Good call

PS- By the way, it'd be fascinating to know what the Blitz membership figures are over the past few years and see if they're growing or diminishing, in particular the figures for the CM area, are such figures available?

Technically yes, all data is available. It's in the database when people join, if they're active, what their last date of activity was, etc. But is it easily extractable? No. There is no tool built to extract that data, so it would have to be mined the old fashioned way, and with over 6000 folks registered at one time or another, it would be a lot of shovel work.

I wouldn't worry too much about it. The CM community at least is shrinking. TPG is the only CM membership I know of that's continuing to grow.

Along will come another game to catch the gamers eyes in awhile. Then the hobby will explode with whatever system catches it's for awhile before it too starts to decline. Single or small game series systems won't have a very long shelf life. Technology alone starts to eat at the dedicated gamer base as the computers leave the system behind.

Good Hunting.
