Yeah we were on the same track about CTP.......though as I said I preferred SMAC stacking. Civ3 was definitely a step back though......either SMAC or CTP's system would have been preferable.

NObody else seems to be around. But at least this forum is amusing on a quiet saturday morning

Yeah it is pretty active here at the moment.

Nowhere else seems to be generating many posts.

Usually saturday morning is pretty quiet at Poly...

Since it seems much of the posting is usually done by people at work

Yeah there is the work effect, but I think it is outweighed by poeple having more time on weekends......it definitely seems busier on the weekends to me.

**War4ever** · January 25, 2003, 14:24

agreed, fri/sat nights always seem busy to me....

Actually (and this comes from somebody who watches posting levels as part of his job here) Friday night is one of the slowest nights on the site. After people leave work, things start to quiet down. Saturday during the day is usually slow (not today it seems, traffic is way up for some reason) and it really doesn't pick up until later.

Sundays can be really slow.

The weekdays are by far the heaviest days for traffic, and usually during American Work Hours.

really, i was not aware of that, i would assume that fri night was busy......but i guess you would know best

Friday nights are made for partying... Most people have better things to do. And North Americans posting from work really drive the heavy cycles. Heck, you can even notice the drop off at 11 am my time when the east coast goes out to lunch... no kidding.

**War4ever** · January 25, 2003, 15:18

lol, and i am on the westcoast, so no wonder i am always last to post

Like War says I'm not going to argue with someone that has the numbers. Remember I am GMT though.......it always seems Saturdays are busier than weekdays to me.......but maybe not.

its a conspiracy, ming wants to keep us off during high post times so he can remain the first and only DD double deity....haha

**DrSpike** · January 25, 2003, 16:10

True......always question the motives of the person presenting the information.......first rule of econometrics.

**War4ever** · January 25, 2003, 16:43

i questions everything you say doc

**DrSpike** · January 25, 2003, 16:52

Well keep questioning........it's the best way to lift you out of your current state of ignorance.
