From TJ, in a thread:

"For the record, I fixed the counters shortly after the release started, so they'll be much higher than you're used to.

Previously, they didn't count people "in the process of" getting an egg (AKA on one of the /get/ pages) as being in a biome, so for the past X years the numbers have been lower than the actual number of people hunting."

So while it IS crazy in there the higher numbers aren't actually reflecting a huge upswing in people hunting new eggs.

I don't know. Maybe if you asked TJ might answer. I'm curious too.

Looks like they will be super common though. People are catching them really easily now, and they are reporting even the non-hourly drops are going on longer then usual. I saw the S2 hatchies on TJs post and I'm thinking I'm good with just 2 of these. The male looks like it has socks on and the female doesn't have much going on, detail wise. Or else my monitor is being odd again. :P

I should have asked last night, when I first saw his comment posted. Now, it's likely to just get lost in the shuffle.

I suspected they'd be pretty common when the initial drop went on for so long. I remember the Blusangs only dropped for about a minute on their first drop -- a sure sign they were destined to be rare-ish. Most average breeds drop for 4 - 5 minutes. These dropped for close to ten minutes. Another super-common to clog up the Coast! Heh. At least it should be easy to go back and get my second CB pair later.
