I have reason to believe we could double that number easily. I was correct about the bots creating some interest in this server. Although I would rather play with real people instead of bots, it is better to have activity and bot with the players that show up to play.
I spend time every night on the ET game on BBA. Not as much as before but still drop in every night to play a round or two. The biggest question I get asked is: " are there going to be new maps soon?" I always say that I am sure that new ones will be added but I can't say when exactly because there was some discussion of doing exactly that.
If anyone that has the power to do so would consider doing a little experiment I can suggest a real boost to the interest in this clan/server. I also spend time looking in on other servers to see what people are doing. I look in particular at the servers that have the greatest population and try to see what they find more interesting there then here.
The really chaotic action on these populated servers attracts the most attention. In other words, lots of weapons, lots of anti gravity, lots of ammo, but damage turned down. This makes for the most popular gameplay on all of the servers I have visited. Yes these servers can still pack a full house with all slots filled.
I can show examples if anyone cares to see. I wish we could try these settings for an experiment. Thanks for trying the bots that I had suggested as I think it is obvious that it helped to spark some new interest. Now PLEASE take it to the next step and try the rest of my suggestions. What can it hurt? Let me know if this is a remote possibility so I can be one of the players that spends time with my own clan instead of looking at and playing elsewhere for the fun of playing.
