Interesting.

Maybe the candid post by Gorboth made people appreciate what they have, while it's still there :)

Anyways, you should elaborate a bit more on what happened, for the ones that wasn't there.
Hearing of great deeds and cool things going on in-game always spur people to also log in themselves to join the fray - Remember the AA re-opening. :)

Hmm

So, you want more players, fights and p-kills. But you don't want to give any new players a chance... Or is it that you just want small players you can kill in seconds that can't really threaten you?

Good luck with that.

Are those questions to me? I didn't participate in a pfight for ... I think it's years now. How do I not want new players?

Huh? Who said something about that? Laurel noticed more players in the game and even pfighting going on. I though it was cool with more players and something happening. Nobody has said anything else...

You said you wanted more of this, I agree. But in another thread you argue for the difference in stats between current players and new players should stay, and you use your experience as a young squire with Monika as a enemy as an example. You said you died in seconds. And I can only assume that you think that it was how it is supposed to be. Since you are now among the big players I just assumed the rest.

Sorry if I some how misunderstood you.

Yes, yesterday was very nice to see. To contrast, here's a fairly average day for this Summer, which happened on August 1st:

During peak hours, we grew by 10 players, which definitely helps the game feel alive. Lets keep it going! :-)

And it looks like we kept it going. Here's the next day compared to the day before. Both have the same APH but different distributions. Great stuff!

Behold! Yesterday was the best day Genesis has seen in terms of playerbase numbers in well over a year. The entire week since the Turkey event began has been much better than normal for 2012, but this was better by leaps and bounds! The above chart shows the difference between the same two dates last year, and then this year (yesterday.)

Onwards!
