CC is declining again!

[IcePack]

Facebook losses bouyed by the annual winter return means the peak will probably just be lower than usual, vs actually going down. But maybe I under estimated the % that’s grown / played from FB

Can someone provide an update of the Graph of CC's membership after updating through most or all or most of 2021?

I am wondering about the impacts of COVID since the last graph, sometime in 2020, as I recall.

Well....exactly a year ago it was 6,345 ... so a 1,000 more....I can't quite remember if we ever dipped below 5,000 since then but I know we got mighty close and the Northern hemsphere winter and Omicron has taken us back to that not being an issue until maybe May/June now ?

ps...sorry i can't provide a graph

I might be able to update this weekend at some point. I got Covid so I’m down and out but maybe this weekend I’ll be a little better to chill @ the computer

Thanks, IC. No Hurries. I was curious and was prompting an update by those smarter than me.

CC Member and Game Data

Also working on updating this right now based on CC's data (not forum posts).

[jusplay4fun]

Thanks again, IcePack. I hope that this update did not take up too much of your time.

My conclusion is the spike in membership and interest during the COVID shutdowns of 2020 has been erased and we are back to where we were before the COVID pandemic. Is that your take on this data and graph?

[IcePack]

I’d say we’re slightly higher than where we would have been based on the trend line. Had Covid not existed, we’d be slightly lower. So while most of the benefit is gone, it has helped keep some extras around long term

looks like 4 years of no growth (2018-22) preceded by 4 years of decline (2014-18)

Blame leadership. As long as someone like KA is in charge, this site is destined for death.

Though that probably doesn't help what other game sites do you actually hang out at from over a decade ago. Pogo?

There are plenty of ways to keep this site moving forward. Unfortunately when you've got someone with the intelligence level of a 6 year old and the aptitude of a pebble running the show, there isn't much hope.

[Donelladan]

What do you have against KA ?
I find him a very fair mod in regards to C&A.
I've barely seen him elsewhere on the plateforme except in bugs.

[Swimmerdude99]

Never had issues with KA myself, always thought he does a pretty good job of things. Maybe its mod-drama that we don't get to see

[Nut Shot Scott]

Ever actually had to interact with him? You'll find yourself IQ points lower just for being in his vicinity.

I have much respect for KA and all the years he put into CC, I have interacted with him a lot over the years and never thought anything but how fair he has always been! If ever I had a question or issue and contacted him, He would always get back to me with an answer or help me resolve an issue or request, I am a KA fan!")>

I agree with Magnus on the King Achilles. He gets things done and does so efficiently. I have had no reason to question his intelligence nor his diligence in his tasks here on CC. I have brought several issues over several years to his attention and have found him to be a good Administrator.

I have known for a while that he is in the Philippines. I know and interact with several Filipinos in RL and find them to be intelligent and pleasant people. He strikes me as a Filipino who is similar to those I know. Those in charge are often criticized by those who make requests of the Administrator. One cannot please all the people all the time.
