so in conclusion, $\int^{\overline{r}}\frac{2Mr-Q^2}{r^2-2Mr+Q^2}dr=Mln \mid \overline{r}^2-2M\overline{r}+Q^2 \mid+\frac{2M^2-Q^2}{\sqrt{-M^2+Q^2}}arctan(\sqrt{\frac{r-M^2}{-M^2+Q^2})$

Okay, Important Contest Challenge!! We are fast approaching reaching the 1,500,000 th question posted/present on math.se. Some of you might remember (@AlexanderGruber??), that in 2018, @quid sponsored a contest/game allowing users to pick separate estimates of the day upon which we would record the millionth question.

Since we are only essentially 2,500 posts away from 1.5 k questions, I propose, under UTC time, that users wanting to participate, claim a twelve hour period (midnight until noon, UTC, or noon until 11:59:59 pm, on the day they pick for the 1.5 millionth question.

As a matter of precedence, @quid will announce the winner, among those participating. But once a specific 12 hour period of a specific day is selected by a user, no one else can select it, unless the first claimant forsakes their selection!

@leslietownes, @AlexanderGruber, @quid (The Champion from 2018), @user21820, @MartinR, @Peter, @Koro. Note this is open for everyone, not just the ones I can ping from here. So feel free to link the contest to other users who you think might be interested!

Anyone here I haven't pinged (because I couldn't, from the Cafe/Tavern chat: @ParclyTaxel, @postmortes, @Semiclassical, @islamm, @JoséCarlosSantos, @JoséCarlosSantos, @JitendraSingh, @jasmine, @Joe, @Xander ... Who can pick the day and time math.se reaches 1.5 million question?

Please check the days before the announcement of the original contest in the transcript at the link provided above: Whatever quid for more information about that 2018 contest.

@amWhy I don't understand. It says "1,447,464 questions" currently, which is about 52500 questions away from 1.5 million questions.

Probably in jan.

Lol I subtracted wrongly as well; edited to fix. =P

@user21820 Yes, you are correct... thanks for the correction! I should post a do over, or delete my announcement until, say Dec., where folks can pick a day. Period. I've got a lot of deleting to do before I confuse everyone!

Ok! Probably starting to guess in early december would give everyone a good chance. =)

Apologies to all who come before I delete my comments in CURED. The contest will be held in December.
