I'm everywhere!

It had been a hobby of mine to create a user account on every language's Wikipedia (and in a couple of places, I have a single-digit user ID, I think!).

Now, unified login is available to all users (not just administrators), and I just converted my account and unified the other hundred-odd accounts under a single one. So now I don't have to scan the list of Wikipedias or the list of requests for new languages to see new places to register at, nor do I have to update hundreds of accounts when I decide to change email addresses (as I've done at least twice now on Wikipedia).

In other words, someone came along and took all the fun out of your little game!

Oh no - that happened several months ago, when single user login was opened to Sysops! Since then, whenever I've discovered a fresh new Wikipedia, it would already have dozens of users (who would likely never use it, either).

So now I'm just playing their game, too.

Wow. That's a lot of user accounts...I'm impressed.

The complete list (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wikipedias) says 264 now :)

And it would take forever to update them all. (And I'd usually have to restart my browser several times because it would tend to get confused with 60 or whatever tabs open at once, so I could do the next "batch".)
