[Just me trying to keep this forum going]

ok
as many of you have no doubt noticed at the bottom of the main screen it tells you the number of people on the boards and it tells you off to the left the greatest number and the date
that date was the 1st of Feb when we had 11 members on

so as a little bit of fun with the possibility of a mystery reward

When will we beat that record? What date and with how many people?

I'm gonna have to say tomorrow the 15th of Feb
and i'm guessing it will be beaten with 13 members

[LeeCHeSSS]

I doubt it will happen so soon..., normal usage shows 6 to 8 people online during american peak hours...

Btw, how do you people like my new smiley? :cat:

[BigRedRod]

yeah i like it :)
i thought i just hadn't noticed it before

it could happen, who knows :)

[BigRedRod]

on the subject of smilies while i remember

can we change this one : ;) and this one :) ?
i really don' like them for some reason :p
i think the winking one looks a little grainy and the smile doesnt look right
just my trhoughts on the subject :cat:

[LeeCHeSSS]

Get me a better one and I will upload them... simple

[dragonknight]

I kinda like the current ones. They are different and more unique. I'm kinda tired of see smilies like on AIM.

[BigRedRod]

if i see better ones i will let you know
actually i'll bug my brother to make me some :)

[BigRedRod]

well its the 16 and we didnt break the record
shame on you

ah well
i still think it will be with 13 people

[BigRedRod]

c'mon people
we have a boat load of members now
we just need you all to lurk on this site all day long and we can break the 11 member record
i have no idea why it bugs me so much but its getting to me now :)

I do believe we have had an update on the most people online.

Most users ever online was 12 on 30th of March, 2002 at 04:08.

WAHOO!!!
though, admittedly, it did take a while to get there... c'mon people, lurk your little hears out like the shadows we all know you to be!!! ;) :D

[BigRedRod]

weeee
we passed that landmark :)
now how long before we break that record :)?

[LeeCHeSSS]

Not too long I reckon. We're getting new users by the dozen now :)

[Kahluah]

Yeap... new users is goooood...

[BigRedRod]

thats some nice fluff you have there Kahula
i do believe thats the first time i've said fluff
wow twice in one post

yeah i've noticed a huge boatload of new users
and most don't seem to be from 3ebb, or they are using different names

[Cadogan Trahem]

Last Record:

Most users ever online was 13 on 3rd of April, 2002

My Bet:

Most users will be 15

Before or On the 7th of April 2002

[BigRedRod]

accordin gto my little thingy
most users was 13 on the 2nd of April
which was a tuesday
hmmm
i'm guessing it will be the 5th
with 14 ysers :)

and hey i was right
the record was broken with 13 people :)

[Kahluah]

BRR: so close and yet so far.

It was indeed broken on the 5th of April (Aussie time at least), but by a whopping 16, yes, that's right, SIX-FRICKEN-TEEN people .. :D :P ;)

[LeeCHeSSS]

Make that eightteen :)

[Kahluah]

yes yes yes, but that was -after- i left, so it doesn't count.... ;)

[Cadogan Trahem]

Bet:

20 by 9th

[BigRedRod]

whoa that number is just flying up :)

i think its becuaase of the dragon star game myself
they get like 100 posts per day
its the fastest pbp ever
so all the players are constantly on the site
c'mon people we need more dedicate dlurkers like them

[LeeCHeSSS]

*choke in fright*

Actually, we don't (or at least not too many). Their constant lurking on the site over the last 4 days for instance, has produced 250 mb bandwidth usage. Compare that to the 500 mb we used over the entire month of March...

Sure, I'm happy to see people enjoy my site, but I'm not gonna go bankrupt because of it :)
