4 or 5 of those at the least are me . I visit ur site regularly Oranje, the dutch AAR is awesome, 20 chapters and still on the 1600's. Do you plan to play all the way to 1792? i hope so, for the readers sake of this excellent AAR

Brendiaz,

I think Oranje means you only count as ONE visitor (even if all of US HERE think you're worth WAY over one! <g> ) because he is counting signatures in his guestbook, not the number of times you have been (unless you are signing the guestbook every time!)

No, sorry Rio, wish it were like that.
The way it's counted is twofold:
the little counter at the bottom of the page counts the pageviews (all of them) but only for the homepage (where the links for the AAR are).
The count I posted com from another counter, which counts all visitors to the homepage.
Difference is that people often go someplace else on the site, only to return to the homepage again afterward, before they leave.

So, if someone checks the site several times a day, he's being counted as many times.
If he/she lingers on the site during one visit, returning to the homepage several times, he's only counted once.

So yes, many visitors may be counted more than once.

If someone bookmarks the url for the faq and goes there directly on the other hand, he's not counted at all

btw you can access the counter yourself, by clicking the 'nedstat' icon near the bottom of the homepage.

Hmmmm!!

Well in that case there may be some odd results due to one or more of us accessing from work when the boss walks by or accessing it at home if our significant other walks by... <g> Too bad the guestbook can't be programmed with a macro !

Just so you know, the 607 unknown visitors were a hive from the Borg protectorate of Krbdll.
