Robin quoted 15K in the last TownHall. Philip quoted 17K.
Odd to see marketing more conservative than CEO.. _____________________
Taken from The last paragraph on pg. 16 of Cory Ondrejka's paper "Changing Realities: User Creation, Communication, and Innovation in Digital Worlds :
"User-created content takes the idea of leveraging player opinions a step further by allowing them to effectively prototype new ideas and features. Developers can then measure which new concepts most improve the products and incorporate them into the game in future patches." |

17,000 active user accounts? How is "active" defined? e.g., Logging in once a week?
Also, how many of the active accounts are alts? It seems to me that more and more people are getting alt accounts for various reasons (privacy, focusing on different projects, etc.)..the same way people typically have multiple email accounts or IM screen names. Last question...what's the average number of simultaneous users logged on? |
