A lot of new people?

No you're right. More people it seems. I guess we could get some facts to prove it though.

I haven't really noticed any remarkable increase in newly regular posters.

Besides that, you and your crew were new people once, too. Since I joined, and including when I joined, there have always been little waves when a group of people, often previously associated with each other in one way or another, have become regular participants around the same time. Nothing unusual there.

Ya I think its old people new names. I know I made a new account till I magically remembered my old email addy.

That mixed with a lot of old fac...names that I've run into since I started trying to play again.

Hey, That's a good thing! Considering the person I played with the most was you.
You still play from time to time?

Yeah, I had played armagetron for about 1.5-2 years before I joined the forums. I guess your right and others that have played are just making accounts and such later in the tron career, the same as I did. :). ( I don't have a "crew", but i know what you mean :P ) I hope eventually we have a larger number of regular users. Just posting this being hopeful that the new movie could somehow make armagetronad more popular.

Yeah i'd like to see some stats just for the fun of it :D.

edit: Oh, you mean players that just forget their email and stuff too, right?

I'm a new person, and yes, being excited about the new upcoming Tron movie inspired me to have a search around about all things Tron on the net.

I found this game, and love it!

Myself and 3 of the guys at work are totally addicted to it,and I'm sure productivity is suffering!

I wish I'd discovered it years ago!

So a big Hi to all, new & old - see you in the Tavern!

From time to time. Less so lately since the legitimate Shrunkland and my other server, Bebop in Harlem, went down. Dunno if and when they'll return. No other good servers left, so it's a matter of occasionally playing a 'least-worst' for a less than satisfying Arma fix. :/
