Break the "Most users ever online" record!; Be part of the birthday celebration!
Topic Started: Mar 25 2007, 06:05 PM (841 Views)

For Nintendo 64 Forever's anniversary, we're gonna try to beat our record for the most users online.

Our current record:

"Most users ever online was 8 on Jan 28 2007, 01:32 PM".

So lets organize ourselves and beat that record!

First I need to know who would be interested in taking part. We'll be doing this on Nintendo 64 Forever's birthday, which is on Thursday April 5th. If you want to be part of our celebration, post here.

:D

Okay. But we're not allowed to organize a time?

We will organize a time! Once I find out who's interested I'll pick a time that suits the most people, that way we'll have the best chance of beating our record. :D

Remember that we have people from all over the world (US, UK, AUS, NZ, etc, etc), so we'll need to be careful about the time we choose.

Any time after 1PM EST should be good for me.

If anyone can't make it (like Raqueda), just leave your browser on with this site loaded up while you're gone.

I'll be on easter break then, so anytime during the day (GMT) should be fine.

Hey, this brings up an interesting question. Does "users" include guests? Because we could get the record even higher if it does...

No, I think it's just board members that it counts. :mellow:

Six members involved so far. We need at least nine... hopefully more!

I think it's only members too, but I guess we'll find out when the day comes.

Sadly that doesn't work. You have to be actively loading pages within the past 5 minutes. Having the browser open will only have you in the online users until 5 minutes after the page was sent to you.

I just tested this, and it appears you're right. That sucks. Well, maybe you could fashion some kind of device that clicks the mouse every five minutes? Like one of those wooden birds that dips into a glass of water?

No. If Rapueda or any the moderators see false accounts then they'll be deleted.

I'm happy with any time we decide upon, as long as I'm not at work. For now, though, we still need more people to take part.

Chicago/Dallas, US - 7pm, 5th April

Denver/Edmonton, US - 6pm, 5th April

If anyone has ideas for a better time please say...

Maybe we should wait until the weekend? 7th/8th April?

What do you want from me?! A bunch of Smilies? ^_^ ;) :D :lol: -_- :) :wub: :rofl: :w00t: :whistle:

8PM works for me... except that's the 6th of April for some people. Oh well, can't have it all.

And if for some strange reason I can't conceive happening that we don't break the best record ever, we'll all try and try again on the weekend and smash that most beautiful record to cereal bits and eat it for breakfast! We, the best users of the Internet, WILL set a new record for our forum of awesomeness that celebrates the best videogame system of all time! Let us band together and smite the mighty GameFAQs forum, for we are the ultimate forum of acceptitude and no-over-zealous-mods-who-ban-you-because-they-ate-a-bad-bagel-when-they-saw-your-username!

How's that for enthusiasm?

Hmmm... I don't think I can make it... I'll be in class until 15 min. past zero hour, which means I won't be able to get home & log on until 30 min. past. Then again, perhaps y'alls might stay online that extra 30 minutes... :unsure:

Maybe we could all simply make extra effort to log on throughout the 5th... all day, as long as it's the 5th somewhere in the world. ^_^ That way we still have that little bit of spontaneity, yet still increase our chances.

Has a pretty strong suspicion that at least our "64th" member is a "false account"... :unsure:

I'm not so sure. The persons username is too ****ing gay to be someones fake account. I know my fake account would (and probably will be) something along the lines of "Ragedy likes guys".

Y'know, we still don't know if guests count as users. Perhaps we should all come here as a guest while also being logged in? If guests count, we'd break the record for sure!
