Why the thread counter is off by many threads

The thread counter on the main page is off from the final statistic determined in another thread. We already hit 3,000,000 threads. I know why now, because the counter doesn't use the actual number of threads in the section. It multiplies the number of pages of listings of threads by 25.

The problem is that the max number of threads in a page of listings is 27, except on the front page where it is 26. That means the counter needs an adjustment.

@Richie

That is the flawed value. The CURRENT real count is actually closer to the following if current statistics are inputted:

best approximation of # of threads in OT = ((# of pages in OT - 1)*27)+26

Which comes up 3239972 as of my last inputting of values.

I bet someone forgot to change how the counters' values are determined when the # of threads in a listing was bumped up.
