HiYa! I was thinking just for the hell of it I want to see if we can break the record of "Most users ever online was 108 on Mon Nov 09, 2009 2:38 pm"

so . . . lets all come up with a date and time of when to be online at this very site. I'm still not entirely sure how this is going to go. from where I am the time is 1:21pm

Right, well here at the moment it's 1:03pm on the 7th of July.

It might just be easier to state which timezone you're in, in which case I'm currently GMT+1 ('cos it's summer).

gmt + 9.5 here

GMT -6

And 108 is impossible to beat as there are less than 20 active members. The reason it was so high was due in part to guests, and possibly a bot or two.

This is quite often the case with a lot of forums, they have a much higher record attendance then they have number of active members. And usually the record high is at a time when everyone is online, but nobody is actually DOING ANYTHING....

Maybe we should offer a million dollar prize to the first 109 people to visit the site at such a time. Then we can break the record.

Oh, and to be fair, I think Jason should put the money up.

Yes, I second that proposal!

Can we vote on it now please, before Jase wakes up?

Each of the people involved in breaking the current record would get £9174.31 (if there are 109 people; less if more turned up) - I could certainly do with 9 grand 'round about now, dunno about anyone else here.... XD

Efff that. If I had 1/100th of that I'd be happier than anybody on the planet.

GMT-5. I actually talked about this in "This Really Happened?!" In Gen Discussion. I don't think it'll happen again, because most of those were guests and bots.
