I know for a fact I've interacted with some dead set noobs recently on CF, people who've never played a mud before. I understand that there's a lower percentage of people who would try MUDs nowdays than in our past, but there's also been a massive increase in the sheer numbers of online gamers too.

Also, we're not trying to compete with WoW for gaming dominace, we just want what... 200-300 new players? Surely there are people out there who would love CF if they knew about it. It's just a matter of finding them, and if we can identify some common trends among our current playerbase it will certainly make reaching those said gamers a lot easier.
