This was our biggest month yet in terms of total visits, and was a dead heat with April's Mavs mania for pageviews. I know that Sam and Hunter were awfully worried about us -- Rest easy, boyos. We seem to be hanging in there:

• 233,114 visits (+16%)
• 1,270,4677 user pageviews (+7%)
• 5.6 PV/visit (-8%)
• 5.5 minutes/visit (-15%)
• 12,839 downloads (+45%)
• 65,636 referrals (+45%)
• 1,207 voluntary registered users (+17%)
• 678 new comments (+26%)

Of particular note this month, the mobile edition really seems to be taking off. Right now it just has the daily best bets and show listings. 4,891 visits (+63%) for 100,002 pageviews (+120%). Will be interesting to see what happens to those numbers when we add drink specials and movie listings.

And the fun stuff:
