Interesting that the bandwidth doesn't very closely match the visitors after the spike. Fewer people, but staying longer and reading more, I guess.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks, ita, I love the graphs (but then again, it's me - I would have liked them even if their content were less relevant).

I was just going to remark on that, but ita was quicker. If I only had time to play with those numbers, find correlations and geek out properly.

As far as thread naming goes, I feel like a similar pattern often repeats itself. We have several suggestions of short, clever thread titles. Then someone combines them into one longer, clunkier, less clever title. Everyone but me raves over it. It is selected.
Sigh.
Okay, this is so my personal ish.
Carry on.

You could do a paper ...

But if well combined (which I think this one is, aside from my aforestated interrobang issues (how about ??!?!!?! ?)), wouldn't that rate as cleverer?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I'm with Burrell on the pattern. Although I think this one's pretty much okay.

Clearly the judgement about what constitutes clever is subjective. In my book, longer and overly complexicated (not a word, but should be) is almost always less clever.

Also slap dash jumbles strike me as less clever, most of the time. I don't like combos to work two popular suggestions into one please-em-all title, either.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I like the unlikely pairing of referants along a funny hinge. But I prefer the layering of allusions, and I also like the sillier image of Jack demanding "Who are you baking for?!?" I don't know which of the earlier shorter would be deemed wittier, but none were even remotely as amusing.

Not enough, so go back to what you were doing, young lady. Only 5 weeks of logs.
(I can start keeping more, if you want)
