The new forum software might be ready before then meaning old activity measures may well be retired. 
I might have to rename the thread "Who will reach Merit of 10,000 ??"
Let me be the first one to guess. I guess it will be ...
(1) theymos
(2) satoshi - any random topic
(3) Pizza Bitcoiner (laszlo)
[snip]
As far as I know BCT will keep both Activity and Merit.
Correct me if I am wrong, even a Newbie with 1 quality post can reach 10k merit if 1k people gave 10 merit each but reaching 10,010 activity is still exclusive to active Legendary members.
In my opinion, instead of renaming the thread, it is more relevant to have a new thread instead.

You're right. I actually didn't think of this until you said it. You deserve a merits. And maybe this post will be the first post to break theymos topic and reach ten thousand merits - well, the chances isn't that high though. xD.
