How many active users do you think there are?

about 15–20

Gosh, I am not good with numbers, and I don’t really look at things that way. Not a lot though.

Sometimes I roll my eyes at some of the answers, because they seem to be phoned in, and you could win money if you placed a bet on what some Jellies answers will be.

I’m fairly immobile usually when Fluthering.

I want numbers, Jellies….
For all I care you make them up, but I need numbers!

My guess is that the number is much larger if you allow “active to include “infrequent”.

Fair point.
And the number you guess?

C’mon guys, I need numbers.
How else will I manage to do calculations… ~

24.73

43

18

Now we’re getting somewhere.

@rebbel Is it time for a roll call?

Ssshhhhhh, don’t tell anyone; this is one, in disguise…

I’m here to add to the number :P

22?

I have 25 users in my Fluther who post at least once in awhile, although some haven’t posted in several months.

@Brian1946 You always show up in unexpected places. Sometimes I thought you were gone forever :(

The best way to get a close guesstimate is to “follow” everyone who answers a question here. We just have to agree on how long the tally should continue in order to allow all the “active” members to show up.

I suspect this is something JP could figure out when he feels better.

There were 149 social responses and 97 general responses to questions posted on 19 December 2018.

Using the probability density here

and carefully defining active by examining the pigs entrails I had left-over from another investigation I conclude that the number of active Fluther participants is :

325

I’m number 1!

How do we count major users like Zen and Auggie who pop in and out?

Active ish .

The numbers are in:
It’s 25.
25 active members.
Including me, and two active ish members.

I can count on the top of my head several who haven’t responded here. Your methodology is specious, dear.

It’s very sound.
I predicted 25, and my conclusion is 25.
Sounds as solid as a rock to me.
25 it is.
No more argument.
Done.
Dusted.

….. Dear.

^^Fake news!

“No more argument…” that is thenmost hilarious thing I’ve heard in this place!

I got 41 in a much more scientific assessment.
