Long ago - before Minecraft Beta, Alpha, Infdev or even Indev - our favorite sandbox building game was still in its infancy, only just assuming the beginnings of Creative. In those days, there was no "official" place to talk about the game, and it still had a very small but growing following. It was then that citricsquid decided, on June 16th, 2009, to make a forum dedicated to the game. From the very first post to the present day, 1,000 days have passed - that's right, the Minecraft Forum and Minecraft Wiki are one thousand days old today! We are now a much larger community (with over a million registered users), and a larger staff than in those days - the forum has come a long way since then!
From these humble beginnings came one of the most active game forums in existence! Want to know more details about the people who keep this great forum going? Check out this link for more stats and info; you can also leave a comment on the site about what the forum means to you! Congratulations on 1,000 days - here's looking forward to 1,000 more!

Wow. When you say 1000 days it sounds much older than it is, but for a website, that is still pretty old. Congrats on your 1000th day anniversary! (It's not a birthday people....birthdays come once every year. :D) Guess what, I went and played Minecraft Indev when I read this. The good ol' days.
someone calculate how old the forums are in minecraft days
P.S. minecraft day is 17 min long
That's 1,000 days which equals 24,000 hours = 1,440,000 minutes = 86,400,000 seconds
Also I think that would be like 408,000 Minecraft days. Don't quote me on that though.
Time Measurements
The following are approximations of Minecraft Time to Real Time:
1 Minecraft Second ≈ 0.013 seconds of gameplay.
1 Minecraft Minute ≈ 0.833 seconds of gameplay.
1 Minecraft Hour = 50 seconds of gameplay.
1 Minecraft Day = 20 minutes of gameplay.
1 Minecraft Week ≈ 2.333 hours of gameplay.
1 Minecraft Month = 10 hours of gameplay.
1 Minecraft Year = 121.75 hours of gameplay, or 5.07 days of gameplay.
The approximation of Real Time to Minecraft Time:
1 hour of gameplay = 3 Minecraft Days.
1 day of gameplay = 72 Minecraft Days.
1 week of gameplay ≈ 1.5 Minecraft Years, ≈ 17 Minecraft Months, = 72 Minecraft Weeks, = 504 Minecraft Days
1 month of gameplay ≈ 6 Minecraft Years, = 72 Minecraft Months, ≈ 308.5 Minecraft Weeks, = 2,160 Minecraft Days
1 year of gameplay = 72 Minecraft Years, ≈ 876.5 Minecraft Months, ≈ 3,757 Minecraft Weeks, ≈ 26,297.5 Minecraft Days
Months are assumed each month is 30 days long. Years are rounded off to 365.242199 days, and all close (contains ≈) measurements are rounded to the nearest thousandth, or 0.00x.
I wonder how long it will take until Minecraft Forums relizes and tells everyone that you can now buy Minecraft Avatar Items on Xbox live........ or they might not tell us at all.
