TEAM UPDATES

 - Community Meet -

 

A couple of weeks ago we held our first community meeting in quite some time, lots of questions were asked by the community and many answers were given by the Admins and team management. If you were unable to attend the meeting or would like a refresher on the topics discussed, we have now posted the Meeting Minutes! Please visit the link below if you are interested in reading them.

 - Arts Contest -

As we mentioned in our previous update, we currently have an ongoing Community Team Battle of the Arts. The theme of our current arts contest is ‘The Carnevale’, a worldwide festival that celebrates elements from numerous cultures around the world.

 

If you are interested in participating, please head over to the post below to read the rules and requirements!

 - CT Events-

As springtime is quickly approaching, (Autumn for our southern friends), we are planning a fun event for the community to get together and play a beloved game of spleef! Alongside that, we are playing around with a treasure hunt idea for the chance to obtain some CT signed collectables. Stay tuned!

 

-Media Team-

As usual, the CT Media Team has a number of different projects going on at the moment, and more info will be released as it is ready. But in the meantime, please enjoy another collaboration video between the Community and Story Teams, this time going over Aedrex, The Collector.

when will an effort be made to get data on new player retention to be assessed and released 
lots of people join the server but player count seems to remain roughly the same, why? can retention data be used to figure out why people dont stay?

I don’t think any of my inquiries into this made it past my admin tenure. A plugin concept to help address this was passed through on a vote, but since the plugin wasn’t a pet project of any tech at the time, nobody cared to touch it. And it’s still an issue. 

 

All of the accept/deny ratio numbers are sub 3 figures. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that. Really not looking good.
