The owner of covers.com is????

Maybe a Tycoon from New York????
Or Russian Billionaire????
Or Arabian Oil Prince?????
Or Chinese Businessman????


The other thing when was covers.com officially on the internet and how many forum members did you have at the time? 

The only reason i ask is because i sit there refreshing the baseball forum every 10 seconds waiting for bodio or happykane to post and the amount of posters you see....you go wow, thats a lot of people right there.

Dont worry i am not trying to gain info in order to make a bid to own covers.com..this is all just out of curiosity since i dont want to watch the Orioles play the Nats right now.

Only on covers is where you'll find guys from exotic locations throughout the world and NOT their parent's basement.

 " Covers is a horrible sight, the message board is full of posters who bash one another, they have a place called the penalty box which is full posters who hate. Bad place to go if you like sports."

I thought it would be a lot of more from the US

I would have broken it down as : USA 70%,Canada 15% ROW 15%

Here's a look at the various homepages from years gone by with the old banner and logo

I'd love to see some of the old throwback pages from the early years of 2000,2001 when the site was more or less just getting underway

You'd be surprised. Venezuela is second at 10.8% . Hugo Chavez loves covers.

Canada is a surprising fifth, behind "Me-hi-co." WTF eh?

The owner of Covers is Freedom@Stake who founded the site back in 1995 along with another guy

He rarely posts but you can find him a lot these days in the Gaming Industry forum

Again I'd say my estimated %'s apply more so to the forum than the actual site visitor numbers as well.I'd say a lot of those guys from Latin America come here for the free contests and most probably will never post in the forums
