What's this about certain Mners being invited to the tenth anniversary party?

Cliquey or what?

How were people chosen? I hope everyone's name was put into a hat and a certain number chosen at random.

I suspect not.

Did you flounce? I must have missed that. Welcome back.

crankytwanky · 14/02/2010 20:38

Oooh that's a point Ponders. I've MNed on at least 6 different computers at work without logging on.

Ponders · 14/02/2010 20:14

If I look at MN on my PC at home, & also on my PC at work, does that make me 2 separate unique visitors?

I bet an awful lot of us do that...

LadyBlaBlah · 14/02/2010 20:14

I don't want to go anyway. Boden?

CiderIUpAndSetIFree · 14/02/2010 20:11

How exactly would you go about organising 'a party' for anyone who had ever posted on Mumsnet ever though? With or without free booze and Boden vouchers?

MerlinsBeard · 14/02/2010 20:04

Pizza Express? really??

NFI · 14/02/2010 19:58

It's the internet, surely we need one of these

Cyb · 14/02/2010 19:50

if we come with one of these how can they keep us out

ForestFire · 14/02/2010 19:41

lol

bibbitybobbityhat · 14/02/2010 19:40

the answer is on the thread

ForestFire · 14/02/2010 19:38

why is the number relevant?

bibbitybobbityhat · 14/02/2010 19:37

Are you not 312,000 Katy? That is confusing, granted.

ToccataAndFudge · 14/02/2010 19:37

ahh well in that case Katy there have been many fewer than 90,000 as I rejoined in August and am 182334

ToccataAndFudge · 14/02/2010 19:35

would be interesting to know current registered members - as if in the middle of December there were 270,000 registered members either we had a LOT of trolls, with multiple accounts or we they were getting 30,000 new members as month (as I am almost 90,000 lower than that numbered and re-reg0stered after a flounce at the end of August)

don't know what a Haiku whatsit is - never heard of one until I joined MN - so don't care LOL

KatyMac · 14/02/2010 19:21

I just rejoined (during this week)and my new registration number is in the 212,000.......so how does that relate to the higher numbers?

MmeLindt · 14/02/2010 19:20

Frankie
GeraldineMN mentioned it on the Haiku thread (posted on this thread too)

EllieMental · 14/02/2010 19:20

dammit, at my last Life Drawing class, my nude looked exactly like a catsbum mouthface....

SoupDragon · 14/02/2010 19:18

Um, EllieMental, that looks like something entirely different to a catsbum face. More like a pair of breasts and some pubic hair...

bibbitybobbityhat · 14/02/2010 19:18

Guttersnipe - ha ha! I've dug around some more and I've found it. Voila:

Jeez Louise - have only just noticed this! You're right about the members thing - that's just an error - it's 850 000 unique visitors a month not registered members - that's around 270k. (Although our unique visitors for Nov were over a million, so that stats out of date anyway.) We'll change that page right away - thanks for the heads up.

FrankieValli · 14/02/2010 19:13

in pizza express?
who said that?

MmeLindt · 14/02/2010 19:12

I did say to MN that I would come over to lend some continental sophistication to the party, even offered to bring Bonsoir. Then they said that it was to be held in Pizza Express.

Mon Dieu!

Anna and I decided that we could not possibly lower ourselves to that level.

Here in Geneva (and Paris) we would expect a Michelin starred venue. At least 2 stars.

So it's going to be the contributor-types - MP, Aitch, who else? Carmenere for the recipes? Boco for the Christmas cards? doesn't someone do a book-club thing?

And then the ten best haiku winners.

Will that be it? It's not going to be a very large party is it. I bet the "popular" MNers will be there too, I'll be interested to hear back from attendees, won't you? :wink:

Not me clearly

muggglewump · 14/02/2010 18:56

Yeah you wish Bibbity.

I present you, Mugggle.

bibbitybobbityhat · 14/02/2010 18:31

I think its best to keep it simple. So the most prettiest.
