During this past week I have been playing Adventure Quest. When I log in, it says how many people are online. One day I try to log in and it says there are 17,253 people online. It says there is only a 17,000 person limit. Ok seems fair.

Today I try to log on with 14,698 people online. I think I am going to get on easily . It says there is only a 14,000 person limit.

WHAT?!?!?!

How is that possible? With 17,253 people, it said only 17,000 but later with only with 14,698 people it said  only 14,000 people.

I think I am going crazy.
