The other boards I am on seem to get their biggest hits when something controversial is going on. It's like that phenomenon when people just have to stare at an accident.

This is not the way today was supposed to be going! Please go to User CP, And then Edit Options, and then Date & Time Options. There you will see Time Zone: In my case it says GMT -6 Central Time. If you live in New York it should say -5 Eastern Time. If it does not, change it. At some point during your The Cat Site membership, you should have changed this. It would say -5 for you because you are five hours behind Grenwich Mean Time (GMT) the time standard of the world. For me it says -6. This is why everybody sees different times but they only see the correct times if this setting was ever made.

Mine is set to GMT 5 but we are on dst which is why I think on my computer it say 1PM for the record of users. Is there a specific answer as to why so many people where on that day, or all we all just speculating?

You should be on -5 and right now the posting of this message should say 9:08 pm for you.

I have no idea why there was so many people online then. It may be that it was the first day of summer or summer soltice.. I wasn't around then, but maybe there was a contest of sorts. Or maybe there just isn't a reason and the cats are playing a collosal April Fools Joke on everyone! LOL It probably just happened...

I still have no interesting theories on why that date had so many members logged in.
This was kinda far down on the list...so I guess you could say this is just a bump.

Maybe if she'll tell us why it was so busy that day we can try

June 21st is the longest day of the year sunlight-wise, not hour-wise... I dont know about everyone else... I'm on more at night when kids are in bed, so this theory actually affords me less time.

Still wracking my brain. I was guessing there was an event happening. Someone had a baby. Someone had a surgery. Was someone's cat sick? Maybe a contest of some sorts. A virtual party? Wonder what the second place was... or better yet... what is the average number of TCS users online at any given time (or 12 pm)?

And does NOON have any specific significance? Why not 12:15, or 12:49??? Hm? Hmm? Hmmm?

Don't forget, at times I may join in on the forum and may even use the secret word, but I don't get any points!

Why do you think this particular day had more online users than any other day?
I have tried finding an answer to this question several times in the past, just out of curiosity.
I personally think the reason this particular day had the most users was because of the famous "Cat Site Crash". Of course...I can't wait to find out the real reason!

I kinda think it was just a fluke there were so many people on that day. Who knows.
