Number of replies discrepancy

I've noticed from time to time that there are discrepancies between the number of replies reported for a root node, depending on whether im looking at the 'seekers of perl wisdom' section, or the monastery gates.

Anyone else ever notice this?

As i write this, the node strict or not strict? reports 20 replies at the monastery gates, but only 14 from seekers of perl wisdom.

I use the most powerful debugger available: print!

Wrong number of replies on Monastery Gates (by yours truly) and Discrepancies in the number of replies both made the same observation. Somewhere, the Monestary Gates overcounts total replies (SOPW gets it right) when you have "Show count of all replies" set in user settings.	[reply]

Yes, I've noticed. I always figured it had something to do with the time the pages (or the info) was updated... some pages might not get updated as often, or they get updated much later than others. No idea if that's what's really going on, but it sounds good enough to quell my curiosity...	[reply]
