Sodom recruiting! (Closed!)

[barracuda546]

1/15th-20th or so of the H&H active population lives in Sodom.

Nice statistic; did ya pull it out off your butt?

No he didnt. Sodom has 70,80 people so he is right.

How do we know Sodom has 70-80 active people? 72 plots does not equal 72 active people inhabitating them. For all we know they haven't found any new recruits (this is an extreme, but you really can't hypothesize the population of a city).

Also, how do we know the active population of the game is 1050-1400?

Well, yes, it was an estimate.

Since someone said there were some 36 players in the NEW city of Sodom, thus filling those plots, we can assume that the 1st city of Sodom has the same amount +- because they have an identical design.

That'd be 72.

Since there are around 350 players +- always online, we could say that Sodom is at the very least 1/4th of the world, but that wouldn't be correct for obvious reasons.

We could assume that the active playerbase is some 1000-1500 players, which, is also an estimate, and I mean active as in plays at least once a day. So 1/13th - 1/20th of the world population is what I believe Sodom's portion of the world population is.

World population= 6 697 000 000

At best, Sodom would be a country in the real world with a population of 400 000 000, which would mean, Sodom is the USA+Mexico combined, in population.

Now I'm really interested in how many people live in AD...

AD has always had open recruitment and has more of a population than Sodom. Sodom has open recruiting now because of this fact alone (my belief).

Remember, Sodom was too paranoid to let people join before, (let alone even come inside Sodom except for for dignitary tours) how can you compete if you don't grow? So one must ask why the change in policy?

I also do believe for the sake of creativity, expanding Sodom adds more purpose as well for something to do for people before the next world. The paranoia still is present and for good reason, and they are keeping all new recruits at arms length in a separate quad.

Nothing wrong with competition though because its needed.

Again, good luck Sodom.

Numbers & statistics plox.

We are not recruiting anymore for the moment. All available plots have been filled, so we will work on those now and see how things turn out. I might open the recruitment again once people quit or we see that they don't fit in. So far things are going great though, I guess we will post an updated screenshot of town at some point.
