Okay, the new strip is up. Check it out - this one is poster-worthy, if you ask me. Also, if you get a chance, please click the reddit link!
As always, comments, discussion, criticism are welcomed here.

Subject: well
Our last potential "department head" position has been filled - Glory of Gallifrey is going to play the role of our Ship's Counselor, Venn Constantine. Venn will have been on board for a year or so prior to our game.

Unfortunately, there is a delay with today's update. TL has taken a new job, and is a bit behind on the strip. She had planned to have it done last night, or this morning at the latest. As soon as there is an update, I will post it.

I thought that you did VERY well with the datrons and such. I actually assumed you must have been doing some sort of research (trek or theoretical science)... so it was good enough to fool me!

Subject: derailed by dolphins
The dolphin entries are cute, but remember - I'd rather we keep the roster free of things we aren't planning to use at least every now and then. If you are going to even refer to an NPC in passing on anything resembling a regular basis, make an entry. If not... hey, ceteaceans are a neat idea, but there's a reason they have zero screen time in any trek series. 
Now, on a more serious note: I am LOVING the posting I'm seeing, but I don't want us to get bogged down in too many details before the actual mission starts. We're going to aim to have the ship underway somtime next week (in real time). If something isn't wrapped up, you can backpost.

Subject: cetaceans
This is not a typo - this is canon Trek (though they have never been shown on any TV series, to my knowledge). Galaxy class vessels have a dedicated crew for cetacean research... has to do with three dimensional navigation and other dolphin-y stuff.
I'd say, deck 12 or deck 15.

Check the first page of the thread. I have uploaded a doc I compiled that contains the full compliment of officers and enlisted crew for the ship, broken by department.

As needed is fine. Also, pretty much any of your officers can serve bridge shifts (need rank of ensign or above).

Topic: RDI Stats 2009
Subject: indeed!
It is very cool that traffic has picked up in the way that it has. From a pure page views standpoint, I have to say that the name generators and the comics have been a resounding success.
However, I'd really like to see more of those people stop to enjoy the community that is the Inn. There are obviously a lot of gamers out there who visit us. How do we get them to stick around and game with us?

Topic: RDI Stats 2009
Subject: regional breakdown
I know this is coming, so here are the top ten countries that visit RDI.
Not surprisingly, the USA is responsible for the most visits. However, we're seen a slight trend towards globaliztion this year - US visits represent only 57.3% of our visits.
Number two, trending way down, is the land of mooseses, maple syrup, mounties, and snow. Canada represents 12.5% of our visits.
The UK is third, up to 8.2%. Australia has taken over fourth with 2.1%. Germany follows at fifth with almost the exact same stats - 2.1%.
The rest of the top ten:
6. the Netherlans (1.9%)
7. Sweeden (1.4%)
8. Finland (1%... good to see them in that top ten!)
9. [not set] (0.86%)
10. Denmark (0.77%)
11. (since we don't have ten actual countries in the top ten) Brazil (0.76%)
2008 stats: Not surprisingly, the USA is responsible for the most visits. However, we're much more international than the average bear - US visits represent only 58.4% of our visits.
Number two, with a strong showing, is the land of mooseses, maple syrup, mounties, and snow. Canada represents almost 21% of our visits.
The UK is third, with 6.4%. The Netherlands are fourth with 2.1%. The rest of the top ten (down to where we drop below 1% for each) are Qatar, Australia, Iceland, Poland, Germany, and Poland.

I promised to run stats for the same period as we did last year. Last year's numbers follow in italics. Here we go!
These are according to Google analytics for the period of September 23 - October 23.
32,310 visits, resulting in 153,263 page views, from 20,116 visitors. Of these visits, 13,282 were from returning visitors.
2008 stats: 11,082 visits, resulting in 72,635 page views, from 4,081 unique visitors. Of these visits, 7,265 were from returning visitors.
Most days see 700-800 unique visitors to the Inn, though we do have quite a few days with more than 1000 (top day was 1342).
2008 stats: Most days see 200 (or a few more) unique visitors to the Inn.
The most common visitor (as with most websites) visited only once (59% of the time). However, we have good loyalty - the second most common percentage was from people who visited 201 or more times (7% of the time). Another 17% visited at least fifty times in the time period.
2008 stats: The most common visitor (as with most websites) visited only once (34% of the time). However, we have incredible loyalty - the second most common percentage was from people who visited 201 or more times (27% of the time).
Our #1 traffic source is Google - 37% of visits. Direct links are second, with 23%. Stumbleupon has given us good traffic (11% this month), though that is not necessarily typical. The Giant in the Playground site was responsible for 5% of our traffic.
2008 stats: Our #1 traffic source is direct links (bookmarks, typing in the address, etc) - 50.48% of visits.
Google is #2, with 29%.
Yahoo is a distant third, with just under 5%.
The single most used page on the site, bar none, is the elven name generator - responsible for a whopping 43,065 views. However, Loaded Dice is very strong, with 30,787 views. The dwarven name generator is very popular, as well, coming in at number three with 9,587 views. Other popular pages (aside from the main page and the forums) are the town generator (9,249 views) and the dice roller (4,738 views).
2008 stats: The most used pages (aside from the front page and the main page of the forums,) are the dice roller (5219 page views) and the town generator (3997 page views). Gee, sounds like I should create more tools!
Anyway, I thought these might be interesting to some Innmates.

And yes, we did notice the huge number of threads... that's why these type of threads have their own section.

Thank you for your kind words, Dragonblood. It's nice to be recognized for your efforts.
That being said, I will repeat a mantra I have used many times in the past: I provide this website, but it's the members who make it the community that it is. Without those who come here, the site would be nothing. So thanks to all of you!
