"Most users ever online was 1,541, 04-21-2006 at 07:44 AM."

On the anniversary of the record, lets see if we can pick a time frame for EVERYONE to be on at once.

Was that the foam?

We should use the winning time, since it worked once. that time works for me--I'm in Central, which makes it 8:44 am
bluecuracao • Apr 17, 2007 7:39 pm
If I were working the whole night before, I'd make it...but I'm not working that night.
DucksNuts • Apr 17, 2007 9:08 pm
I'm too brain farked to figure out what that is my time.
Cloud • Apr 17, 2007 9:12 pm
I don't blame you--you're in Australia and I wouldn't want to figure it out.

it's whatever time listed at the bottom of the main screen for the "most users ever online" reference-- if you have your time set up in your profile correctly

It's gotta be from the foam - That's the day after I joined and its from the foam I found this place to begin with.

Of course, UT will have to help by posting an especially Fark/Slashdot/Digg/etc-worthy IOTD...

Doable, its a Sunday morning.

we'll never beat it on purpose. there's really only about 50 of us that pay attention consistently. In my opinion. and that's a generous estimate.

Includeing sock pupets ???

Most of them were guests. There are times where we have over 1,000 guests so I don't think you can control that very much.
Spexxvet • Apr 18, 2007 9:31 am
don't forget the spiders and spies - they count.
cowhead • Apr 18, 2007 10:24 am
well.. if you could get those 'this is not porn' people to all log in I think there might be a chance.
LabRat • Apr 19, 2007 2:43 pm
What if both Kagen and I post some new pics at the appropriate time?;)

We could use some imaginatively placed foam to commemorate the occasion...
DucksNuts • Apr 20, 2007 1:15 am
Its...just....so............
freshnesschronic • Apr 20, 2007 1:18 am
What is the point of knowing the most people logged on at one time?
glatt • Apr 20, 2007 1:00 pm
It's interesting.
Sheldonrs • Apr 21, 2007 8:56 am
Not looking promising. Oh well, there's always next year.:)
Undertoad • Apr 21, 2007 12:40 pm
Not looking promising not because we can't but because the server can't - for some reason it's getting a load average of 36.00 (Unix/Linux heads will know) and there are only 1200 visitors. I thought moving the database to the other system would fix this, but apparently there's still too much load on the main system. Maybe it's a little hosed and needs a reboot...
Sheldonrs • Apr 21, 2007 1:16 pm
Only 36 loads? Hell, I've taken more than that in one night! hahahaha
cowhead • Apr 23, 2007 3:53 pm
urk...I didn't want to know that.. (mental pictures begone!)
