Hours played in January

[Persus]

The monthly was a terrible month for time played. The top 100 managed just 10803 minutes or 180.05 hours of game play this month, That's about half our monthly average. I blame Christmas and a raft of shine new games that it brought and possibly BLC beta. Down on last month by 185 hours or close enough. That's not counting all those who never made the top 100 or stopped short of 30 minutes. Such a huge drop is staggering.

We currently have 3660 members, that's up 168 bot/members since last month at this time. How they find us is still a mystery to me but keep em coming.

This only takes into account games between January 1st and 31th up until 16.50pm. Anything after that isn't counted.

As usual Pimp has been running a server almost 24/7 for All of this month so thanks to him. We still need old and new players to return so pass on the word.


Ok I looked back and I started doing these in June. Unfortunatley I only started doing members in october. but below is the fluctuating chart.

December                      21455                          357.65                          3492 (+88)
January                         10803                          180.05                          3660 (+168)

Make of this what you will. From the month of June to January we average 22899.25 minutes/381.65 hours of play a month. We also get an average of roughly 120 members a month.

Most of these members don't seem to play for long or at all, we really need to try and fill the server at peak times between 17.00 and 20.00 hours mid week.

Thanks Persus - alway interesting with this statistics. But this time it is sad indeed. I am not giving up hope though, I'll keep the server up for those who want to play. Start two new guilds, perhaps, and have a GvG once a week? Can we get 10-16 active players for this? I sure am in. If you think this is a good idea, we can always make a signup thread. I doubt that there are enough of us, or... /Pimp

The community versus community events worked ok when we ran them. We could try a few more of those either at the end of every month or every second Sunday? What do the rest of you think? Would you be up for it?

Sure, if I just could find the time.

Too much time? Why not give it to Rev?
