Winning the game since 3 years
« on: August 25, 2011, 12:59:15 am »
Tonight, this incarnation of Omnimaga website and forum turned 3 years old. Although the previous Omnimaga website had its share of success, the majority came on the current version, reaching activity levels never seen before on any calculator-related website during the 2010-11 school year and beating every old Omni website records in the process.

In addition to that, Omnimaga has been the home of various major products such as Axe Parser and later versions of Ndless, which both did their share of help to bring even more freedom to the entire TI community, then later introduced Prizm development.

Despite branching out towards computer discussions and higher involvment in the music scene in the past year, we still managed to keep a big focus on calculator game development, which was Omnimaga goal since the resurrection on August 25th 2008. Since then, calculator development took about 35% of the 182015 forum posts.

The second half of 2011 seems to have been marked with a small decrease of activity towards the calculator scene compared to the second half of 2010, but hopefully things continue to progress as new calculator breakthroughs are made.

On a related note, Omnimaga as a whole, not just in its various website forms, will turn 10 years old on September 1st 2011.

UPDATE: Added static graphic comparing each year's activity, spanning from August 25th to the 24th the year after.

* ephan lost.

This is great news, maybe when September comes the calculator zone will be more awake, because of school starting? I don't know, but it's what happened to me.

And 3 years of this website is great!

Yeah I was more a bit worried because sometimes we went below last year's activity this Summer. I added a new graph showing each of the forum year (from Aug 25th until the next Aug 24th) in the first post and below:



It could possibly just because of last year's shift from 2009 to late 2010 levels, while it could be another lull. A lot of people went in vacation compared to last year, though. Also it doesn't help that I was much less active than the previous year x.x

Yay Omnimaga!  :D
I haven't been too active during the summer, but I'll probably be more active during the school year.
