Hello people, I just found something really cool and funny:

There have been all these wacky guesses about who were the first people on Armorgames. But they can't really be proven. Now I have managed it! Here's how:

Click the link. Notice that the URl says 00001. I looked at my own page and saw it too had a very long number. I guess that every time someone signs up on Armorgames, they are assigned such a number, a bit like you IP address of your computer. So I will now release the first five users on armorgames:

Armorgames
DanielMcNeely
Luka_M's
jmtb02
John

(Please notice that for some reason, the users 000002-000004 don't exist, maybe because they were banned users or used for something else.)

Have fun with this cool trick!

yea and i tried to find the 100th thread and i cant find it


It seems that some numbers are simply skipped or the threads and users were deleted. The number, though, is no longer used.

Nah, maybe just 4. Sure, I'll sue Raptor.


Yay!!! Sue RAptor, Sue Raptor...

I got 217084. That's the same as Firetail's, so Tennisman is wrong. So people aren't given random numbers.

What's the caps key, anyways?
I always use shift...


The caps is the one that has a little light on it. It's above the shift on the Mac.

Maybe 1000 people got deleted or were abducted by aliens.

Like raptor said, excluding the aliens part, many members were most likely banned...

But it looks to me like if a user is deleted, the number isn't used again. Like an old tire: Once a great thing, now on a dump waiting those 700 years to decompose (That's how long it takes for rubber, I think).

Lol you don't even know me.


Sorry, I was a bit mean there.

but how is that possible if i was here when we hit 200000


Yeah, you came around the same time as the 200,000 users check point. I have no idea how to explain that. Maybe there aren't as many users as the thing says. I'm not saying Armorgames is a cheat, just that to check if the thing was really correct, you'd have to count a lot of users. And I bet that there are way more than 150,000 at the least, so it would take forever and a day.

They seem to be places were people used to give comments on flash games featured in the site. I however do not know when the transition was made.

Yes, now you just told us. very stupid. But that they are like that weird Arcade forum that I just recently found, that can't be used? Because then you should correct yourself and say 'secret forums that can't be accesed'.

I did find the hidden forums one day,
And Action Figures and Clothing some did say.
I worked out how to post a thread,
Which got put to bed.

For a mod did not like the idea,
That posted in threads could just disappear.
