Sardines doesn't really interest me much personally... perhaps it has something to do with people being unwilling to play sardines and not necessarily that they don't want to get involved with URU?

Perhaps it's time to find new entertainment activities?

Yes, kalise, I remember seeing you and lun(anne) playing tag in Ae'gura.

But again, you were too early. If you'd stayed for just another hour you would have seen the City fill up. And I'm not just saying this. I've always called that time The D'ni Rush Hour, when Ae'gura fills up to maybe 20 people - curiously, mostly newbies.

A few hours after Luna and kaelis were in the city, I offered some limited entertainment in The Fun House... I think only about 10 people showed up before I tired and whisked everyone away to K'veer.

PS: It's nice to see that censorship is alive and well.

Well that's pretty definitive proof.

I guess I'm just missing it by an hour or two.

...not busted at all. 20 people in a very specific time... is *not* a living, breathing cavern.

Would you like me to screenshot a player count from another Free-to-Play MMO?

To make it fair, I won't even take a screenshot of the main area, I'll take it of the pure, non-combat, roleplay area. (As in, the most equivalent to our IC-gameplay, and our general gameplay (and some people do play in this way exclusively))

There are more than 20 people in my Physics Lab, sheesh. I'm not impressed.

Well, I take it that these people are paid for being there...

Trying to compare Myst with any ordinary free2play MMO? I don't see the point in that.

Anyway, considering the fact that in most countries summer holidays are at present I'm not really surprised about those numbers. Taking also into account that new shards keep popping up I think it's only natural that the logins in MOULa are fewer. One just can't be physical in two places at the same time.
As for dropping login counts: I'm getting the impression that MOULa runs far more stable on my rig than it did month ago. That means I don't have to relog as often as I used to. Others might experience the same thing, Might be an explanation for decrease of that score, too.

That's an unfair equivalent. I could easily go some where in the game where no one is; kinda like Ahnonay Cathedral.

Plus you guys have got to remember, people don't always stay in D'ni. There's always someone online somewhere, even if it's OHBot.

Ok. I'll make it fair by your definition, and go to the most populated area in the game, and compare with our most populated area - The City.

I felt it would be more fair to go to their more equivalent area, and show that their numbers were higher.

But... if you want me to compare with main areas, although gameplay is different...
Can do. =)

Ok.. screenshots taken. "Main" areas of the two games, we've seen Uru's peak... 22 users. Here's two Off-peak shots of Champions Online. (note, this is so you can see the list of players in each instance... not including the one I was in, or any full ones)

Ever the pessimist... some things never change.

Yeah, I don't see the point in this "living" or "dead" debate. You doomsayers are such a drag. those of us who are still enjoying ourselves will continue to bring the life you so sorely miss into URU.
