Auto-country swap is slowly hurting what is left of the game.

I think someone should post on front page new settings made, as mentioned in another thread. It shows life.

Also, ya can’t sell Pepsi while allowing selling Coke on your front page, better yet anywhere. This was cool when all sims had similar grade graphics, I think it works backwards when you’re the one behind.

But hey. I caught a lot of nonsense implementing common logic. So then there’s that

Summer numbers are always lower than the previous winter, keep that in mind when making those numbers decline claims.

Play the game...

 Common sense Vet style talk, and there aren't many like you around playing the game like we used to. Sad because no newbs are familiar with just what it is like or what the personal "world" at home becomes when you get got into a HOT furball.

I had original thought the unusual low number of players was typical for end of school year but now they are really low even for  this time of year.

Most of us still playing AH are retired so no real change when school is out.

Depends where you live. Weather plays a huge role. If you’re in a sunshine state you don’t notice. But if you live in a state with cold winters, as soon as its warm people want to stay outside. During summer here we won’t run many indoor concerts because its just too hard to drag peeps inside from a bbq and family gatherings. Plus kids out of school parents need to tend to them. I’m not sure teens are our best target audience.

Summer is a good time to build an artillery of promotion material so it can be unleashed late summer for the fall to spring numbers.

I know I talk concerts a lot, but its entertainment that borders the same type of promos. In contracts you must agree to put out no less than 10k in promo 6 mos in advance of show. Same thing, if you want winter numbers start promos mid-late summer, and pile right through to spring.

We don’t have a board for marketing like most companies, we are it. We are tasked with that role, or not.

But they are allowed to be shoved to another sim when they come,… don’t waste your time. Another Skyyr and V and we’re done

Yes but the decline year over year from one season to the next is rapid.

Its actually not rapid.
You lost 20 over YKW, that would make the MA 140 on weekends.
Then you lost a few to sales here. Make that 145-150.

You may have lost 10 to just quitting or death, that puts you at 160.

Players stopped promoting, who knows that may have sustained 200.

If I worked for a company and allowed what us here, I would be fired in 5 min.

So what we lost the kast yr doesn’t seem to be game related.

[Dadtallica]

lol no numbers are pretty clear.

I think FSO’s should be less frequent than in the summer. MA was a ghost town and less were in the FSO

[Shuffler]

To be accurate, he didn't call people like me "friendless losers."  He called us "friendless loosers."  I'm OK with that. Loose is good.  Looser is better.

DOH.... true... lol.

Sorry, but you’re all worried about summer numbers. Considering the garbage crowd chasing stuff that can happen here, down 12-20 is normal.

We got dealt bad cards when we held 200. Some who hang here didn’t like that success, they want to be right about quitting. They told no way we could regain some numbers.Then took advantage on that we did. So, consider where your losses occurred.

When people do what YKW and s few others did to me, no ine in their right mind would WANT to be around that.

The game doesn’t suck. Some people put intensional effort into making it appear to suck.

IMO

Why does everyone always have to explain trends to you?

There will be less people here this summer than there were last summer. There were less people here last summer than there were the summer before it and so on up the line all the au back to the salad days.

[Animl-AW]

As long as certain stuff goes on the trend will continue.

like McDs, throw everything on it, but never change the obvious problem, the meat patty.

Its every single setting, but its never the obvious.

They flubbed the "new" chicken sandwich so hard. They tried to hop on the Popeyes chicken sandwich fad, only to basically make it exactly the same only different, not understanding the key difference is having a real peice of chicken...
