Since Utopia is originally a book about a trip to a new land (Utopia) far away in a book from around 1516 i believe, you could call it "The New League" or "Foreginer League" since there's a lot of managers with different nationalities in the league (And not many utopian players there right now although that will probably change a little bit at least soon). But since the book was likely to be a critical book, saying that the perfect community didn't exist and the word Utopia can be translated to "nothing" you could call the league in something in that class, like, "Nothing".

As soon as a business is satisfied and decides not to grow any further it is doomed. 20k users is like a super niche product - every random mobile game has many many more users.

I hope someone actually sees the real drop rate and don't just look at the number 20k.
We have been real stable and only been losing a few managers a week for a real long time.


Yes, the world saw a drop of -0.29% in the user base the past two weeks on average, but over the past 12 weeks, the average percent change has been -0.06%. So, 6 hundredths of a percent decline per week, or 12 users per 20,000 (since that seems to be the number with the most focus of late) per week. This is the slowest decline rate over a 12 week span since I started measuring this in August.

The US has been increasing in users by 0.26% per week over the past 12 weeks. Not sure why, but thought I'd include that data point since I track the World along with the US and Utopia.

The sky is not falling.

We should advertise on the Charazay forums or something, people seem less happy at the start of the current season there than usual. Site is apparently being run by one guy at the moment and it's being buggy too.

Half a year ago I looked for an alternative game. I tried several sites and the first thing I always did was to look into the forum and search for a: Is game X dying? - Thread. If so. I would just quit and continued looking.

just saying..
