While your uncultured kind gallyvant in null sec. We High Security Citizens enjoy the finer things in Eve. Such as building and investing. One day your empire will crumble, and you know what will remain. The carebears, you can't stop us.

You might as well submit to our power. For whether you know it or not, you are at our whim.

It's incredible how the all time charts has an incredible similarity with a market chart, with a number of easily identified patterns.
It should not behave like that... it should just be statistics. But apparently the same human reactions and feelings that make markets under and overshoot, seem to be also represented in the EvE subscription graphs.

Well both the sources of data (markets and players) come basically from market or game actors who express their opinion / belief about buying / selling / playing / not playing.

It's expecially intriguing because it's not the first time the concurrent players history has been used to predict the player base for the next months.

In a now long gone yet actual April 2011 thread, famous poster Akita T expressed the collective blame for EvE's dropping quality in hasty, unfinished, brainless development: "Alter bad new company direction, STOP rushing stuff out."

More as a pass time than a serious intention, basing on the concurrent players chart, young me I posted a chart based on QEN's official concurrent players history, correctly predicting the dramatic drop in player base coming in the next months. Notice how I was quite going against the "obvious knowledge" back at the time, since the game was hitting highest and highest peaks with no drop since release.

Then Incarna happened. And we know how it went.

That top record was just before CCP Sreegs started his anti-bot campaign. If we break it, it will be with little "help" for the bots.

Good Job CCP !!!

EvE is back baby !

Not very bright are you? Considering 2 years ago a expansion spiked at 61k, 51k is not impressive. Oops
And while the bounty system and killrights are great features, it's hard to find a suspect or a killright in highsec anymore that isn't a setup or a noob ship.
Please post again in six months, let us know how it's going....lol.

I am not, nor will I ever be...Nicky Yo.... The question you should ask is.....When will they release the NICKY!
