Stats Shocka: LGF Pages vs. DoD

October 31, 2010

A question for our lurkers from LGF: Did you think that access to the LGF Pages was your chance to post your views and break stories on the big stage?  Or, did you think that us lonely stalkers were just obsessed and ranting amongst ourselves?   Yes to both?

Well, consider this 90 day snapshot, copied from our dashboard and LGF.  These are the top 10 for “views”, and on the LGF side feature the best of Charles, Killgore Trout, Ludwig, etc:

Diary of Daedalus   LGF Pages
Rescued from Memory Hole: “Photo of the * 2,114 Paladino’s Porn (NSFW!) 1,931**
 
LGF’s Einstein ‘Splains All 1,407 Glenn Beck’s Insane History of Slavery 1,263

LVQ attacks! 1,281 Immigration Reform Bill to Allow US Citizens to Sponsor Same-Sex Partners 1,049
LGF supports Islamic Imperialism 1,136 Pamela Geller on Fox: Protect our Precious Bodily Fluids Against Muslims and Socialists! 1,021

90 Day Total 11,254  90 Day Total  11,009

*Now referenced on Wikipedia!
** Including “Porn (NSFW)” in a title should disqualify for gaming.

It doesn’t make sense, does it?  I mean, at DoD we are a relatively new, small, one-topic group blog that is linked to only by The Blogmocracy.  And we’re just haters, right? 

Over there, you’ve got thousands of registered members on a famous decade-old blog, bouncing around in sort of an online Neverland Ranch. Their posts are prominently displayed on the main page (right by the annoying ads).  

And we don’t even need to compare the comment totals for those threads. Nothing seems to spark much discussion over in those Pages.

News flash:  This is where the party is, LGFers. Come on over. Use a sock if you want to. Get whatever it is you want to say off you chest! It’s fun! FREEDOM!!!

    Obdicut’s over at Wikipedia cleaning up his master’s entry.

    Now Sundowner and MadKingChucky are going at it, albeit in extreme slow motion.

    I have a feeling Sundowner is Obdicut. Maybe not. Both Wiki IDs are brand new tonight, their only activity – defending CJ’s dubious honor. MadKingChucky, on the other hand, has been active at Wikipedia for 3 whole days.

      Busy on history revision no doubt. Trying to convince Wiki users that he’s still King of the Interwebz no doubt. Isn’t he the one who always said Wiki was not a useful factual resource?

    The wiki article about LGF is very poorly written, almost to the point of incoherence. It’s just a hodgepodge of unrelated factoids and references — much like its namesake blog.

      CJ’s been complaining about the LGF wiki page for years. And I’m sure every time, some sycophant goes in there and “fixes” it. It’s no wonder it looks like a mess.

    “…an online Neverland Ranch.”
    That’s a good one! :lol:

    Can someone throw a bucket down into the tank? *splash*

    Yeah really funny, now tie a rope to the next one. *splash*

    O.K. Loading up the bucket!

    Haul it up…. be careful, it smells really bad.

    Now that is a small sample, but look at what these stinking old threads have in common. I won’t tell you, discovering is the fun part!

    30022 30300 31170 31332 and 31851 there are more but you get the idea. (Hint, holes BAD… holes GOOD!)

        LMAO, Yeah put me down for those threads. :)

    From the Wiki:
    “I don’t think there is an anti-jihadist movement anymore…”
    That is not an off-hand mis-stated comment. That is what Charles Johnson believes.

      He forget to tell that to Pam Geller and Robert Spencer.

    On the new Eerie thread, he’s lambasting the hapless Ojoe for daring to tentatively cheer on Tuesday’s r*volution …

    Chuckles writ:

    I’m amazed and appalled that you seem to think that electing this batch of weirdos, science-deniers, and religious fanatics is a good thing.

    Here, an apparent newbie can’t believe Chuckles ever removed the vowels from miscreants’ posts. Charles does nothing to enlightenment him.

    Stalkers are having a good old time vandalizing the LGF page at Wikipedia.

    I’m on it

    Yeah, they’re having a nice little boasting session about how SpaceJesus has more or less taken over the LGF entry at Wikipedia, turning it into an adjunct of the blog. This might be worth a separate thread.

    “the wikipedia editors were mad at me for taking down the stalker vandalism at first, but now that we’ve talked, they agree it should come down. … the wiki editors don’t want to put up with stalker shenanigans either.”

    http://littlegreenfootballs.com/showc/251/8737355

    A good jest over the obvious shift in LGF’s political orientation, not even trying to spin it anymore:

    “‘Oh, SpaceJesus was hated here for many years. And yet, he persevered…’

    it was pretty hilarious being the only liberal here surrounded by people who had their homepages set to free repubic”

    Heh™, very Heh™. Think about this: what if you added up all the hits the entire LGF diaspora gets, every blog, and compared them to LGF. Think we who got our own blogs would dwarf the abusive “blogfather”? You know it. Success is the best revenge.

      Also consider that we aren’t mentioning main-page DoD views here. On this blog (like most), you can read the entirety of pretty much every post from the main page. So for passers by, there isn’t a need to click on the thread unless you want to dive into the comments, and I’m sure many have read the threads listed above without actually clicking on them.

      The LGF pages, on the other hand, will only show the title of the entry on the main page, requiring you to click on it. So, if they haven’t been clicked, they haven’t been read.

      In other words, if there was a way to quantify the “reads”, our stats would be higher still.

    “thousands of registered members on a famous decade-old blog”

    Yeah but…90% of them are dead IDs.
    There’s about 30 people active including some new Koz Kidz leftists.

    You guys are doing great stuff here. Thanks for all your efforts! Tomorrow and Wednesday will be very interesting – and entertaining!

    I think you guys can now utter the famous phrase “We’re living in his head….rent free!!”
