| I have added a second set of site building statistics: the number of news items posted. Here is a summary of what happened in the past month.
News Items
A total of 41 users posted 399 news items, or an average of just below 10 per user. The top 10 posters of news items were (in one particular order):
Randy Parker*
Pimpilicious*
Joe Keene*
Scott Mattson
Aviator*
Howie*
SC Moose
Ryan Walker
Kal El
Bobby
Names with an asterisk are in the top 10 posters of news items of active users.
These are also the numbers for the latter half of the month only. I just decided that this is an important part of OC and that I should track it, too.
Elections
A total of 31 users posted 1,446 new elections, for an average of 46.6 per user. The top ten posters of the past month (again, with asterisks denoting those in the top 10-all time in this category):
Eddy 9_99*
Scott Mattson*
Joe Keene
Chronicler*
Billy Mac
Western Dem
Alex Kohan
Mike Fouse*
SC Moose
Shark Sandwich
The following is a list of the top six site builders in terms of % increase in elections posted in the past month:
Western Dem
Shark Sandwich
Brian Graney
New Jerusalem
Joe Keene
James Rikard
As a collaborative website, OC needs the input and efforts of all its users in order to maintain its status as the greatest elections website on the internet. A big THANK YOU!! to all site builders! |
