So...Um....when is it going to be this year?:D

Anyone else wanna actively try to set up a day to do it sometime in the next 2 months.

Would it possibly crash RFD:eek:? Anyone in-the-know wanna let us know what's the supposed max number supported?

hmmm wonder if the mods will lock this for fear of an organized MOB logging online. :cheesygri

An idea occured to me that a lot of people will be on that day to BST their presents. HA!

how about right now and whoever is online can't logout until we beat it? that should make for some interesting threads.

I remember when the highest was around 200 people way back when. I disapeared off RFD for a good year and when I can back I almost couldn't recognize the place.

why do you care?

maybe it'll be so huge that if every1 was to log onto rfd on that one day, his computer would reboot just viewing the amount

Anyone remember what was going on that day?

I thought it was the boxing day sales in the past (mainly the '03 FS one) that bumped up the record?

I am sure it must have been some amazing pre-christmas 150% price matching bonanza with Staples.. :twisted:

That is the first time I've seen you post without sarcasm. Or maybe it just went over my head.

"when're we breaking this record?"

I never thought I'd see somebody abbreviate WHEN and ARE!

That's not the real record. That was a glitch when we upgraded our servers. The real record is about 2300 online Dec 24 last year (just before the boxing day stuff went live online). :)

i have a bold prediction. it will be more this year at around boxing time once the deals are posted. further, i predict it will be more the year after that.

Let me check The Google and see if "when're" is a real word.

I remember when 120 users online at once during the Logitech giveaway crashed the servers. :lol:
