Okay, I have not been able to be on much lately, so I don't know if I managed to do whatever it was last time that made the numbers go skewed...

Posts: (not including this one): 17914
Donuts: 242

... .once again the things are odd.

I had 48 posts, according to the post count.
I should have therefor only gained 48 donuts.
I gained 66, instead.


I'm almost 100% sure that this is due to a forum or subforum counting for donuts but not for posts.
Best guess is the Avatar Games area not counting towards posts?

Which is going to throw off our non-Grog-event counts.

So, yes. Time to gather more information!

Damnation.
This requires more investigation. Let's call Sherlock Holmes!

EDIT:
This post was my number 11753.

EDIT:
After posting in the Knufefl & Avatar subforum, it raised to 11754.
So no, it's not that subforum :|

Okay but where else could it be??
I'm not POSTING in that many places!
It can't be here in the chat forums, right?
We should maybe test out each forum in turn...

We could.
Apparently I had 11758 posts before this one, let's see how many I have after.

EDIT:
11759.
So, yes, it was counted here too.

Do you think maybe instead of something like a specific forum, it's posts within too close of a time? (As in maybe, if you post too often too quickly it only counts one of them?)

It would be odd.
While posts in a certain subforum may not count (spam does not count, so other subforums may be set the same way, purposely or by mistake) the timeframe thing should be coded...
Which is one of those things that are not impossible, but would they be worth the effort from starkad's point of view? Seems unlikely.

Aaargh.
So frustrating.

Maybe I'm just completely dyslexic and didn't notice somehow??

And I'm getting the numbers wrong??

But how do we test for that.... hmmm....

Okay, Amura, can I ask a huge favor?

Sometime during a caravan, please YOU check my profile for posts, and I'll always check this thread before I post anywhere else, and the minute I see you've listed the posts, I'll also post with the number I see, and the donuts at the time....
and if we can manage it twice in the same caravan visit, we can probably see if it's just me not reading the statistics correctly?

Am I really the only one this is happening with?

Who else checked their posts and donut counts DURING the caravan, instead of just when the caravan ISN'T here?

I haven't checked them myself, but now I think I should. Just to figure this mystery out!

But, yeah, if I remember about it I'll sure check your profile too.

Thanks -- this is itching at my curiosity!
