    Hey, that cool secret #'s gig doesn't seem to work on my iMac. Well, no matter, I am sure I missed 500 by a couple hundred million anyway. I just wanted to check to see how many triple 6's must have ended up in my number.

    Safari doesn't have that bar on the bottom where it shows up. Get Firefox and try again.

    I remember some people posting random threads with the number of members and how many were viewing at the time, and I remember someone making a pretty big deal of there being 40-something people viewing the HAMB at once.

    Don't know my number - but guessing these numbers aren't fully legit since everyone needed to re-register after that big server crash.

    I thought I was below 100 from a post a few yrs back.. but I still can not see the number. How do I scroll to the bottom and keep my curser over my name.

    I've still got one of those left, mounted on a piece of stainless.

    Been here since before HRD and TSR. I think we were around 100-150 then. Times sure have changed.

    Viva la H.A.C.K.

    I'm not in the 1st 500, I'm number 698. Trailer Ed is 2 members before me. He joined 1 day before me. That means roughly 2 people per day were signing up in mid-2002. I bet now 2 people sign up every 10 minutes.
     
  24. 136? I've been here far to long. Wonder how much time I've spent on here?
    ...Nevernind, I don't want to know

    Those numbers aren't back to the begining, just the most recent incarnation of the HAMB. The previous numbers have been lost through upgrades and server crashes.

    I started out under a different user name, but that was so long ago that I've forgot who I was!!
     
  26. If you click on your profile and look at the web address box thingy majig, your number is at the end... on my Mac/ iPhone anyway.

    I remember 9/11 and all the buzz on the HAMB over what happened ... There were 200+ people viewing and that was huge- Long ago it use to say who was online on a simple page... Them were the days!

    I still have mine but it's kinda wrinkly and stuck to a card. Viva la H.A.C.K.!

    Wolf's still around, making art: http://www.dawolfdidit.com/ No he doesn't have any extras left either. :(
