I remember Lexitopia having 5k players per game at one point (pre-split) because I once got 25th out of 5k people. This was when it was a lead-in to Six, of course. But I am pretty sure it still had 2k or so people post-split and in its current time slot. Why is it down to barely above 1k these days? Pastimes has the same problem. Does anyone know what is going on? Are they having repeat game issues or something?

Count has remained steady over the last six months.

Numbers always drop off the map after the nightly premium game, that's why the hour long game should always be last of the night's specialty group. Having a game lead in to Six instead of follow it would probably double the numbers.

When was the network reunified again? Do you think when they pushed back its time, that was what did it? I am almost sure it had 2k people during the split and even when it was after Six.

Later lowers the numbers.

I just went back and checked this thread you might find interesting. viewtopic.php?f=43&t=1528

Before the split in 2012 PT had 4k players. Then they split and pushed back PT and the first week it had 2600.

Ideally with a 2 hour block of games you want the 1 hour of specialty games first, then the 1 hour premium game. Then players go home and leave the CD/LS games to the partying drinkers.
