I have tried this before, but to no avail. However. today's response to "The Shining" release gave me new hope.

We had record numbers of members logged on so. it can be done. I'll throw in the caveat that I, the "Haven fund whore" will remain silent for an entire day of your choosing if we can beat the previous "Most users online" total.

I propose Saturday, 3/16/13 at 12 noon EDT as the date and time for our gathering. Can we do this folks????

Can you shut the Haven Fund Whore up for a day?

Can we make Internet history?

Or will I be able to continually annoy everyone about the HF?

What will I do as, Director for a day"??????

Tune in to find out!!!

Any reason in particular why March 15th?

Edit: Hey look, first reply ... why can't I do that when it counts!

Might I suggest adding a time as well? To make it really worthwhile, you could also ask everyone who signs in that hour to hit the widget and donate $5. That would be $5 toward a good cause, a new attendance record, a chance at a personalized King book, and getting rid of you for a day, all in one fell swoop. That's a pretty damn good deal!

The current record is 461, right?

The current record is 461, right?
Yes, but that number is inflated by several things. Perhaps 25-35% were spam bots. Since I changed the verification system it dropped about 125 "guests" off at any given time. I wish I knew how many of the 461 were members.
Yesterday we peaked at ~9:35 am (PST) with 75 members and 216 guests. Total 291.

Brice
01-24-2013, 07:47 AM
I don't remember. Does anyone recall a reason why we had so many here that day?

Bill's gonna' do everything he can to get people here that day including getting his "real world" non-sk friends to come here. LOL

I will be there if I am home - have not checked my work schedule. If you plan on making it a set time frame for people to show up - how about something like 6 PST - after work on west coast, not too late for east coast - I know I have not taken into account all the non-US residents, but thats too many time zones for me to figure out

Sorry, Jean. I thought throwing a couple well planned posts was preferred to a dedicated thread. My bad. All done anyway!!! Forgive me? LOL

Maybe YOU should be the ambassador of all things "Non-Calvin's Corner"????? Hint. hint? LOL

Jean
01-25-2013, 10:55 AM
I think both way might work. Make a thread where non-collectors play, and post elsewhere at strategic intervals. I will try cover your ass if other mods are out to get you for flooding.

Merlin, me brudda ... just saw that 15 March is a Friday, and since you're doing it at noon ... well, I think lotsa folks will still be at work and unable to participate (all US time zones included, not considering other countries). May I humbly suggest you schedule for a weekend for better chance of max participation no matter what corner of the golbe you reside, or at least after 8 PM EST on a weekday, so that all US time zones have a better chance to not be at work.

Again, just a suggestion! No matter what time you pick, somewhere someone will be at work ... I'm just trying to play the odds.

Very good point, George. I've amended the first post to mover the date to:


Saturday, 3/16/13 at 12:00pm EDT

If, of course that is okay with everyone???

Also, with regard to cabinet positions, as with real politics "greasing the wheels of progress" never hurts. With that in mind, potential cabinet appointee's will do themselves wonders with a $5 paypal widget donation!!!!

Lastly, given that I will be up to my eyes in administrative duties (being 6'9" means A LOT of duties) we will also need someone to take over the Haven Fund duties for the day. So, who among you would like to be:

"The Haven Fund Whore" a day????

I would guess that you still might have a better turnout during the week...maybe if you took a quick poll - weekend at noon est, midweek at noon est, or mid week at 9 est (that would be my vote - hockey and skating takes place on the weekends - but I am only one person)

I appreciate your input, but this is the last change that will be made come hell or high water. As "George" said, no matter what the date some will be negatively affected and some not. FWIW, it will be a date and time you don't want to miss!!! There will be other things going on that will be "Epic"!!!! Merlin will "RULE" 3/16/13!!!! Be there or be BANNED!!!!and we will OCCUPY TDT.ORG and take it back for the masses from the OVERLORDS!!!!! LOL J/K

I'd be happy to "Remind" you of the date!!!

Also, in addition to lots of (if you're a "problem solver) "free stuff" (I'm reviewing my items to send to RF) I would like to maybe "Tie-in" the HF in some way, but don't want to offend or chase anyone off. Sort of a "soft" sell if you will. Any thoughts, idea's you could live with?

This added element to the day is ALL, RF!!!! Is he TMIDITW or what? Well, after my "Cameo's"!!! LOL LOL LOL

There will be a random drawing of the members who PM me in the first hour (limit 50 members, so you better get there in the first hour). We have at least 5 items worth over $25, and some $50+. FREE SHIPPING-WORLDWIDE (Yes I will send the $25 item to Kathmandu at a shipping cost of $50...:frown: )

The Grand prize will be a quiz. This quiz will NOT be solved in 6 minutes. It will involve SK knowledge, Dt.Org Catalog searching, post searching....and
looking for "Easter Eggs". HINT (http://www.hiddendvdeastereggs.com/)
These "eggs" will be here and there, but are hyperlinks to help one answer the questions.

The Grand prize is a S/L edition of Desperation (http://www.thedarktower.org/palaver/showwiki.php?title=Desperation+-+S+L) estimated value >$275

RF? I've been paying close attention to the "Member/Guest" online numbers and I've got to wonder, "What the hell" with the numbers on that date? It seems to me that having 50-100 actual "Members" would be absolutely "Awesome" yet there were "461 members online" on that date. Is that accurate? Should we actually be basing "donations", giveaways and what not on those numbers? Is that a "hold over" from "Matt" that needs "Qualification"? Inquiring minds want to know (especially if I want to donate $$$ based on a number to the HF!!!

What's the facts, Jack???

The number is not valid. That number is from the old 3.0 software (but stayed when we upgraded to 4.0). That 461 was the number of members logged on, the number of guests logged on AND the number of people with email confirmation pending. I wanted to purge the data, but I don't want to lose other info. I also need my sons help on the server side of the issue, and he hasn't had the time to help. On 1/23/2013 we had 75 members and 216 guests (291 total). That was 9:23 PST-and was when Sub Press was selling The Shining.

As your Secretary of Space and Missile Defense, I just wanted to let everyone know not to worry about this. I've got a buddy at the UN that owes me a favor, he's going to twist some arms and put the screws to them. Also sent a guy over undercover last week, he was able to gain access to the highest levels of government and military ... I don't think anyone suspected him at all, he's a master of disguise. From the report I read, they welcomed him with open arms.

I find myself somewhat distrustful of any cabinet member who uses the term "jiggy"; I believe an explanation is in order. Either that or post a photo of yourself in period-appopriate Will Smith attire.

Re Roger Waters ... watched him in the Sandy Relief concert in December, was the best part of the show IMO. Also watched The Wall again a month or so ago, for the first time since it came out; didn't make much sense this time around either, even knowing all of the background info. Still love the music though.

Your choice of "Occupy" avatar was just sparking a memory of the "two hammers" is all, George.

That was the point of choosing it! I mean, aren't we all going to be sitting at the computer drunk and naked on the 16th? Or is it just me?

Nah, you're not alone George, however; I don't subscribe to the whole time and date thing - why do only on one day what can be done every day ???

By Royal Proclamation ....

Re "The Wall" - was fortunate enough to see Roger Waters full length stadium spectacular here in Sydney last year, and it was freaking awesome !!!!!
