[cod] Activision asks for CoD download stats

[admin at codboards.com]

Apparently activision handed out the file to the smallest of the sites the
last time and not one of the biggest community :( so of course this is
gonna happen if the file's given out to small sites, they'd do things to
get attention and this could be one of the things. But they didn't do a
good job as I was not aware of the patch leak until I read this email :) I
hope Activision will be selective on mirrors but will mirror to only the
sites that have proven something already. I hope they choose me, the last
time the patch came out it was downloaded about 3,000 times and the beta
1.3 was downloaded about 1,800 times. It does consume a lot of bandwidth
but it's worthit of the community.
