Depends on how many are active, or even visit the forum anymore. Going by Last Online, oldest to most recent it's only page 6 out of 13 where the members have last looked at the forum since 2018 started. Quite a few of these members appear only to browse and not post, since their post count is at 0. If you sort by Posts ascending, it's page 10 before you get triple digits. This is another good reason why there was no vote - the difficulty of compiling a "fair" electoral register and the likely very low turnout in % terms You've also got people who don't have much interest in who moderates the forum, as long as it's there, it functions and they can use it. Some people do have an interest however, and things like this give them a chance to exercise it.

Interesting Footnote. We currently have 613 existing members on this forum.After perusing every page.A rough estimate would be that somewhere between 30/35 people participated in this discussion,please correct me if i am wrong.Maybe someone has the time and patience to work it out exactly.35over613 is a very small fraction(percentage) Less than 6%!! Just an observation
This is exactly what I have been saying, if we can get those "lurkers" those who are signed up, read a few but don't contribute.. If we can get even half or a quarter of those 613 can you imagine the conversations that would occur (positive ones).

May I say that I think that was sort of the point of the all the "Updates Club" humor, that the whole idea of a club is very silly, and of course there isn't really such a thing and of course anyone can post updates. I sincerely hope no one felt excluded because of it. Granted that actual competitiveness might be unbecoming because there isn't really a competition (or a prize that I can think of) but at least to me, all the preposterous non-existent club rules that number13 posted went a long way to help emphasize just how absurd indeed the whole idea of an exclusive club really is - even if there may be a few with the enthusiasm and fortitude to stalk Big Finish's growing number of media platforms and literally lean on the refresh key until something actually happens, who we are able to name as the non-members of this now-legendary non-organization.
Of course barnabaslives is exactly right that all the alleged 'Rules' of Updates Club were my bit of satirical fun about the updating game which I also enjoyed playing and I assumed everyone would 'get' that. And would understand that irony is not 'the same as bronzy, except made of iron'. (To re-paraphrase Blackadder.)
Any further comments on the subject should be sent by owl only to: Number 13 (Non-Secretary), Updates Club, Mornington Crescent, Emerald City, Atlantis.
(And congratulations to our three new Mods! Thanks for taking the role on.)
