One week later...

A week ago today, in a memorable cyber-disaster, ATU I was shipwrecked and the surviving members took to the lifeboats:

Exactly one week later, I think it can safely be said- in imagery appropriate to Easter week- that ATU II has risen from the dead:


The Resurrection- Piero della Francesca.

New site (thanks to SJ)
30 members.
2065 posts.

A quite extraordinary cyber-achievement.



Congrats all round.

Me too.....

to you all!

...sj's alter ego had a thing about rescuing bunnies, I do believe.

Lemme see ... old ATU had 80,000 threads and over 160 members.

But 95 percent of the threads were long dormant, and over 100 of the members were phantoms.

So I reckon that membership is probably back to at least half strength, and by the time the thread count reaches 2 figures in all areas (and the post counts all reach 3 figures), it'll be pretty much like normal again.

But at the moment the pinhedz statistics crazy. Not even LJ ever came close to this:

Topics
* Number of topics : 79 (25.73% of total)
* Topics per day : 9.88
* Latest topic : Mon Apr 18, 2011 9:19 am
* Find all pinhedz topics

Posts
* Posts : 358 (16.29% of total)
* Posts per day : 44.75

But even more remarkable than the quantity is the consistently high quality.

And of course the modesty

How is that even possible? ER only has 46,000 threads and scores more active members...

I think Pinz must have meant 80,000 posts- not threads.

One time I calculated the overage productivity of ATU members vs ER members, and was quite a revelation. (which is not to suggest that we are making the best use of our time ).
