Increasing Playercount???

I have an idea for increasing the playercount here in Reborn.

I was originally introduced to the idea of “Free Graal”, or Reborn as I now know it, back aways while I was playing Official Graal, as a trial of course, on the server Unholy Nation. There I was approached by an individual, whom I can’t remember now, but they told me about Reborn and what was trying to be accomplished, and that is how I came to haunt these forms and servers.

So, what I’m proposing is what about having people take “field trips” of sorts to Official Graal, and essentially preach about Reborn. Much like the ranting acid trip stereotypical prophets, we could assemble in crowded places and preach to the masses, opening their eyes to what Official Graal has now become, and urging them to take the Red Pill or the Blue Pill, and to give us a chance here at reborn.

Along with that suggestion, I also believe that we should designate one or two servers as the “Official” hangouts in reborn, and attempt to populate those servers with as many numbers as we can. Because, if you put yourself in the mind of someone who is just coming from Official Graal, they are used to playercounts atleast in the hundreds, and to come to reborn and see A whole lot of servers, but nothing but 1 or 2 people on each of them, that will probably cause them to lose interest, because community is what was so enticing about Official Graal. So, if we designated one or two servers as “Official”, then whenever new people came to reborn, they would see one or two servers that have more than 3-4 people. It seems as though Bomber Arena would be a great bet, because i’ve seen more people on that at one time then any other server…

Well, those are my suggestions. Feel free to comment, tell me how stupid an idea this is, or whatever. :smiley:

an official and soley event server ?

even the remakes of classic playerworlds like G2K1 are incomplete because the rips were not 100%. we need to consolidate LATs and scripters and GFX makers to a few servers instead of dozens.

Doesn’t have to be solely event, what we need is a solid server with addicting mini-games/events. Based on what Beholder’s doing for free, we should just start paying him to make stuff…

I surprisingly agree with Dontar for once; even my own staff have their own server, what the shit?

Oddly enough I’m looking for a new job.
Anyone who wants to pay for my services, I’ll work relative to the quality/quantity of your price. I’m not a rich bitch, but I’m not a poor whore either.

I thought you encouraged them to have servers so you could harvest the levels…

Who do you think you are, Unicron?

Bomber Arena works because it is a fun mini-game that is pretty much complete. And it works. It is easy to join up and start playing some matches.

Unfortunately, I don’t know of any other ORIGINAL server that is complete enough to be advertised. The main problem with Reborn is that people come to make stuff, not play stuff.

You missed the ORIGINAL part. :stuck_out_tongue:

Stupid idea :smiley: , naw I suppose it has good intentions but out of what little respect I have left for P2P graal, if we come onto their server and steel their bread cause we d not have enough bread then they will come onto our server rightfully so and steel our bread and leave left over bread called Unholy bread, and GR doesn’t like Unholy bread we disslike unholy bread! :smiley:

It’s starting a war pretty much which we’ve maintained peace for awhile. I would assume by now people would open their own eyes up in some way shape or form. Bomber man is a good server, and it’s original :smiley: but yeah everybody should be able to have their own server and I’m all about having free graal but my main priority is for the future aka my game developing business involving GR. I suppose the new definition of playing graal for players is being able to develop their own level or world, at least for GR.

Dangerl3ss tried to propose an idea that we all have one playerworld for all main dev’s aka LAt’s scriptors etc… To take away the ability for a individual to host his or her own playerworld, I extremely disagree… Something I would agree with is having 1 official world (while other worlds will be able to be hosted publicly) that anybody who applies can get basic RC rights to, can form their own group and work on one sector of the world to develop on. Have basically GR staff as globals for this one server to maintain peace and everything else. I think GR should be known for the community aspect in developing than just having a good playerworld. Does this remind anybody of how Graal Classic started out, because I’m describing exactly how P2P graal originality started out and it worked before it went P2P. I’m willing to host such a server, GR staffers get remote access to, and application process is necessary for anybody interested in wanting RC rights to develop.

I remember 15 people PKing on Sentinel when it was just a single level.

30 or close to the other day on Graal the Adventure. For a good solid couple of hours.

I’ve noticed that both Lumina and G:TA have been increasing in online players as of lately. Maybe it’s because there’s active staffers that report whatever they make. Or is it just the timing? :slight_smile:

Perhaps timing. Fun content and staff. Easily you were put into the quests as its not to hard to figure 'em out, but the big 30 count on G: TA was because a fellow on there invited a ton of his friends on to try get hooked to graal again

Cool, well. What if we pick a date and a time were everone can join. We pick a server, then we hang out, PK, run events, quest, etc.

Off-topic:
Bomber Arena could be an mini-game/event hosted on Sentinel if that’s ever brought up again. They both follow the same theme, so why not?

It wouldn’t lag worse would it?

No.

It only lags when Joey downloads porn.

isnt Sentinel and Bomber Arena made by the same person, they would totally work together!

I always thought Sentinel would of been a perfect moderately sized playerworld.

Beholder made Sentinel, Scale2x, Gravity Bomb, UnixGraal, and Bomber Arena. He also made a big poopy this morning.
