I'm so above average.

People on the boards will naturally skew the figure upwards; but there are a lot of people who check in once every few days just to read the news page.

Oh, we have longer threads. They've just been split in two.

• Most viewed thread: Generation Legacy (Issue #3)

Actually, that's due to a database glitch that vastly inflated its views count. I think the most views is in my story hour (500k or so), but I could easily be wrong. Some of the PbP threads get a lot of action.

 

[Creamsteak]

I sincerely doubt any PbP is read as much as your story hour.

He's trying to say "Excuse me, my thread has the most views, thank you very much!" except he wants to sound humble and stuff.

Next he's going to pretend he doesn't have hordes of nubile young women groupies crowding around him when he goes to Cons.

Neither of the above.

Hmmm... but maybe I could engineer both of those....

Excuse me. Lots to do!

Merak, I know you are a fan, but stalking Piratecat at the Cons is a little extreme don't you think?

I spend much more time on here than the average, I'm not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing...
