I remember those days, and I can assure you the online user record would have been achieved, at least in large part, by a small group of players all logging in at once with every player account they have ever played with. It was a regular "thing" people did back then.


That, and the user record was to a large part attributable to this game getting known at 4chan in some way or other, with a lot of 4chan users coming over to particracy in a very sudden rush. So sudden that Wouter even created new countries.

Solche und ähnliche Geschichten erzählt man sich über die Leutseligkeit Karls des Großen.

They raided and caused all kinds of havoc. Particracy was for quite some time overrun with /b/ folks. I believe (though I'm not certain) that's how Stephen may have first found us.
