Title: *2W lightbulb appears above head*
Post by: LoGo on July 20, 2002, 12:17:09 PM

HT, how about removing the counter for number of players in the CT, I dare say over half of the people logging in to AH look at the CT and think "no-ones there, MA it is" keeping the CT empty.

so if you wanted to know how many were in the CT you'd have to enter (therefore raising the number of players in it).

this silly idea may just bring life to the CT.... or kill it outright :)

What would be the point of that? You wouldn't know that more people were coming in anyway :p

HT could also enforce radio silence in the CT, so you couldn't know for sure if there was actually anyone in it at all :D

Keep up the brainstorming tho! :)

better yet!!

place a random number generator to display the player numbers in the CT from say 100 and up +)

When a player clicks online the generator picks a number and tada!! 120 players in the CT!! woohoo +)

do what WWII online die put in a slider bar that no-one knows exactly what it means that way your not quite sure how many people are in there.

Does it take 5 people to "fill" the bar 10? 20? maybe 100?

How about changing the name of the CT to MA, and change the MA name to CT?  Yeah, thats the ticket, try and trick them into the CT.  Maybe we can force them into the CT by threatening their families!  Lets not care if players actually want to play in the CT, lets figure out ways to trick/force/require them to play it. :eek:

Seriously, we have been down this road before.
