Expanding the Player Pool
Posted: Thu Mar 29, 2012 9:11 am
Hi All
What can we do to expand the player base? I enjoy immensely playing with the usual veterans that haunt RSW but it would be nice to see new blood. A lot of new blood! We need to see games where there are more than 12 players for the additional politics and complexity of play. We need to see game sign up sheets fill quickly AND to be able to alter the game to offer all kinds of interesting variants. I try not to construct too many at present because we cannot fill them with the people available.
The present scoring of RSW on the Apex site doesn't seem to be attracting much attention. Word of mouth might help. I've brought in 4 players and invited old Starweb buddies to try it too. Everyone should let their other gamer buddies (from other games) know about these games.
Anyone else have some ideas?
