THOUSANDS vs HUNDREDS

The other day I was pleased to find thousands of links available on the main link exchange. Well, actually I had mixed feelings but 3 and 1/2 hours later, when I had exhausted every single link and had gained something like 2,600+ clicks in a single day - well, yes I was pleased.

I was also curious. So, when I looked at the profiles of about a 1/2 dozen others I noticed that
    1> I wasn't the only one who experienced such a "windfall" of links
    2> also that some people had only clicked a couple hundred (versus my thousands) that day.

That was last week (maybe 3 days ago?) -- hehehe, it was last year in a manner of thinking - good ol' 2008. But my question comes - because the links are back to "normal" behavior now. I'm clicking as many as possible with the exact same timeframe but have yet to see the volume of links on the Main Exchange.

Can anyone explain why the number of available links on the Main Exchange would change so dramatically?

Cordially,
~Grandpa

From time to time lotto pays out to all members with negative credits (happens approximately once every 2 months, if I am not mistaken) which explains why you could click 2000+ links. (These days are also called crazy clicking days and you never know for sure when the next one will be :razz: )
Now these members are of course negative again, so you have your normal amount of links to click again.
Hope this answers your question...

Thanks Tsai, curiously yours was one of the Profiles I checked to see if it was just me or what (and you were the only one I saw that out-clicked me that day).

Very much appreciate your answer, thx again!

Think that was the 2nd time I've seen it happen since being here, but took a few mins to realize it was happening again. Glad I was on right at the time it started and for the whole time it was happening. Nice way to pick up an extra 2,500 clicks (credits) once in a while. :)
