Probably some very stupid questions

These are probably dumb questions but I couldn't find the answer to them on #planetarion so I thought I'd ask here and ask all the little things bugging me all in one thread

Roughly how many people are there expected to be in the universe this coming round?

Exactly how many people will you have per galaxy?

In what round did PA have the biggest member base?

What colour are your undies?

I've got more questions but I'll save them for later on.

Re: Probably some very stupid questions


1) currently 1.6k, we're assuming 3k or so for the beginning of the round

2) based off current buddypack situations, as of yesterday it was 12-14 people per galaxy (up to 5 people from buddy backs, the rest randoms). We expect this to go down nearer tick start, as more people sign up and sort out buddy packs.

3) Round 4, people throw around numbers like 180k planets (and 10k players :P)

4) None, I just got up. Commando ftw

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it usually around 2k that sign up for the paid rounds at this stage? (this is ofc a good thing )

Thats what I meant, so hopefully we'll see a slightly bigger universe this time around

I'm hoping for 5k by the end of the round, and I really think that it may happen

Re: Probably some very stupid questions

I'm curious if there have been more signups than usual, this being a free round and stuff.

it looks like there will be more signups than usual by the start, but not a huge amount more than normal. I think though we will see growth through the round to a greater extent than we do normally as alliances will have space to add people.

very sad tbh

i didnt expect an explosion of planets but to me it looks not even more like 10% than before. if pa doesnt get a bigger planetbase with a free round how then ? :/

there would be like 3 rounds free in a row needed to get that - in my opinion.

i guess pa is doomed :/

I think it will be more than 10% more - if we include the accounts that have not activated yet we have about 2k people currently. This should increase by a reasonable amount before tick start, I think we just have to wait and see. And lets be honest the overall number of players isn't that important - what we need to do really is try try and increase the number of accounts that play an active role in the community.

yea you surely have a point there. the more planets with an active role the more fun is it. but i doubt the current core of planets suddenly change. ( i mean these who sign up every round and play but dont want to be connected with the rest )

the more planets join the game the higher is a chance that some of them will like pa - and take an active role in the community.
