1000 Member Celebration, Contest Q2

Tonight’s prize is a 6-Quart Hand Crank Popcorn Popper. We used one of these our first season and they’re fun for family use.
This is pretty much a guessing game. You can’t really know this answer without access to the stats (or possibly a friend on one of those CSI shows who has instant magical access to a database for everything in the entire world). So really, you’ll just have to guess. But to make it more fun, please only guess one time on this question. Whoever posts the correct answer first in this thread will be the winner!
Background:
In my email to members (and forum post), on March 14th announcing our 1000 registered member milestone, I mentioned that we have welcomed visitors from 171 countries/territories in the past 30 days. But we actually reached 1000 members on March 13.
Question:
On March 13, and only March 13th, how many countries/territories visited BackyardTheater.com?
The first correct answer posted below wins! Good luck!
Randy

I"ll take a shot and say...
33
OK, so were saying how many countries visited the site the day before you emailed out the mass letter eh?
I'll change my guess and say 19.
And I'll hit myself if it really was 33. heh heh.

OK, this is terribly embarrassing...
In my original post, I was a day off in my dates. I have corrected the post above. Just in case Backyard Paradise, kelemvor, or Dano used some sort of math voodoo, I feel I must restart this one and allow them to change their guess or let it ride -- without saying whether they are correct or not. So it's up to you guys.
Sorry for the confusion.
Randy
PS: The lesson here, as applied to Backyard Theater, is try to have your stuff together before you actually start the movie. Do a soundcheck, find your focus, get yourself dialed-in as best you can. Because making corrections after you actually
start
the movie is distracting.

Ultimately the pessimist may be proven right, but the optimist has a better time on the trip!
