2 - 3 - 100,000

The 2010 Winter Olympics have started, and we've got Olympic fever. The Olympics are all about rankings and numbers, so in that spirit, here are a few recent exciting ones from PerBlue:

The results of the Best App Ever awards are in. Parallel Kingdom was nominated in 4 categories. We were close, but we didn't take any firsts. Though much like the US's Ohno and Celski at the Men's 1500m Speedskating event, we took an exciting 2nd and 3rd. The results:

• 2nd for Best Augmented Reality App
  
• 3rd for Best MMO Game
  
• Honorable Mention for Best Use of Location Services and Most Creative Use of iPhone Hardware
  

Thank you to everyone who voted for PK, we appreciate your support!

In other news, Parallel Kingdom recently achieved a long time milestone. We now have over 100,000 PK user accounts. That's a lot of PK'ers from all around the world.

Some other fun numbers:
1015 Cities have been founded in PK. There are 1,240,861 Flags, which represent about 425,000 km² of claimed territory across the world. That may sound like a lot, but it's less than 1% of the Earth's surface. That leaves 509,647,000 km² of spacious unclaimed territory - go claim some!
