Well, I don't think it's time to do so yet. Earlier there were some 1960 accounts, and that number is still decreasing. Some were cheating accounts, some were accounts that only had red ink.

Two weeks ago there were over 2,000. Looking into the rankings there are still people that seem to give up as there LF is dropping everyday a few points. I dont think that someone with a LF of 40% is still playing the game...

I think we can manage for now. Multiworlds will change things around. The game has gotten saturated so thats when demand drops off.

I agree, the game will reach it´s peak, players will get bored, it will decrease, then reach a peak again

Mine had dropped into the 40's due to one REALLY overpopulated hub, that and real life came calling.......

If players are bored they could always restart their airline in a really difficult environment- just like I did

(But don't come to Australia- we've got too many airlines here already

)

ok, (resets and starts in Australia)

*starts hurling rocks & spare parts at DarthRobby's new passengers*

No seriously, I make less money here with 4 planes then I made in Europe with one plane (of similar size)

DarthRobby · **Reply #12 on:** November 23, 2007, 02:24:07 pm

ya, and that is probably why, passengers don't like rocks and spare parts, maybe if you got some way to defend them, you will make a ton of money!

Blue Sky Mine · **Reply #13 on:** November 23, 2007, 03:38:19 pm

Believe me, passengers do like spare parts. Just imagine how many pax would be leaving if you made a preflight announcement "dear ladies and gentlemen, due to a lack of spare parts our front passenger door won't participate in the flight today..."

DarthRobby · **Reply #14 on:** November 23, 2007, 04:14:37 pm

well yes, but they don't like spare parts flying at their head! :twisted:
