Too busy with Civ4:Warlords, don't think I'll have time. Will probably be able to post some raw stats later this week, but not the usual statistics galore...

5:45 in the morning, need to get some sleep first...

80K members... awesome

good to see...

looking forward to any such stats Locutus

[Skanky Burns]

w00t!

[Ecthy]

And only the first 2,000 or so of those members have a post count beyond 100. All the rest is people staying fro short time/lurking only.

[Alex]

I wouldn't register if all I wanted was to lurk.

[DrSpike]

Nice milestone.

[Ecthy]

Nice screenshot. But then I think he was sitting in front of the screen refreshing the page until that number appeared.

Maybe not, but as has been said many times in these kind of threads, you have to have a username in order to download some of the files, so even if you didn't want to join the forums to post +1s denouncing others as spammers then maybe you might in order to get special mods or other things to support your love of Civ.

Oh oh! I'm a DL I'm a DL!

OTBOT has said so, thus it must be true.

[Locutus]

Okay, here's some stats and graphs. Not as much as you're used to, but all I can do under the circumstances. Just hope 90k comes after Warlords, but not so long after that we're working on the next XP

The effect of the only important event of the last 6 months, the release of Civ4, should be clear for all to see anyway

See previous thread for more detailed info and stats up to 70k.
