Some xnations stats
OK it's only the 6th of December, but I just had a look at some of the board stats here and I was blown away by what I saw!
Webmaster traffic to the board has tripled, and that has caused a big increase in posts, threads, and most importantly new registered users to the board. In fact, just in the past few days we've had 43 new webmasters join xnations! This must be a record or something...
Thanks to everyone who is participating in this growing community!

Actually I see that Juge has quietly snuck up into second place. He has 13 to StuartD's 14. It's a close race. Unfortunately I'm not in it. Oh well.

I haven't given up yet. Hehe. It's pretty obvious it will be run on referrals and not messages though.

Just wanted to let StuartD know he had some competition. Getting worried yet Stuart? 
P.S. Since I wrote that it's become a 14:14 tie.

Don't worry, I've fully been aware of Juge's sneakiness... I've been watching.
Oh, and I've fully got a handle on the situation... just you watch

Yup, she's hot all right. That's why I use it for my banners and avatars, since my site was originally based just on content like this. She is HOT!
