I was one of those who started playing when I first saw it by Paulsoaresjr and yes, I agree most new players leave again pretty quick, thoguh it actually throws a handful of new people into the game who stick around.

One thing some people are missing: while this is an increase in new players, haven always get a steady trickle of newbs from word of mouth. It's why the game's still alive.

I returned to the game shortly after the Paulsouresjr video and look how good that turned out for everyone!!!!!!!!!

Am I the only one who thinks people repeat each other if the answer is correct just for the reputation?

You're presuming people read every post made. I most certainly don't XD

Besides which: Techx was talking about people who come in through videos. I was talking about people who come in through other means. They're not actually the same reply.

It's better than making useless posts just for the postcount.

And they are two entirely different responses.

Who posts to raise postcount? Anyway, that's like I asked you:
"Why are you eating dirt when you can eat chocolate?"
You answered:
"It's better to eat dirt than to eat nothing."
Just don't copy other people's posts for the reputation and there you go.

There are usually a healthy handful that stick though so it's not a terrible thing.

one of my encounters of the new influx actually loves to play permadeath games. he already is even more careful/paranoid than a h&h player :D
