I blame it on Tully. Celest's streets have been littered with trash lately because Tully hasn't been there to sweep.

If Lusternia is dependent on forum traffic rather than player traffic to promote itself, there's a bigger problem than how they rank on TopMuds.


How so?

I actually don't see how player traffic would promote the game in any way what-so-ever. Only people already logged into the game and playing can experience player traffic. It's completely confined.

A similar drop in activity has occurred on the forums, and the cause for that is known. It's not an impossible stretch to connect the two.

Some of the other IREs have dropped their similar fora, right? Have they had similar decreases in forum traffic? Have they have experienced similar falls in the rankings? A lack of correlation wouldn't really disprove your theory, but a correlation would certainly strengthen it.

I have no idea as I don't actually peruse the other forums much. It is very easy to see how the forum traffic here died right after Idiots went away, though. The correlation to rankings is more tenuous, but the first is pretty much fact I think. The second link is more of an observation.

Achaea is hovering in its usual second place, but Imperian and Aetolia are not doing well.

It could be that the smaller games with smaller, more tight knit communities were effected more by the drop in forum activity.

Actually I take that back, even Achaea is doing worse.

I was getting ready to post this, I voted a few seconds ago.

We can take Imperian if we get a good boost...about 30 behind.

I don't know how Imperian is doing that well, actually. It's sort of in bad condition at the moment, it seems like all of the admins there have just quit.

I love them, I've been logging in on my alts over and over again just to see the different ones in colour... the Fain-kitten one's my favourite.

You should do these requests periodically- they're entertaining, and get the playing experience off to a good start.

Two more votes to fifth.

Also, I bugged this a while ago, and it was marked resolved, but either it wasn't fixed, or there were multiple typos because we have this:

: Time to vote! http://www.lusternia.com/vote. Thanks!

The period after vote makes the hyperlink not work. Fix please!
Fania2009-07-12 19:43:44
We will loose 5th place if we don't keep voting! Come on people! 207 'till 4th place!
