Well, in 24h, we've come 45% of the way to the next stage
That's pretty good if you ask me
We've plateaued fast, but we're still doing better than we did in Definition
Now we just wait for the numbers to trickle up
@RydwolfPrograms it's just occurred to me that's almost half way
And in one day
I think a little stagnation is fine given that we've experienced like a week of growth in one day

what happens when the site reaches 100 committed? it's currently at 94
nothing
it's 200 committed when things happen :p
oh -.-
it goes into private beta, and everyone who committed has a chance to use the site
ok nice
well it got 100 in a day so it should be at 200 tomorrow right? :p
oh yeah come to think of it has any of the commitment stage promotion mentioned that the first beta is committers only
that could push some people over the hurdle of logging into a51 to go and commit :P

@lyxal Ooh true, we should be at 50% by the time I wake up in the morning
If I do. Always a risk of Giant Spiders.
Nobody ever thinks it'll happen to them.

@lyxal I advertised the site on discord too :P
@Jacob hah linear mortal

We are slowing down by a lot, but that might be because america‘s sleeping rn.
It's been slow for 15 hours, I think it's just that the reddit threads are no longer on top
I still have 0 referrals despite spamming a ton of discords :/

Sadge
I just got one referral
 
2 hours later…
15:35
Well that's disappointing, not a single follow overnight
Have we re-advertised in r/programminglanguages yet? If not, that's probably going to be a second big inrush
Now that we're out of definition, I'm going to send some more targeted referral links
I'll try to get my friend and my computer science teacher, and when I present to my computer science class in a few weeks I'll throw in a plug for it
Trying to think if I know anyone else IRL who may be interested
A few people in discords complained that the requirement of 8 questions/answers was too high for them :/
Whoa it's 8?
Well, it's not like they actually need to follow thru
They get their commitment back in 6 months no matter what, and I doubt two more sites will reach private beta during that time
I know, some people are uncomfortable with lying
Oh it's actually 10
Most people don't know or care about what the consequences are if you don't do this
hi
oh are there consequences?
15:46
@parz hi
i figured i would just ask 2 or 3 questions lol
@RydwolfPrograms in a few weeks uff
how long do we have to go though commitment?
I mean if it takes less than two months I'll be shocked
Definition took three
@Jacob That's perfectly fine, there is no real consequence, except hurt pride
but commitment just requires the people, and everyone who followed during defenition got an email
so thats like 90% of our people right there
15:47
I got the email way late btw, only after I commited. And my commitment mail didn't arrive at first too, I had to resend it
I think it's likely the mail bot is bugged and not everyone got their mail
i got mine on time
ok
mine went to spam folder
It was like 10 hours late for me
@Jacob ouch
It's probably going to take some patience to get through this stage
15:55
8 mins ago, by Seggan
how long do we have to go though commitment?
mhm
Unless it's 4 months for both stages combined in which case we panik
> and an additional four (4) months to complete Commitment
we good
16:16
@Seggan we might have a rep issue too, if we try to fish users from reddit/discord
We're quite close on rep though, we should focus on raw numbers for now
@mathcat im sure most PL subreddit users have used SO
Raw numbers don't hurt our high rep user count
Better to have lots of low rep users and a few high rep ones than a few high rep ones
makes sense
Plus we're like 60% of the way there already
16:37
I wonder if I can advertise it on r/programming.
probably off-topic
aw
Oh wow, we've got some truttle1 staff on board!
16:59
huh
"skylar/cark"
I'm pretty sure nailuj has commited too.
idk who those are
