Are we there yet?

[mdesjarl]

I feel like a kid in the backseat of a car asking my parents "are we there yet?" Reason being the time for 1/2 price packets OR the world to close has come. The powers that be have dragged this out long enough. We have certainly earned this especially compared to the other worlds that have already closed.

So I ask what does it take to close a world? A certain number of players left? An advanced political situation? Nobling Stagnation? Something else?


Lets examine "A certain number of players left"

you said 2010,September 28th, 01:52

Stage 1:

Once a world has roughly less than 1000 players, we run a survey to see if players would like half price coins/packets.

Ok, fine. BUT then why haven't we already been closed. Look at the following

Registrations closing on worlds 35-39 soon
Morthy 2011,January 26th 12:04

Enter World 35 Section
2,638 players, 192 tribes, 253,567 villages

Enter World 36 Section
864 players, 92 tribes, 213,303 villages

Enter World 37 Section
1,421 players, 132 tribes, 264,880 villages

Enter World 38 Section
1,279 players, 110 tribes, 167,559 villages

Enter World 39 Section
802 players, 74 tribes, 143,199 villages

Enter World 41 Section
1,059 players, 105 tribes, 206,826 villages

1. Of the following worlds closed 3 have player populations HIGHER then w41

2. We have three times been below the requisite 1000 player line. Once for nearly a three week stretch.

Next, lets look at the political situations of each of the following worlds

W35 - 2 main tribes, neither has made clear headway in nearly continuous fighting

W36 - About the same as w41 with Dvader with similar world domination

W37 - 3 large tribe with no clear domination of any 1 tribe

W38 - 1 Major tribe but only has 25% world dominance

W39 - 3 tribes nearly evenly split world domination

W41 - 1 tribe having a clear dominance over the world

So, looking at the maps it is clear that if we were to base it on an advanced political situation, w41 certainly meets the mark.

Finally, lets look at stagnation

AXES ENNOBLEMENTS

As you can see its been 16 straight weeks of less then 800 ennoblements for the #1 tribe

So W41 has...
A certain number of players left? Yes, less than 1k several times
An advanced political situation? Yes, just look at the maps
Nobling Stagnation? Yes, lets move on already

If its not any of the above what is it then? What can we do to close the world?

They close registration on worlds in the order they opened pretty much.

Got little to do with the world itself.

So I am closing this thread as it's not related to W41 PnP and there is not much the people of W41 could help in this situation as it's up to powers that be.

Posting on the forums is not really going to help your cause as it's impossible for the admins to read every single post in every single forum all the time therefore I would advise that one person sends in a support ticket with the evidence.

If you have any questions or queries then feel free to contact me via a PM and I will do my best to answer them.
