Here we are, December, nearly the end of 2006. I can’t say that I’ve been too happy with our progress in 2006, but on the other hand it could have been much worse. Well, 2007 WILL be a better year. We’ve had a wee sit-down and wrote out our projects for 2007. This time we made the rule that everything had to fit on one side of a 3×5 card – that way I couldn’t get too carried away! This doesn’t mean that we won’t add projects as the year progresses, just that we won’t overload ourselves up front. We will be sharing more on the 2007 projects in January.

To close out 2006 I thought it might be interesting to see which parts of our website(s) have been most popular during the year. The data gather may not have taken the most scientific approach, but the results are representative of what folks have been viewing…

In rough order of number of hits we have as the most popular pages on HistoriFigs.com and TableTopTalk.com:

TTT
The popular section is: “The Morschauser Files”

News

Wargamer’s Corner
Jack Scruby’s Basic War Game Rules (N-gauge)
Scruby’s Rules for a 30 Years War Game
Jack Scruby’s Rules African Colonial War Game Rules (N-gauge)

This closely follows the patterns observed in previous years. Previously TTT didn’t have a “most popular” section, but was still a high traffic site. News and TTT are always battling it out for the number 1 spot. For product listings, we typically see the Napoleonic listings in he top three, but this year they have been replaced by the Ghastly page (now if you all would just buy more Ghastly products to justify the higher number of hits on the page). When it comes to the Wargamer’s Corner, in previous years the articles on painting N-Gauge figures and ACW painting guides were tops. The posting of the Scruby rules sets have pushed these out of the top 5

Well, that about wraps up the review of our most popular web pages.

Tomorrow, I’ll be posting the monthly winners of the Mike’s Grab Bag contest. That’s right. For November we will have multiple winners. I didn’t get much done this month, so there is a lot on my desk and I need a clean desk for December.

The N-Gauge 30YW figure special will run through December, so be sure to join the crowd of folks picking up these nifty little figures!

If all goes well the first bits of equipment will be moved into the new workshop this weekend – still not quite done yet, but getting really close (we had hoped to move in last weekend, but things were not quite ready) – I really want to be done by next weekend, so we can keep production flowing.

That’s about it for today – check back on the weekend for more specials and contest winners.
