I not even sure you clowns know what "backpedal" means.

You make a statement, find out it's wrong, and run away from it. Pretty sure I've done the exact opposite.

Yeah we call that "digging your heels in". Also a good strat

Did I backpedal or dig my heels in? Can't be both.

Are you going to tell me why new users AREN'T joining Tark? I laid out a theory. You got one?

Already did

But let's not ignore this.

Why are users joining other worlds but not Tark?

It makes sense to me that the 2 a day worlds would have the biggest D1 populations. Obviously it takes less real time to advance in those worlds, so they're just more conducive to players with D1 aspirations.

Yup.

also causes players to more quickly realize they may not like the game and quit.

This?

They AREN'T joining Tark and quitting. They simply aren't joining.

Umm.. they're not?

Okay, let's play Price is Right. Allen's title game is tonight. Let's guess what the population of Allen will be after the renewal period. Currently they have

D2 - 78
D3 - 85

Tark had over 100 users for more 110 straight seasons. It was doing just fine for a long time.

Sure, I'll play. But we'll call it "Name that Tune".

Which world is the first, and only, to have less than 70 in D3 at the start of the season? Go!!!!!

No one gives a **** about dead 2.0. Why do you keep talking about it?

Okay so what's your guess for Allen's population after renewals?

Eleventy billion. I don't know. I don't keep up with world populations. Especially worlds I'm not in.

But you can let me know tomorrow. Or the next day. Or whenever it's time.

Please quote anything I backpedaled on in this thread.

I believe, in an accelerated world, that it's natural to think all events are accelerated. Not one person who didn't reference 2.0 has claimed anything differently. cbriese, FWIW, is who I think claimed to be your daddy. Or maybe it was the other way around. Doesn't really matter but, as best I can recall, that's the only interaction I've had with a "briese" family.

And, finally, if I got "upset", I'd spend a lot less time around here. Lots of stupid and stupid is annoying.

Yes, cbriese / seabreeze is my Dad, but "daddy" is just a bizarre way of phrasing it. I get what you were trying to do (see "argumentative *****" reference in next paragraph), but it just came off kind of gross.

Oh, I completely understand why you would assume that because you've never been in a 2 games/day world, but you based your argument on an incorrect assumption.You then backpedaled and said "maybe you should tell people that" and painted a picture where people aren't joining 2 games/day worlds because they assume it's twice the work, which I've never seen come up in the forums prior to you mentioning it. Ever. Now you're digging your heels in because you're an argumentative ***** who's just looking to argue about things regardless of the topic.

Speaking of organic segues, Benis - does my assumption about HD's lack of promotion make sense? I honestly think that, even with all its flaws, HD could get to a point where each level consistently has 100+ coaches in every world if it were properly promoted. There are most likely more people like us out there that would be willing to stick with it.

You've posted about 50 times in a thread about the population of a world you're not in.

Yeah I think it could. It has before. I do think they need to make more tweaks and improve a few things in order to improve the retention but sure, there are plenty of people who would love this type of game.

Populations from a year ago
It COULD get back to this. But honestly, I don't think WIS cares to do anything or invest resources to do anything at this point.

You're a dumbass. No backpedaling.

And, if you're ashamed of your daddy and find mention of him gross, that's your problem.

BTW, if I'm the argumentative *****, don't you think mentioning me for no apparent reason might just make you an argumentative ***** as well? What did you expect?

As I said, lots of stupid around here. So are so stupid that they don't realize they're starting arguments for no reason. Lot of that around here.

And I've posted 20 times in a thread about a team that's not mine in response to a new user I don't know. Maybe you didn't notice. I post a lot.
