Hilarious to see what horrors and predictions everyone thought of should the game ever hit 20K sales.

By Maxwell's math anyone who isn't a 10k ID or below is considered a "noob" nowadays.

What about 12000 :P

How many of them have alts? Its just like, what if you send them a PM so it'd email them, and told them about the new blockland?
A lot of them stopped playing in like, 09.

It's funny how back then it was a big deal to have 5,000 IDs.
Sometime someone in 2016 will read this and think,
"It's funny how back then it was a big deal to have 50,000 IDs. Now we have 500,000."

I cannot imagine Blockland with 20k players. The horror of scrolling through 200 servers is unimaginable.

Don't we usually have 120 - 200 servers now?

I always liked knowing that my original ID was 1297.

I remember feeling "special" because I was part of a small community for a great game.
Took me awhile to realize that the game would only get better with more people playing it.

I've seen some great add-on authors since, and I can't wait till blockland gets on steam.

yeah, but half of them are usually empty so it doesn't really matter.

When we hit 4k users I remember being on a 4k party server. It was a big deal to players because it actually took quite a few months to get from 3k to 4k.
