Lol JW, not really a fair comparison though is it?

At least our music's better than hers, though!

I'm amazed. we actually show up somewhat on the graph when compared to Starcraft...

(As you'll note on JW's link, we stay flatlined through the whole graph when compared to Madonna.)

Well, we outrank commander keen. Obviously Wesnoth is increasing in popularity, unless everything else is unpopular, or we've all forgotten wesnoth's URL so we google it every time :lol:

Google trends is fairly mysterious. Its hypnotizing to play with, I've spent hours putting in words and trying to figure out the pattern.
