Default Increased pokerstars traffic

is it me or has the number of people on POKERSTARS increased significantly from a month or so ago with peaks of cash game players of over 15-16K during optimal times as opposed to just 10K people on just over a month ago.... anyone know of any reasons for this?? just seems odd that people have woken up and seen that internet poker is not going away in the US......

Maybe partly due to the end of summer in the US and Europe. People play more online when the weather is colder/not as nice.

The weather has been pretty gorgeous for much of the country for much longer than it's normally supposed to be.
Some rain in different areas I guess but overall I don't think bad weather is much of a factor here.

Maybe we should get together and think about suggesting that Pokerstars give a special "thank you" bonus to 2+2 members with more than 100 posts?

That was just a joke, but seriously, there are over 106,000 players currently - that as high as I've ever seen it.
