User blog:Gideoncrawle/Thoughts on the Featured User election

I have heretofore taken the position that it doesn't much matter when I become a Featured User, because it's bound to happen sometime. Now, however, I have discovered a reason to care about the timing.

If I win this month (and my chances look good, as I currently hold a modest lead over several other worthy wikians), I think I can manage my activity over the next two weeks so that I post my "acceptance speech" as edit #1,000.

How awesome would that be?
