Hey, if enough of them come, Max might be able to afford more or new servers to avoid some of these issues :p

Are they all as big as the YTer who posted the video today?

Drew is around... 500-560K subscribers?

AlexTheRambler = 350K subscribers.
Bokoen1 = 220K subscribers.
SpiffingBrit = 1.28 MILLION.
ISP = 233K.

We are probably fucked.

Not exactly a good representation of the site honestly, given the scope of here that isn't represented (or is over represented).

If Drew's Hearts Of Iron friends see his video on NS, we might see their fanbase coming over and have more generations of NS players.

His fanbase is comprised mostly of pre-teens though, just like most videogame commentary channels.

AlexTheRambler I do not see joining at all, it just does not fit his personality. ISP might I don't know really. SpiffingBrit could go either way. He tends to focus on grand strategy (like all of this group) and I could see him doing some ultra-stereotypical-tea-related-British themed episode, but recently his videos have been about exploiting games and apart from cards and puppets, that's not possible in NS. Bokeon1 and others I haven't heard of so I don't know.
