Anyone know where the surge came from ?

There might have been some kind of big drop?
Or a glitch in the software?

There you are DEV, I PM you earlier.. let me know if you are still in the bidding or not..thanks..

Yeah, you know I just looked at the stats yesterday..and for the life of me I can recall what the numbers where...whther they really are 5,000 more regs or not..could just be a glitch also.. odd it affected just those 2 though..

Maybe someone can definitively ?

The reason all of these regs are being made is that the .us registry has been striking deals with registrars giving them cheaper pricing. I know of two registrars that are only paying $4/reg for .us names.
