Mr. Duke, I think this would be a wonderful idea. It would be awesome if you could announce this but somehow keep the main April 6th thread up on top. Like put this at the bottom of that post perhaps?

Just as an fyi here. You guys certainly can give this a shot, but you have to realize that even after the forum is locked (no access) the software will continue to generate the users online information. Look at the V2 archive forums as an example.

So if you get a bunch of people online on the last day - cool, but it will continue to generate the users online on a minute by minute basis after that, so that total will always change, even after the freeze.

Now, if you're trying to beat the all time high of 882 or whatever, that's not going to happen. :)

EDIT: We're actually only trying to beat the "active over 24 hours" number, which is 227.

Right, which is what I'm saying is going to be pointless because 24 hours later it will say something else.

We could definitely do something like that, if someone grabs a screenshot. But that will mean someone will have to be standing by snapping screenshots all day long.

Don't get me wrong - not trying to downplay this effort - it's awesome. Just trying to make sure guys aren't setup to be disappointed.

Well, we'll certainly have to take screens of the name list, but if we beat the record, the number will stay.

Dang. He is right, the list keeps changing. Well at least we have the contact thread! We can still beat that one total though and if we beat the other total then well, even better.

Asked him about it this morning.

An exact time? Not really - I'm planning on sometime in afternoon. The reason is that I'll have to do a few things related to the forum first, and it could take me awhile.

I love HIH. Thanks for the memories.
