It’s 07:36 BST (in the U.K. we are still on ‘summer’ time until the early hours of Sunday 25th October).

At 07:36 this morning it was dark outside and pouring down. Definitely British summer time. :lol:

Whoever posts that number gets to go on a free trip...to their favourite bank.

Sorry.

I don't think we celebrated the other milestones: 16384 and 32768.

However, I was able to determine the 49152th post. It was this one from [mention]jdanddiet[/mention] in the "Top 100 ZX Spectrum Games" thread:

Whoops, just noticed that's meant to say 49152nd.

Also, rather ironically, that was my 256th post! :mrgreen:

It's a shame, but there's no reason we can't beat the old record! As Archimedes might've once said, "Give me a user list long enough and a mention tag with which to bug people, and I shall move the 'Most users ever online' counter". :mrgreen:

Looks like it's only reporting registered users online. It's showing that there are only 12 users online at the moment. It used to show non-registered users too.

We stopped counting guests as you spotted. The majority of these were bots anyway. I've also changed users in last 5 minutes to 15 minutes. We thought it sensible therefore to reset the count.

That's the spiwit!

(I wonder if Archimedes's quote was inspired by Uncle Clive's 'exceed his grasp' aphorism).
