Yeah it is always better when your not trying to break the record for posts. Yes and all 71 posts were "friendly" as I recall no nuisance making

Hopefully KB will learn from this that you don't need to fight with people simply to interact with them.

Within the past week we had one day matching the OzChess record (to that point) of 73 posts!

Furthermore, just a couple days later we somehow broke the record and finished with 75 posts (a new daily record) !

By way of contrast our lowest post count day this month was 8, and second lowest was 19. Most days were well over 30, and our average for March to date is 35.7 posts - which is much higher than average and is approximately a third of what the swamp gets.

What does this mean?

Well, hard to say. Certainly the Ax effect is hard not to notice. But one things for sure, OzChess seems to have some life left in it

Wow sharing forums statistics like this is pretty interesting. I need to put in more effort to break the record.

We could probably take down 150, especially if Axiom and antichrist are on board and we all make a concerted effort. I spoke with Matt (Iconoclast) recently, and he was our top poster a few months ago. He's got family commitments at the moment but hopes to return in about a month.

Below are the stats for the first quarter of 2009 according to the Admin CP:

- First Quarter (Jan-March 2009) ---
- Posts in Month -
- Post Per Day Rate-
January
794
25.61
February
752
26.85
March
1028
33.16
Total For Quarter
2574
28.54


Now if we compare this to the first quarter of last year we can clearly see that we have a 500 post increase on Q1 2008

Thumbs up 79 - A New Record!!!

!
On 8 May 2009, we broke the post per day record with 79 posts. Apparently this displeased Kevin Bonham so much he had to write a little post about it in the swamp.

The knucklehead seems to forget that every post he writes there, either criticizing OzChess or not, simply gives us free publicity.

And the best part is, its so damn easy to rile him up and get him to post lengthy monologues about us!

Just thought I would let people know, in May we had 871 posts overall, and an average of 28 posts per day.

Below are the stats for the second quarter of 2009 according to the Admin CP:

- Second Quarter (Apr -June 2009) -
- Posts in Month -
- Post Per Day Rate-
April
502
16.73
May
871
28.09
June
677
22.56
Total For Quarter
2050
22.52

These statistics show a bit of a drop over the previous Q1 quarter (Jan-March 09), however the site was offline for some of the Q2 period (recently) which would obviously factor into the overall numbers and reduce them.

- First Quarter (Jan-March 2009) ---
- Posts in Month -
- Post Per Day Rate-
January
794
25.61
February
752
26.85
March
1028
33.16
Total For Quarter
2574
28.54

More good news, however, is that Q2 this year significantly exceeded Q2 last year which averaged only 12 posts per day.

- Second Quarter (Apr -June 2008) -
- Posts in Month -
- Post Per Day Rate -
April
473
15.76
May

Best Regards,

AO

Thumbs up 61 Posts Yesterday!

61 posts yesterday, not far off the mid 70's record for one day.

Also, the average post per day count is in the 30's this month!

OzChess, give yourself a pat on the back!

Apparently 29 posts per day in August, so our second best month this year!
