18000 Logins
A rather delayed note on our 18000 logins as the 18000th user registered around two or three weeks ago. Which means that the distance between 17000 and 18000 logins was around 2 months(we hit 17000 on January 18). However, It seems like we are on higher speeds now as we are already over 18600 logins!

Keeping the tradition, some unique visitors stats: 215,199 in January, 209,587 in February and
175,275 in March. The trend in the first days of April is the same as of March, showing that despite our not-so-great server status during the last months, we're holding well over the pre-Civ3 numbers(130,000 back in August and 60,000 last March!). So, once again, thank you for your support!

If we have this many logins and traffic, then why does the online users never seem to exceed 300?

#17820; it can be read from the link to your user profile (it reads checkuserid=17820 or something like that).
Of course, it would not work if you were one of those who have registered over 30 years ago, their User Id numbers have been randomly selected (or something).

Its alphabetical pretty much, with exceptions. DanQ being the most notable.

Check my ID number, far better than 17,000+

Believe me, it did for quite some time. Only the number of active users was displayed.

That's AH being creative.

Maybe the poster behind Alexander's Horse is the mastermind of this all? Maybe we, as living beings, and the surrounding world, is just a spark of thought in a large computer, or merely the mind of AH.

If we are AH's thoughts, then he has a very poor imagination.
