Probably so. There is exactly 0 chance of contracting coronavirus in the CC community.

i can see the point and i wouldn’t be against adding a speed game or two to new player, however and this exemple may not be the best but at least will demonstrate the thought behind the fact adding speed game to newbie may not bring anything more such as additional premium member.

I use to play Guide game (stopped few weeks ago), which are game a new member select when he first login, those game are casual 24hrs but, we Guide Member, tried to play right away when we got the auto-invitation, i can say 1 out of 10 new player play the whole game and with me playing my turn right after him, those casual game last less than a day sometime, most of the new member start turn, drop, play and exhaust all troops and you saw the log they ran out of time, never come back the next day, never login again.

So with this exemple it show no matter the game type, most of the member create their account, get first guide game start and logout. Adding the speed game to them wouldn’t do anything unless CC creates an “introduction” login, where it explain what the site is all about and direct them to the rules of how to play, with a tutorial bot game to show them the basic function.
Adding free speed would only benefit the current long timer Freemium who don’t want to spend money for a Premium to gain access to this game type.

NR's have credits in their account to purchase a speed packet.
I just don't think they know.
In GG's I tell the NR's 4 or 5 hints for the game, including turning panel interface off(It is hard enough for them as a NR, without seeing the map, log, game chat and everything else and to make a turn)
I also mail most.
If they don't get in in the first 40 seconds they either drop off or don't understand and give up.
A tutorial page would help but it is a long shot.
Fix the interface.

NR’scant turn off the new interface

This seems to be the purpose of Guide Games and that program.

Speaking of Guide Games, we need more regulars playing some of the Guide Games. There are many requests and few players that are not NR, at least not many that I see. Most are played by about 5 of us, and maybe a handful more play a few games.

We ( old CC players ) should try to join games with those NR to have their games started asap.
Speeding things up for the NR may help to make them stay, and we can give advice as well at the same time.
Let's go welcome the thousands new players

Well, I'm a "NR" I believe, hopefully in for the long haul. Love playing risk, but not been able to (for some years as not many share the passion), the whole covid thing pushed me to find some online version where I'm not just playing against a computer.

Looks like the good oledays are coming back. I hope the returning veterans regain their passion and the newcomers remain for good.

This is quite the influx of newbies. I hope someone is keeping a close eye on riskllama throughout this unprecedented period.

Mid February was 5,300 +/-, it'll be interesting to see how much the influx sticks around / gets retained over time. every 30 days if it keeps up or drops some of the past ones

You will know it’s for real when we get a thread complaining about noob farming.
