Lately there seems to be a lot of new games created, but the player making them isn't signing up. Why? I open a lot of games without joining them, and they soon disappear since people joins them, so I don't think it is a great problem. I create games for 3, 4, 5, 6 and sometimes 8 players since I think the new entries seek games with few opponents.
I started to do it since the number of players was constantly decreasing and the site was looking a dead place: And this started with the advent of the leagues since a lot of players headed straight for leagues and by-passed the main Blue Max page. I can tell you that in the last two months the number of players has gone up of a couple of tens. And I can tell you that the games that I create don't last long, and it can happen that I create even 20 games per day. For instance, some hours ago, in the late evening of 03/02/2011, I created 22 games: 8 four players (games 600643-600650), 6 five players (games 600651-600656), 6 six players (600657-600662), now you can check how long they will last.
