Ah, if only we could get to the old phorum! I first posted about LGs stats when she went from 12,000 to 16,000 in 4 days.

Channels were only created June 2 -- after the Lonelygirl project was conceived.

Here's a story from July 27 saying the most subscribed channel at the time was MSIVideo with 3420 subscribers. But can this possibly be correct? Surely the number was already higher, right?
