Numbers on the board
Just a little fun, but what is the highest number of people on the board at any one given time? Ill start it off, I think this is the highest Ive ever seen, 947. I guess with the public holiday, the associated weather and the latest SNAFU so people looking for advice, numbers are up anyway!

I did see it go above 1700 over the weekend. Whether that's a record in BAFT's history I don't know.
Prospero pulled some interesting stats about four* years ago. Wonder if he can do it again?
*Margin error of 4.

Ok, so it's a bank holiday and there is a time difference, but at the moment there are only 97 on the AA board (19 members and 78 guests).
Wonder how it differs at times of days. I do f think the BA boards drops much below 100 even at quiet times of the day.

On a related topic I noticed the main IT outage thread reached 1000 posts by sometime Sunday evening and wondered vaguely if that was the most active growth for a new thread ever?

Okay, i'll admit to ignorance in not knowing how to find how many are on at a given time. However, the thread started, it was still night in Eastern US. Now as the US is waking up. ( 10:03 in NYC) more people will be on. Not to many people live in the Atlantic. So, you have times when most of the populated sections of the world are awake--be it morning or night.
