimation of how many "knowns" there are left to reveal?
In other words, we're certain there are final smashes, special moves, etc. for each character.
How many weeks will be eaten by what we already know is coming?
Series without a character profile: Animal Crossing, F-Zero, Nintendo DS
Characters without a final smash: Snake, Zelda, Zero Suit Samus
Series without a stage: F-Zero, Sonic
Series without music: F-Zero, Mario, Nintendo DS
Characters without special moves: Pikachu, Samus, Zelda, Bowser, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Peach, Ice Climbers
However, it's worth noting that if these were each a single update, there literally wouldn't be enough time before the Japanese release date for all of these to get filled up. That logic holds even if you take out the potential character profiles.
