I think he's referring to the decreasing number of players in those two language groups as of late.
Makes me sad.

Is it possible to get a more expanded read, like, going back a few months also, with roughly the same day increments.

Turn Reports give total number of players and characters across all languages. Not a pretty picture. Over the last year, Cantr lost about 20% of its players.

2010.07.07
  Number of players: 1158
  Number of characters: 5677

The bad news is that the Cantr population has been in decline for a long time. The good news is that the upward bump around 2600-2700 might give us a clue as to how to reverse the trend.

I'm currently working a graph on Excel; at this point, all character and player counts are approximated.
Is it possible to get specifics and post them here? As in: #### characters and #### players on Day 2000, #### characters and #### players on Day 2100, etc. ?
Also: Can we get statistics going further back? Starting at Day 1 would be great, just to chart growth trends and whatnot.

I already have my numbers on a Google spreadsheet. You can add more data if you like.

How did we get more players around the 2600-2700? We should repeat whatever happened.

Turns out a porn chat site was redirecting to cantr's IP. Took the visitors a not-so-shockingly long time for them to eventually figure out that it wasn't one.
