66 user(s) active in the past 1500 minutes

Something tells me that the 1500 minutes part is not normal...

hmmm, that's weird... why don't you tell me your age and we see if we can solve that problem?

[Astyanax]

(Smart alecky mode): "your age"

 

Nope, I don't think that solved the problem

[Guest Azrael]

we can try, you big sissy

I was conducting an experiment. 1500 hours is a little more than a day. So the number of users active should have kept building and building but it did not, it got as high as 70ish then dropped (how could it drop)?

 

I also want to see if max number on line was simply the highest value of "active in the last X" or if it means truely the number on-line at one moment; this still isn't clear.

That is odd. I had noted that the count dropped, but thought that maybe when people log off, the count gets skewed? Well, that doesn't seem likely, though.

 

Still, there were more people counted than normal (maybe ~10 times the normal amount)- perhaps there's an unmentioned upper limit to the time value, say 120 or 150 minutes?

I wondered about that but the field remained as 1500 in the admin panel so who knows?

[Astyanax]

Or perhaps it is working properly?

 

Maybe the same 70-odd people are visiting the site, and the number went down because some of the "active" people went beyond the 1500 minute scope?

Nope because I only set it that morning.
