how many people are in the community?

#1 PCGamer said around 15,000.

#2 Thats a fairly good sum

#3 When u look at member profiles, the url will have a number either from 1- the number of people ...try ur luck until u see the highest.

#4 Andrew himself is the number 16 thousand and something, and he's a member since November 2002! Seems impressive if every 16k are still active... Well, I'm not so sure, this is the first gaming community I take part.

Edit: I am the #15615, member since October 2002. So, between me and Andrew there was one month and about one thousand sign ins... still looks impressive to me.

#5 Sort of related: Are the "big 4" gonna release some sales figures? Has it been a quarter yet? Would be interesting to see. I'm not expecting huge sales, but it would be some cool stats not only for GG to use, but us developers too.

#6 It looks to be in the area of 20,157 as the newest member, Adam Hubert who joined at Feb 25, 2003 at 20:22 PST, is 20157. Of course by the time you read this another has probably joined.

#7 So who is the first member? I looked at the garage game plans and Rick Overman has april 30, 2000. I've been a member since nov 30, 2000. Though I've yet to really contribute anything :).

#8 Damn, beat me to it... Dec 2000, number 527... But, I'm am not a number, I'm a free man!

#9 Just joined! Glad to be apart of the community.

#10 Over 23,000 members as of Jan 2003 and rapidly growing since the launch of the game publishing arm of GarageGames.
