CC is declining again!

October passes with 891 !!

November passes with 892 !! Mid November looked like we were going to smash back through the 1,000 mark but that stalled dramatically after the changes/update/facelift..with a combination of people getting used to it and winter northern hemisphere plus holidays I’d be very surprised not to see us smash through 1,000 barrier for December.

I am very surprised …. 872

It’s getting worse…January … 857 …. I think it’s over guys

886 .. February being a short month and all kinds of distractions from valentines to Super Bowls to world war 3 .. i think we can safely count this as a rare win.

912 for March … a good but expected number maybe..I’ll be quite.. no,very surprised if April tops it as we head into the northern hemisphere spring…. On a personal level I now believe this is a better measure of things than the lowest recorded totals I’ve done in the past.it nullifies the odd spikes with Multis and groups of friends who come for a short visit.

Oh I forgot about Easter.. that’ll boost the numbers.. but again more in the old way of recording than the 20 games completed way, which as I say is a more active thermometer.

April = 866 .. and that’s with an Easter thrown in..I can’t see us now getting a chance to go back over 1,000 again until November if I’m honest.. the really worrying thought is how low could the numbers go over the northern hemisphere summer with a World Cup too in the mix.

I know I keep beating a dead horse but this is a volunteer/community driven site. We can count ups and downs month to month of lapsed users from yester year but ultimately you are on borrowed time unless you get new blood in. CC would need a product manager focused on ease of use/new user funnel, an SEO lead, paid acquisition manager (google ads, facebook ads, etc.), and other roles (not sure how much of this exists as of today) to continue to live on. These are not small investments but I suggest everyone just enjoy the remaining time left that we have.

PS join my games pls - they are sitting much longer than average lol

I Think a lot of it is the generational differences.

we probably grew up playing candy land, life, and battleship and eventually more thought-needed games like chess and risk and setback with our parents as kids.

Today's kids play minecraft, roblox, and text each other.

There isn't much of a population for new influx at this point. All board games except games that are 1000s of years old are at risk

[Swimmerdude99]

I disagree - there is a huge board game community - you just have to appeal to them still with a classic like this. Plenty of people are playing boardgames on emulators on steam etc. But the browserbased gaming is mostly dead. If CC were to build an interface for speed games within steam it actually might take off. But you'd have to switch the payment model most likely to be appealing, or update user interface.

I think it has mostly to do with:
- Marketing
- Usage/platform
- UI (to go along with being put into an actual game/application on steam)

May = 871 .. surprisingly passing the April total truly is once in a blue moon … if we get past 850 for June though I’ll eat my own cock.

“ On a personal level I now believe this is a better measure of things than the lowest recorded totals I’ve done in the past.it nullifies the odd spikes with Multis and groups of friends who come for a short visit.”

Having gone down the path of the much more accurate stats of the monthly numbers as a snapshot of where we are.. I will briefly mention a new recorded low of 3,072 as an extra bit of evidence if needed that things are shite.

Interestingly after a steady drip drip drip over the last weeks to an all time low of 3,072…overnight and the following day the number has jumped up by over 60 …..

A whole bored school class or f*ck load of multis ?

My cock is safe,,, I was getting the condiments ready and unzipping but I wiped the sweat from my brow and piss from my flaccid 2 inch stump as June ended and gave us the abysmal figure of 821… will I risk my manhood once more ? ..no ! but I can’t see anything over 830 for July .. with the heat of that northen hemisphere summer and World Cup.

813 … damn I’m a good predictor just wish I had the same success in every other aspect of my sad little existence….time for a wank…. Oh before that !!.. really only the last week shot those numbers up we were wallowing in the 600’s with less than a week ago … August traditionally like September is a tricky one to predict… I’ll nail my penis to the mast and say 815-820 for august… which is an improvement… a very very rare one.

Ironically, I typed in Risk online into the google search, CC doesn't pop on the first page, (fucking Reddit), but it is on the second page. Looks like most of the apps being sold is either through Steam or Google Play.

Well,well,well 850… August continues to confound all in making any kind of sense.
A monthly “improvement “ as we hit our lowest ever recorded number 3,034…. September will be hard to predict for a variety of reasons, so I won’t but it’s becoming clearer month by month that we have a pretty stable group of just over a 1,500 pretty active regulars…. and that’s it.. the rest are transients… is this enough.. for now.. just.. but any more “regulars” leaving and the site will be extremely niche and in its death throes….if it actually dies is another question but as sustainable and active entertainment other than for a few VERY few people… personally I’d give it a year before it becomes a closed shop and cannibalism and incest reign supreme.

STOP PRESS : I’ve just seen the news regarding the increase in price for membership
.. reading the room is not the strongest attribute here,that could well be the final nail in the coffin … I’m not sure how many dormant membership’s are still paying out from long dead players.

Thanks, Son!c...!!

It's alot. I do searches everytime this question presents itself and i find a couple on my first 2 minutes without much trouble....

Im sure its more than management feels comfortable to admit. But their reasoning would be something like "they agreed to the terms" which to me translates to "the law allows me to steal from people"

Anyway. Heres a few i found on my first search;
