Salutations chums,

This is just a quick note that the YTMND store is back open temporarily so I can get the final stock of YTMND shirts and junk out of my cramped apartment. I've updated all the stock levels and there are very few left (roughly two garbage bags worth). There are, unsurprisingly, an abundance of smalls and mediums, so if you're "heavyset" and want a YTMND shirt, you don't have much time.

It's unlikely I'll ever be convinced to do merchandise again, especially now that I'm packing and shipping everything myself, so for the five of you left visiting YTMND want to support the site and get something in return, now's the time.


Obviously the sponsorship drive didn't do well, but that's okay because the server I bought ended up broken and it's been shipped all over the world in some sort of RMA hell. Once it gets "fixed" the wiki and other sites will be back up. I have nothing else to report at this time.

Also, I checked YTMND's traffic and last month it got 700,000 unique visitors somehow. Who are these people?

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

I think what is going on is that YTMND is very search engine friendly. I have been to at least one search engine and e-business conference.

Off the top of my head

-YTMND has a constantly changing from page. (the changes mostly being text based)
- has a great deal of text on the front page
- has an enormous amount of changing links on the front page
- makes good use of meta tags everywhere

Another possibility is that people are posting YTMND links on other sites like in the old days.

The smallest flat rate box (which feels crammed even with one large shirt in it) is $5.25 and then you have to pay extra for delivery/signature confirmation. Shopify charges $180/month to actually calculate exact postage for each order so I went with flat rate.

It's even more ridiculous that it costs $21 minimum to ship to Canada.

For those that didn't notice, I fixed this by hiding the facebook junk until you open the info bar. I also changed how Flash was hidden due to Chrome introducing a weird bug. Let me know if you see any issues.

He deliberately admitted that he's brony, that he wears diapers and that he eats tacos everyday. Imagine that. As you press the Upload button, your room is filled with the foul smell of taco spice, diaper powder and shit.

No seriously, max. Ban that disgusting faggot.

This site is a great way to kill time. I think the majority of YTMND sites are kinda dumb and way too many of them use the dumb tile feature. But the ones that are good are usually really good. There are two kinds of YTMND sites I really enjoy. (neither of them use the tile feature.)
1 - Sites that are genuinely interesting and/or funny.
2 - The kind that are so stupid and silly that I can't help cracking up.

In any event, this is one of my favorite websites. Keep up the good work. As for merchandising, it would be a real shame for that to stop. The stickers are a must have and I'd really like to get a YTMND hoodie.

Yeesh, I haven't been here for an extended period of time in years.

How long has the wiki been down?

Also, you need larger shirt sizes for fatasses like me.

Finally, I took apart some old CPUs, and before we burned the hard drives I scoured them to see if I had anything worth saving. Mostly old music files, nothing important. I found this one Cher/Stapler YTMND sound file but for the life of me nothing I search for on here can find the one I'm looking for.

Do we have anything for searching by sound files without requiring to make a YTMND? I'd hate to upload something just to have to find the original.

Oh hell yes. Getting YTMND merch before it all vanishes.
I spent years on this site as a teen. Now that I've got money, I can get the merch.

Does anyone think it's possible YTMND will become popular again, or is the only reason it was popular before was because it was a novelty? Now that it's no longer a novelty is it doomed to be something only for a few diehard fans?

Only strategy I can think of to get it popular again is for one of us to become a celebrity and then advertise the website.
