Writers' Workshop General Chat Thread

I had a lot of fun this year! I managed to miss out on irritating pranks and a Discord server I'm on had a lot of fun with everybody changing their profile pics and nicknames to impersonate either me, @namohysip. Some other fun stuff as well, like people pretending to be their characters.

Sorry to stop by this thread for the first time in ages for something so silly, but something weird is going on with my fic right now and I'm curious to see if I can find some answers here. It's about the view count, specifically. I don't know how reliable said view counts are, but yesterday I had around 380 views (give or take) for my one fic here, Mirror Adventures: A Tragedy of False Smiles. Within 24 hours, however, that number has risen by over 2.5x that amount to just under a thousand. This isn't actually a problem, of course — who doesn't want a higher view count? — but it's just... strange, and I have no idea how this is even possible, really.

Has this kind of thing happened to anyone else here with one of their stories? Is it really possible for that many people to suddenly read one story in a single day, or is it just a glitch or a bot gone haywire or something?
 
I thought view count was just the number of times your thread has been viewed, not how many people viewed it.
 
Google maps has become seriously confused on the waterways of the West Midlands. It seems to think that every waterway between Birmingham and the Worcestershire border is the River Stour, including at least two canal navigations ... another reason to consider the Ordnance Survey superior
