Let's take UN for example: 6 months ago, they had 120 players, according to graalstats, today roughly 50 players. HMM.. But wait, maybe we can go back this exact day last year? It had about 90 players back then, now it have ~50. Where did the 40 players go? Huh Tig? Maybe UMM MORE PEOPLZ GO 2 SCHOOL NOWDAYS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

Let's skip the bull****. :]
You talk like GK never had 100+ players.

There is no iPhone version of Graal yet, but their games like Adrenaline Pool are counted in. The games are actually pretty decent.

No, it is. People are contributing to the conversation because it is relevant, and for those that are regularly on the game it's incredibly apparent even without making any research. If you look at the graph Crono posted however, it is dying because there wasn't even a Summer crowd increase and the players are the people who make this "game" what it is.

Where is the proof that Graal is heading in a positive direction? All I ever see is a lack of interest from both administrators and players. Oh yeah, discussions about flash games

I never said anything about winter.
I said when school's out.
But- It probably will grow when Winter break starts.

I made an ad for us to use, was a bit inspired by an ad on the swedish Greenpeace site.

The point is that Graal will most likely continue to decline unless we have some updates on a regular basis. Even servers are not updating on a regular basis now and things are not going to fix themselves.

Zone is getting lots of updates- and more are planned.
Unholy Nation JUST got a new manager- one who was a part of the GAT and scripting team- so expect lots of updates in the future.
I'm sure that Tigairius has lots planned for GK.
If you look at the "Events News" tab when you're on the serverlist- there's 5 updates within 5 days.

Look at the graph picture I posted, it has nothing to do with school, summer, or work.

Name these "lots" of updates and the more that are planned.

Plans are to be finished.
And when they are finished, they are updates.

Lots of plans= Lots of updates.

Mediocre graphics, and 'complex' scripts that do little more than replace and set ganis

Plans != finished plans. Plans aren't magically finished, so you can't decude that plans = finished = updates.

It's more like...

if (plans == finished) updates;

Well, look at Zone- they just got some new updates, and their playercount has been growing.



Hmmmm.


Those updates were graphics.

This is standard stuff on any server.

Silencer, Red rifle, and Blue Rifle are not new. Removing something and then re-adding it in the future is not really an "update". Silencer has existed for atleast 2 years on Zone Debug, there's more too they just haven't released them yet.

Quote:
-Cakes
From last year.

Quote:

That's nice but this (along with other things you mentioned) aren't the type of updates Crimson2005 is talking about.

Quote:
Unholy Nation:
-New Tileset
-Snow
Standard winter themes.

Quote:
-Streety is the new manager.
This counts as an update nowadays? What?

Thank the Gods, Graal is saved!

Quote:

And when they are finished, they are updates.

Lots of plans= Lots of updates.
Plans are usually NEVER finished. Lots of plans != Lots of updates.

All in all Graal is dying, which is what the original topic was about. The graph I posted proves this, and unless you have troubles reading graphis why are you still trying to argue?

Zone's playercount is a fraction of what it was
