Well, it's kind of hard to count. There is no centralized way for us to figure out how many of us there are. Maybe we can figure it out someday and really get organized.
One way we can make ourselves known is making sure we spread the signal in letter-writing campaigns and in our purchases.
In the meantime, settle in, post a few, and relax. You're now among family. Welcome to the crew!

Padang shrimp and steamed dumplings. Dig in.

The Old Universal Board had 77477 members on 1/2/2006. I kept a screen shot with the number on it. On the Old Universal Board people wanted to earn points for free Serenity stuff, so it was useful to have keep one id and earn points.
The replacement www.serenitymovie.org has 5,070 members as of 2/19/2006

Late to the thread but we can try estimating from the other end and see what we get. Serenity made about $40 million in theaters worldwide. I saw the movie 5 times in the theater (paying full price thrice) so I account for 40 of those dollars. So assuming that is typical of all people who saw serenity in the theater there are aproximately 1,000,000 browncoats worldwide. Possibly many more.

yup, many of us lurk here before posting anything, and many of browncoats don't even know this site exists or they read forums/post elsewhere... Also, some may even hate to read forums and post, like some folks i know :P
Anyways, good to have you around, drop by anytime you like and have a good time

Yeah pretty much as many as there are dvds out there...lol.. it seems EVERY time someone watches, they become a browncoat of varying intensity... when the show returns to TV there will be a LOT more ppl watching it, cus they have all seent the BDM or the BDS.. so... thousands and thousands is my guess...

A noble challenge, but keep in mind that in addition to the 'officialness' and free stuff available at the UB, you had to register in order to even read the forums. Here, most lurkers don't but rattle the floor.
