(((Procrast-nation Page Views/10) + Comments + images uploaded + database size/1000000 + Total Blog Wordcount/250 + total site posts + HOID word count/500 + HOID page views/1000)^2(1 + (((Total Site Posts)(Total Blog Wordcount))/1000000)) = Calories Consumed
8989/10 + 557 + 892 + 500000000/1000000 + 250308/250 + 410 + 338764/500 + 675735/1000)^2 (1 + 410(250308)/1000000) = 3,265,989,052 calories consumed
Fatman Official Weight: 933139.2 pounds
Fatman Weight Gain since last calculation: 563264.6 pounds
Calorie Equivalent: The equivalent of the amount of energy he has consumed through food would power a 60 watt light bulb for 72 centuries.
Mass Equivalent: Approximately the mass of 3 boeing 747 airplanes.
Notes: The change demonstrated here is the result of garbage day which was a huge success. We managed to get almost 200 images, over 60 posts, and a whole lot of content, some of it aweomse, and some of it…. well content. It was a very successful event that almost put the fat guy over the million pound threshold. Next time he will certainly be there. Oh, and as an important note, I estimated the total amount of blog content in storage capacity because I did not have access to the data, so the fatman could actually weigh significantly more.
Formula Improvement: This is a big one. The HOID room count is now part of the multiplier. It is multiplied by site posts and word count. This is divided by a billion rather than a million, but with 3 factors in the multiplier itself, this means massive growth will be seen. Expect the fatman to grow by at least 5 times in the next calculation, and he could potentially shoot up an entire order of magnitude.
NEW FORMULA: (((Procrast-nation Page Views/10) + Comments + images uploaded + database size/1000000 + Total Blog Wordcount/250 + total site posts + HOID word count/500 + HOID page views/1000)^2(1 + (((Total Site Posts)(Total Blog Wordcount)(HOID Room Count)/1000000000)) = Calories Consumed
