Yeah, I remember that being mentioned. I'm rather excited to get the chance to see all that when the game is over, but, but, well, it doesn't help a lot at the moment. (And the next two years will probably be long and interesting, and I wouldn't want to skip them, and you have quite sensible reasons for wanting to keep it under wraps for them, but still)
I kind of wish I had the time to go back over things and create some kind of character/event index. It would probably be really interesting. As it is, I'm mostly only keeping track of the journal-using people and a few that aren't--mostly the people that get referenced frequently--and I feel like I'm missing a lot because of it. Like Sarah Fawcett's family. Though you (not you specifically, but the players in general) were very nice about linking us to that, and more generally pointing us at bits of information like that, and you're doing a good job referencing past events when they're (/before they become) relevant, and all. I just like data. Especially when speculating. (Are we entertaining you? I hope we are. I'm certainly having fun speculating, at least when I'm not being terrified for the characters. --which, admittedly, is a sizable portion of the time recently, but still)
ETA: heh, I write that whole long comment and forget to actually say: thank you for sharing those numbers. And all you players do. --well, no, I can't really thank you for stuff like characters dying, but--I mean--for doing all this work. And marvelous plotting, and fascinating characters, and all. This is an amazing story.
