According to my mad math skills, this PM conversion will finish just in time for me to fall asleep, wasting the overnight opportunity to do some more converting to IPB 4.
It looks like IPB 4 is already full compatible with PHP 7 out of the box. This bodes well for the future. Once we are up and running, I'll look at switching to PHP 7 as it should yield a significant boost in performance.
How many of you will kill me if there is no Arcade in futures.io (formerly BMT) v5.0? Show of hands by way of 'thanks' to this post if you will be very upset that feature is gone.
Initial conversion to IPB 3.4 finished, but it seems all the forum permissions didn't get migrated. So I am manually resetting them all, will take me some time.

Some progress being made. This is IPB 3.4 (old). Just checking things a bit, before backing up this point in time and then continuing by migrating this to IPB 4.0 (where the real fun begins).
Also this is just the first of many of these conversions. I will have to start the process over from scratch several more times before everything is perfect, that is why I am not stopping after hitting a couple errors already (missing avatars for most users, and also it seems my personal user account has wrong post counts --- but others seem OK).
If you are a Market Wizard and want beta access, please reply to this thread. A reminder to all: this is only a beta test. All new content on the beta site will be deleted. Only beta testers can see new content there.
For beta testers, I need:
-- Database was converted as of Monday, Aug 3 midnight --
1. Do your post counts look accurate? Thread counts?
2. Do your private messages look accurate?
3. Are your access permissions correct? Can you get to everything you should be able to, and not to anything you shouldn't?
4. Can you access forum content, images, file attachments correctly?
From there the most important aspect is testing! I need you to report bugs to this thread -- not on the beta site threads. Include a screenshot if it's not obvious what the issue is, and I'll add the bugs to the list.
I'll open it up beyond Market Wizards once we get a little further in the process. Right now, I need a high level list of broken items so I can get the developers to start working on them.
