Yes, but I wish they would work on the game some more and break on through to the other side!

Well you cant base it only on GLB1, if GLB2 and MB are doing well, even if GLB1 only brings in peanuts it's likely still worth keeping it around. I doubt the server space is that much of a savings if/when they are already keeping the other 2 going.

The only question is if it's interesting enough for you.


exactly.

It might be worth keeping around as far as server space but its getting more than that as guppy said. fan base has pretty much evaporated and the pro leagues show it.

Whatever fan base is left will probably get tired of all these lopsided games and more of them will just give up and stop playing. Was looking at a pro league the other day and the closest score was 76-6. not any fun when all you get is scores like this. also looked at some pro leagues from a different day and all the pro leagues the scores were blowout scores in at least half of the games in some leagues more than half.

I doubt it. Server cost goes down. User base, while only a fraction of what it was, seems to be close to some plateau. Which must be enough for this bitch to auto pilot for the most part.


You still have to pay. Electricity, employees, ect, ect, ect. Eventually what you spend into the business no longer is worth the amount you get back in return.... even IF that's a buck a week.

Well with the number of players this game has, the server is probably a Macbook Pro at this point. The only one ever doing anything here is DD. I'm pretty sure he works for beer.

Not sure there's one et cetra let alone three of um
