Activity level

polo_pro · 10-04-2006, 04:32 PM

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this topic, but it seems like the closest fit. For a long while, I've been tracking the online activity level in terms of number of people concurrently logged into Segway Chat. This is always reported at he bottom of http://forums.segwaychat.com/ for that exact moment in time when you pull up this page. They also have an indication of the highest level of activity in the past right next to it (172 as of this posting).

So not surprisingly, we've been collectively setting new "high water marks" for concurrently people viewing the forum all through August and Sept with the release of the i2 and the recall. How high do you think we'll go in the days leading up to Segfest? 200? 220?? 250???

ps - Maybe we should start a pool among Sefest attendees (say $5 each) and give the pot to whomever gets closest as of the final day of Segfest, eh? Of course, the winner may want also use some of his winnings to buy everyone a round at the bar as we all say our goodbyes! If folks are interested in this, I've got dibs on 208...by replying to this thread mentioning "$5" and your guess you'll be in the pool (and expected to throw the money into the pool at the start of Segfest).

(below is a script of a soon to be happening event at plomoh's house)

- Knock, Knock
Plomoh: Who's there?
Officious Voice: FBI
Plomoh: FBI?
OV: Yes sir. Sir, please open the door
- creeeeeeeeeak (door opening)
OV: Sir, are you Plomoh from SegwayChat (as he shows his badge)
Plomoh: Uh, yes sir. What is this about?
OV: Sir, please leave the questions to us. Did you recently place an online wager for $5 on the number of viewers of SegwayChat?
Plomoh: Oh, yes sir. I picked 208. Are you a glider? You here to join the pool? What kind of PT do you have? Did the FBI give it to you?
OV: Sir, PLEASE leave the questions to us. Please turn arounnd and put your hands on the wall.
Plomoh: What? Why?
OV: Turn around sir.
- sounds of a pat down
OV: Sir, pursuant to the recently passed legislation banning online gambline within the US, I am hereby placing you under arrest.
Plomoh: Huh? It was all in fun, it's not gambling, it was for buying a round of drinks!
OV: So you are saying that this $5 would go towards buying a round of alcoholic drinks for all Segway attendeeds?
Plomoh: Yes sir
OV: Sir, are you aware of a SegwayChat member called Neelix?
Plomoh: Oh yes, he is a great guy named Chris from up in the Bay area
OV: Sir, do you realize what he does for a living?
Plomoh: Living? He is still in school, living with his parents.
OV: Thank you sir. As he is attending this SegwayfesT, we will also be charging you with contributing to the delinquency of a minor. This little $5 stunt is getting more interesting.
- sounds of door shutting and people walking away
- OV: Please step this way
- Plomoh: Eeyoooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeee

(all tongue and cheeck, hope you know).

Awww man, Desert Seg/Steven, why'd you have to zero in on the legal ramifications of this! Here comes the moderator's ax ready to cut down another thread in its prime... 8^) 8^) 8^)

ps - I thought Eeyore was suppose to save me at the end of your skit...oh wait, I'm confusing this with Trigger and the Lone Ranger. (Mules just bray in a laughing way when this happens and go find another owner who'll feed them if they occasionally haul their *** around.)

Desert_Seg · 10-05-2006, 11:37 AM

Eeyore was too busy eating to worry about you as he knew that somebody on SC would be by to "look" after him and maybe take him home :-)

Thanks Jim! Wait until I get a little wine in me....a nice full bodied red does wonders!
