Wow, what happened above, 3 days ago, to generate that many people in the forums? What'd I miss?

What do we need to do to break the record or get 1000 people online?

Well it's obvious that they were all here to get ready to celebrate my birthday on the 16th

EDIT: Further proof to back up this obvious fact is the timestamp falls on the 16th in my time zone

Most users ever online was 806, 12-16-2007 at 02:23 AM.

So they did come on my birthday heh.

Why? Do have have a birthday present to share with us all? Like, say, a DNF screenshot?

I think you do

Easy. You just need to say "DNF is cancelled", delete the DNF forum and the DNF page on the site, and you'll get a MILLION people online at the same time!

Why? If Joe wanted to run a real-world server stress test, all he'd have to do is get George to post a message like this in the DNF forum.

I think there are better suggestions

Betelgeuse · 12-18-2007, 07:36 AM

I was about to go too bed, maybe i'll stick around for a wee bit just for kicks.

That one post by Georgie boy has me all riled up, tis hard not to get carried away by something that has such an obvious answer.

christ.. im gonna be up all night.. I HAVE TO WORK TOMORROW YOU BASTARD!

To play a prank on us, just like that time he posted "It's done! (my pizza in the oven that is)"

KaiserSoze · 12-18-2007, 07:42 AM

We're at 187 users online and counting.

Keep em' coming folks!

What are you waiting for?

12-18-2007, 07:43 AM

OK I am in!

Announce another engine switch

avatar_58 · 12-18-2007, 07:52 AM

George do you HAVE to ask? You could show us a picture of your ass with a Duke tatoo and you'd generate hype

Honestly!

Kaiser would probably get a little excited by such a thing though.

Thriller · 12-18-2007, 07:54 AM

Bah, he´s going to continue his game until either christmass- or new years eve, and then he will release a single screenshot. We will then be happy for another year, and think the wait was all worth it.

We are sad, sad people.

If we get to 1,000 all by ourselves, there won't be anything left for George to do.

I think I'll go play some Lost Coast. You kids be nice.

Kristian Joensen · 12-18-2007, 08:55 AM

Yes but there needs to be a base for any of George's to "lift" the visitor count to 1000.

django · 12-18-2007, 08:58 AM

Don't make jokes about the game being canceled. It's NOT funny. My hope just went up a bit, and I want to have that feelin, just for a while before Mr Broussard comes back with the famous "...ah you're just reading too much into it".

Dennis · 12-18-2007, 09:06 AM

We actually forgot to answer his question:

"What do we need to do to break the record or get 1000 people online?"

a: Don't delete so much topics in this forum.
b: Post pictures of Kaiser actually eating his underwear.
c: Post another thumbnail.
d: Release a 5 min Full HD trailer 1920 X 1080 with 8.1 sound of DNF

Because I'm apparently the only anal one who seems to care where posts actually go.

Codey · 12-18-2007, 09:24 AM

Hey, I've been lurking on these here forums nearly every day since day dot, but haven't posted all that much in the last few years (sounds funny to say that).
I vaguely remember George mentioning early in the year, that they would like to release some video of Duke this year.
Maybe it was my overactive imagination, but I do have a good feeling we will get something substantial.

I know I've been good this year

oh and to the question:
A kick-ass, in your face, spreading the xmas cheer on the tip of his mighty boot, wise-cracking, babe saving, alien ass-kicking, deep veined muscle pulsing, coma inducing, brain hemeraging, over the top, internet clogging, orgasm of a IN GAME VIDEO
Ofcourse!

SyntaxN · 12-18-2007, 09:58 AM

Just got home and...thread made by GB.
You know what you have to do to get attention, even those small pics were enough

zwieback · 12-18-2007, 10:09 AM

...without actually releasing anything?
SOLUTION: Release a screenshot. Or better: say that you have hidden new media somewhere in the forum.

John · 12-18-2007, 10:27 AM

They could make a new ARG/Alternate Reality Game where they make a site with abunch of vague/hidden clues and hints, and by the end you win by finding a single new screenshot, except its like 60x60.

Ofcourse, they'd have to start it off by posting a thread here, which would generate people.

ryche · 12-18-2007, 10:48 AM

Bah...should post a time and date to do it, not just hope we all get on

or release DNF>....that'll do too hahahah

Or you know, they could just stop dicking around and show something.

John · 12-18-2007, 10:55 AM

Well obviously that's my first choice, but you and I both know that won't happen.

Atleast with an ARG theres something to *do* here, if only for afew minutes.

Also, ryche is correct in that if George posted a specific date and estimated time to get on the forums in advance, people would most likely listen to him and do it. Problem is when they come to find out it was just for fun (if it is

This could hold some relevance), there will be an angry e-mob on their hands.

KaiserSoze · 12-18-2007, 10:57 AM

So when are we gonna see this record broken?

We need something to lure people, ya know George?

Yeah well I think I saw a pig over the office earlier, but it might have just been a cloud.

Nukkus · 12-18-2007, 11:26 AM

i don't want to break any records. music is too valuable.

Thing called DNF love baby. DNF would blow the intternets.

Evil Angel · 12-18-2007, 11:42 AM

Hehehe what a tease. I friggin love 3DR.

This has gotta be something.... (please be a trailer, please be a trailer, please be....)
