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
lyxal
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
lyxal
nothing
it's 200 committed when things happen :p
Jacob
oh -.-
lyxal
it goes into private beta, and everyone who committed has a chance to use the site
Jacob
ok nice
well it got 100 in a day so it should be at 200 tomorrow right? :p
Unrelated String
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

okay good

@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.
mousetail
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 :/
3 hours later…
mathcat
13:11
Sadge
I just got one referral
2 hours later…
Rydwolf Programs
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
mousetail
A few people in discords complained that the requirement of 8 questions/answers was too high for them :/
Rydwolf Programs
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
mousetail
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
parz
hi
Jacob
oh are there consequences?
mousetail
15:46
@parz hi
Jacob
i figured i would just ask 2 or 3 questions lol
Seggan
@RydwolfPrograms in a few weeks uff
how long do we have to go though commitment?
Rydwolf Programs
I mean if it takes less than two months I'll be shocked
Definition took three
mousetail
@Jacob That's perfectly fine, there is no real consequence, except hurt pride
Seggan
but commitment just requires the people, and everyone who followed during defenition got an email
so thats like 90% of our people right there
mousetail
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
Seggan
i got mine on time
Jacob
ok
mine went to spam folder
mousetail
It was like 10 hours late for me
Seggan
@Jacob ouch
Rydwolf Programs
It's probably going to take some patience to get through this stage

Rydwolf Programs
4 months
Seggan
mhm
Rydwolf Programs
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
mathcat
16:16
@Seggan we might have a rep issue too, if we try to fish users from reddit/discord
mousetail
We're quite close on rep though, we should focus on raw numbers for now
Seggan
@mathcat im sure most PL subreddit users have used SO
Rydwolf Programs
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
mathcat
makes sense
Rydwolf Programs
Plus we're like 60% of the way there already
mathcat
16:37
I wonder if I can advertise it on r/programming.
probably off-topic
Seggan
already done
mathcat
aw
Oh wow, we've got some truttle1 staff on board!
Seggan
16:59
huh
mathcat
"skylar/cark"
I'm pretty sure nailuj has commited too.
Seggan
idk who those are
