Expansion Nov '15 to May '16

Once again, you know it's time for data collection. As always, I only count stories that were first submitted in that month, and ones in storage do not count. 

WG = Weight Gain
BE= Breast Expansion
GTS = Giantess
HE = Hourglass Expansion
IN = Inflation
MG = Muscle Growth
PREG = Pregnancy
:bulletblue": RE = Rear Inflation

As of June 22, 2016:
Pageviews = 599,463 ( +106,800)
Members = 129 ( +16)
Watchers = 1,853 ( +149)

====================================================================

Conclusions:

We almost hit 600k. I remember when this group struggled just to get 100k... I'm tearing up right now ; (

The diversity of the stories has shrunken since last time, with BE, GTS and WG making up 70% of all stories submitted in these 7 months. The other six categories are appear not to be doing too well. The loser is obviously Shrinkage, which has not had any stories at all, followed closely by Rear Expansion. 

Ironically, we appear to be exactly on track towards matching the number of stories submitted from the last graph, as 1/ (7/10) * 276 = 394, one away from the exact number from 10 months last round. We'll see if the prediction holds true. 

WG is actually down, which is a good thing. The moderators and I have more or less drawn an arbitrary line, that if one expansion is double or more the second highest expansion in terms of percent stories submitted, then we have a problem. For now WG is at 1.79x the next highest expansion. 

... actually that's still pretty high now that I think about it... 

Now, I don't know if this is true, but I have been hearing people complaining about the number of WG stories submitted to the group. Perhaps this is unfounded, perhaps not. So if you have any comments about it, do not hesitate to comment below and we will think of something. And if you have any other concerns, again, comment below and voice them.
