MNL Numbers 09/10 - A big thanks...

[Chris]

So here they are, often requested via pm or by facebook/msn it's the MNL numbers for this season, there's a lot of thanks for this season, so if you hate all the crap at the top, scroll down past all the fixtures

But before all my ramblings, and incase it gets missed, a very very big thanks to Nott Simpson for manning the desk during the season, the service wouldn't be what it is without your help! The Stub for being a coding guru and improving the service when it threatened to be too popular! James for being the coding genius behind MNL, fixing it when I break it and for keeping it alive!

Giving us a grand total of 40,318 unique viewers for this season, a rather amazing total for the service!

Compared to 08/09's totals...
5 games with over 1000 views compared to 1 game for 08/09.
A lowest total of 240 compared to 53 in 08/09.
A grand total of 40,318 unique views compared to 21,478 unique views for 08/09.
An average of 568 unique views compared to 330 unique views for 08/09.
10 games not covered compared to 13 during the 08/09 season.

Finally, the numbers above reflect a 188% increase in MNL unique views this season over last season!

So with these numbers in mind, a big thanks must go out to all the people who've helped us with updates over the course of the season, hopefully they all have a nice warm feeling inside In no particular order Sharlene, Soundwave1, AndyDevils, CardiffDevil, Carl, Claire, Clare, Cookies_naughtyboy, DevilsDan, Dave1140, Simon, Derek6368, Holl_5, Oryx, Diafol, Drainage, Finny, Legend777, Gary, Gavin, Gazza272, Ger-Devils, Merthyr_Devil, Janet, Iceraider, Liam, Niwoke, Paul, Paul The Viper, PJ Blaze, Russky, Samidevils, Steph, The Stub, Devils2001uk, Wildthing, Andy Blaze, David Mercer and Steve. If i've missed someone off, give me a slap via pm! The list is also a mixture of forum usernames and actual names, unfortunately some of you I don't know what names you go by on here

A special thanks to OJ/Nott Simpson for helping us run Match Night Live! again over the season, without his help the service wouldn't be half what it is and it's thanks to him we continue to help those of you stuck at home, even if it is "childish" and "disgustingly biased" :lol:

A very very big thank you as well to all the people that have donated to the site this season, without your help it's very likely we couldn't have continued to run Match Night Live! for the number of games we have done, so your donations really are very much appreciated by myself and James!

And finally, thanks to James and Gareth for actually coding the damn thing, if it were me on my own we'd still be looking at a design very similar to Steeltalk, and we all know how pants that is Thanks to James also for handling the server move towards the start of this season, chances are i'd have broken everything, but as it was we stayed up and continued to be the best

Chris.

No problems with helping out, sorry for me being a bit slower than normal with my texts with pens/goals for the Blaze - Few too many beers during the day/game

 

[osh]

Huge pat on the back for you guys for all your hard work plus great cooperation from all your texters during the season. I've had to rely so much on this service during the season due to the amount of time spent out of the country. Brilliant

I wish to second this vote of thanks as without him and The Stub there wouldnt have been as much MNL coverage had these two guys not been available! A first class service!!!!

 

[kettdevil1]

And whilst we are having a warm and fuzzy moment... A big thanks not only to everyone that is involved in MNL but also to Chris for the whole site, it really is a great place.

 

[Wannabe2]

Thanks to you guys for doing an incredibly professional job, without all your hard work we simple morons wouldnt have had the foggiest of notions what was going on half the time. Thank you everyone of you, you have been a god send to many of us, and may it long continue.

 

[Budgie]

With a tear in my eye, a huge thanks to all at the Inferno as it's a fab site>

I don't think most appreciate how much effort you guys must put in!

I don't think most appreciate how much effort you guys must put in!

I'll drink to that !

(in fact, after this weekend, I'll drink to anything) :lol:

I wonder if I've got any cash left for an Inferno jersey...?

 

[Ger-Devils]

Mines a bow down the rink when you see me for the new season! :lol:

 

[Shaz]

no probs with helping out, will be more than happy to help out again next season on the texts updates.

These figures are fantastic and a testament to the hard work you Guys put in for the Devils' fan community. Thank you so much for the awesome effort - and particularly MNL which is a beacon for all us 'stay-at-homers' who can't make away matches!

 

[Jono72]

[THF mode]It's just a load of disgustingly biased, childish rubbish[/THF mode] :lol:

Seriously though congratulations, it's a great service

 

[Jane]

Agree with everyone that MNL is brilliant and please keep it going

 

[Mark666]

Thanks guys. The inferno and MNL is a brilliant service.

Without it my life would, without doubt, be noticeably less good.

Bring on next season.
