Statistics

Many games developers these days have integrated online features into their games which allow them to track what is going on. In the long run this can help improve the game by adding features that users want, or assist when developing future games. Beta tests also include statistics - for example Halo Reach when it had the public beta tracked where the most players died, and the areas that were least visited in order to design the maps better.

This brings me to the next point - we have some statistics for the blog. We've hit over 1100 views and while many suspect that it is just Liam constantly hitting F5 I can now reveal this isn't true. 1,069 views have been from the UK with 26 from the US, 3 from Russia, 3 from Singapore and 1 from the only people in South Africa to own a computer. While 91% of our views are from Windows, less than 1% are from Macs.

In all honesty, even I am quite surprised by these statistics.
So a big hello to our American fans, and to the lone civilian of South Africa who knows exactly where the future is at. And just to remind you that the competition to meet us and Selena is still open. We might even throw Demi Lovato into the mix if that tempts you.
Enter the competition guys! You know you want to.
