[QUOTE="BLACKDIRGE, post: 3858917, member: 1953"] [b]Resurrected[/b] I stumbled across this old thread while I was searching for something else, and I thought it would be cool to see how things have changed since the initial post. For those of you new to the thread, the OP formulates the "success" of a story hour based on the number of views devided by the number of posts. It's certainly not an exact sceince, but it does present some interesting results. I took the story hours from the first page and a half, and excluded my own story hours, since they are no longer updated in the traditional sense.
