I've been stuck at position 79992 for the past 10 minutes ... I just want to see the docs and guides!

This is a countdown? I haven't seen the number change at all; I was under the impression it was just your fixed user number. Then again mine is lower (758xx) and I only just signed up... I could've really used some hints here.

EDIT: The "mystery" over a lot of this is just making me less interested at this point. Sorry, marketers.

Yeah it's really starting to like this is more of a marketing company than a technology company, trying to milk some publicity but doing a really bad job of it.

Not a countdown. :-)
