Why didn't anybody tell me...

...that clicking "update now" on my statistics page next to where it said "never updated" would in fact erase all data gathered before today?

Counter-intuitive bastards.

At least now I know that someone came to my page today by doing a web search for the word "buildy". I just don't know that it was totally worth it, though.

you can go back to previous months and look at them too. don't despair!

oh wait...unless you can't because it's a new year? don't take anything i say as truth because currently i have no idea what i am talking about.

I could, before I went and clicked that damn button. Now I can't and I'm sad. Boo.

I think it's just a temporary quirk - you can't see anyone's stats for 2003, even without button-pushing and updating. Since you also can see 2002 stats, if one's blog existed then, I am fairly sure it has to do with the New Year, and not no damn button.

Really? As of the last time I looked, which I think was Saturday, I could see all my stats including last year. It's the 5-days-delayed Y2K-04 bug!

Regardless, I am reassured. Thank you.

Shit I'm sorry folks, I've been working on the stats for the last 3 days and just hoping nobody was noticing. I've taken the data down cause I'm reformulating it. I'll be done in a day. Sorry. I'll send out an email to everyone next time, warning.
You didn't do anything wrong Dianna. Nothing.
