2012-01-03 13:40:04+0000 <antoviaque> I was thinking of trying to target the main issue pointed by the players, ie "Not enough players to play with" 2012-01-03 13:40:19+0000 <antoviaque> what do you think? other priorities that seem more important? 2012-01-03 13:40:38+0000 <arbrandes> i did skim the results - it all sounds perfect to me 2012-01-03 13:40:44+0000 <tartarugafeliz> I think this one is the main one 2012-01-03 13:41:04+0000 <antoviaque> For having players to play with, there are a number of things we can try imho - bots, retention (leveling), preference for P2P over bots (tables) 2012-01-03 13:41:07+0000 <mtyaka> i agree... 2012-01-03 13:41:26+0000 <antoviaque> along with some measure of our progress (stats) - right now we're a bit in the dark imho 2012-01-03 13:42:30+0000 <antoviaque> ok - cool.
