Halloween Gold

Last night, the game hit 700 posts for the month of October.

OK, most people won't understand how big a deal that is. 700 posts? in 25 days? Damn. Previously, our highest month was March '06 and that was just 638 posts--and it took us a hell of a lot of work to get there. And now our players just casually hit 700 posts in 25 days.

It's the players, of course. There's more of us. And more active threadlines going, more interactions--hell, we've had as many as 8 players involved in a single plotline! The average per thread right now is 3. That's a lot of very satisfying give 'n take. (I remember the old days where some players pretty much had to strike out on their own with NPCs to get a good story going, we had so few players. Now, unless you insist on it, it's pretty hard to find a reason to play in NPC-land unless that's the way you want it.)

All of which is just Chyna's way of saying Happy Halloween!

And we have 6 days left, ladies and gents. Just how high is this thing gonna go?
