Say it ain't so!! What can we do to save CC?!!! The black jesus has posed a query...-Jesus noir

22 in 4 days. That is impressive.
Whoever is able to overcome consumer apathy like that is surely going to be head-hunted by the big firms on Madison Avenue...

Personally, I attribute this to grassroots outrage over Freemium being kicked out of tournaments, ....but who really knows?

[Davie.K]

3,789

[Davie.K]

80 in 13 days … don’t worry winters just around the corner ….. oh !

[IcePack]

Summer lull is usually 10%, what was the winter peak? If it was 4K that means ~3600 ish for summer is what I’d guess but at this point we might eclipse the 10% even

[Davie.K]

..and now 3,760 mate … do we have anymore special events eg valentines, st Patrick’s, Easter coming up ?
Those things usually magically create new players.
I find it hard to believe we’re going to not go under 3,600 with it being an Olympic and Euro football championships summer..copa America too.

[Davie.K]

So Michael if I'm reading it correct what you're saying...is that as I write we are on 704 and have exactly 2 weeks to make it above 1,000 ?

That's not quite what I'm saying. I'm saying that, even if we were to make it above 1000 in the coming 2 weeks, there will be a month where we won't make it above 1000 next year, and that it's likely that there will NOT be a month were we will make it above 1000 in 2025.

Think we’re about to have that month .. we may have already had one but I didn’t notice ,this one looks a certainty though.

[MichelSableheart]

I was planning to check tomorrow, but yeah...

[Votanic]

So... the difference between the 3000ish number and the 1000ish number is what?

[2dimes]

It takes longer to fill games especially with more players. Like eight to twelve.

[Davie.K]

So... the difference between the 3000ish number and the 1000ish number is what?

The latter is players who have completed 20 games within the month so are generally seen as the active user base although of course there are many serious players that don’t play that many games in a month.. the former (3,000ish) is the number of players taking at least 1 turn in the last 30 days.

Guys on the monthly 20 games number it just missed by 2 to hit 1,000 … soooo we have the month as was predicted with that abysmal amount.

[2dimes]

OH, my bad. I thought he was asking about the difference between now and a few years ago.

[Davie.K]

I know what you meant

So those are both numbers measuring participation, not premium membership?

[Davie.K]

Correct , spot on mate

[MichelSableheart]

allthough, of course, to be able to complete 20 games in a single month a freemium is difficult.

Another new low: this is the first time that the dutch speaking top 50 ( viewtopic.php?f=173&p=5323108#p5323609 ) has listed a Lieutenant.

[Davie.K]

3,750 ... Yet another new recorded low

[Votanic]

3,759 ..... Yet another new recorded low

You might be amazed at the number of tournaments the site itself has tossed me out of... merely because of my silver cast.
Has the 'ghost in the machine' gone suicidal?

I think facebook would make for excellent advertising. CC has a page there. Make banners every month with a featured map, or tournament. Share, share, share. I'd be willing to do freelance graphic banners, but my skills are not proficient really.
