The grid's almost back to the number of regions it had before the openspace pricing announcement...

There are almost 30k regions on the grid now. It was around 31k or 32k, IIRC, when LL decided things were not stable enough last year.

M. is in denial.

Or a liar.


Worse, he's a marketing drone. A CEO-level marketing drone, but still a marketing drone nonetheless.

I wonder if the same thing will happen to xstreet. They may know that they're shooting a good chunk of it now but expecting that new businesses will bring it back.

That's not necessarily a good thing, considering the real people online population hasn't risen to match it. I still see a lot of yellow mainland on the map......

Oh, I totally agree..

I still think M has switched them to planning for what they'll need/want when SL has 10x the numbers it has now. Sadly, I also think he doesn't really care who he has to rolll over to get there.
