SInce March there’s been no apparent movement in the top ten.

However, the triple challengers of the super secret hit list, Through the Years: Long Correspondence, and YKYAAGAW have been creeping up through the top twenty, which is currently rounded off by Online Go App for Android and the Music sharing thread.

QTDDTOT and The Dining Hall have been seeing steady progress – they’ve gained about a hundred posts each.

A tsumego a day has been catching up to them on swift pace and is now barely behind.

A few new names have emerged above the 200 post mark, but it seems more difficult for them to pass 300, the region beyond still dominated by the old guard. I wouldn’t be surprised if the non-Go book thread reached that line by the time we next check in. Features everyone secretly wants is growing fast and will probably also make it there.

The threads made in 2021 are mainly just breaking through from the 100s to 200s, with examples like Controversial Go opinions and the Thue–Morse thread.

Currently, the main traffic seems to be to threads that are either established (1+ year old) or notably new, which creates an interesting dichotomy.
