I'd have to dig up one of my old harddrives from my old computer(s) and see if I can find it. Would be pretty epic if I could locate it, I agree. :P

the top was 7.000 and few mores that i could remember. reached in 2007/8, from 2005 the ppl playing age increased. In 2005 there was like 800 ppl online in the first weeks,then the community increased to 4000-6000 pll always online. The community started to decrease in the year 2008. When Esambles studios closed, elorating was closed was on his top at 4000-4500. Then always less people. The big cut was done when LOL and SC2 went online. I'm not sure, a lot of years passed, But possible the community get also 10.000. Not sure on it, i can well remeber in the 2006-8 there was like 7000-6000 always online. The chat where used to find games. I mean ( you joined in a chat and wrote 111 for 2v2 3v3, who wrote 111 was invited from the host). There was also another official site for Age that was closed. Age sanctuary was active and it was deserted when ESO closed, Viper left it, that's why u can see a lot of bugs in the old games or you dowland it and the file doesn't exsist @DaRkNiTe1698 if my english suck translate r4go's english in normal english :D

Based on my own subjective experience in recent months, number seem to be increasing, I just feel for those who are PR30+

In my experience once you get beyond major its impossible to find games that are fun to play but then you get rusty and can play with other captains and majors again except then youre disgustingly aware of how shitty you are which is extremely depressing.

So just dont try to get good at the game, its not worth it.

In my experience team skips all the steps above and throws you right into a depression without giving you a second chance.
