    A lot of new traffic from the Champions MMO website?

    Just noticed that the Champions forum has 42 people on it, 11 members and 41 guests. A number of people over at the MMO forums have said "Oh, I loved that game, I remember that!"

    Already driving potential business over here.

    Re: A lot of new traffic from the Champions MMO website?

    We've been very pleased so far at the increase in website traffic, and at the number of people on the COMMO boards talking about buying books and getting back into the game. That's just the sort of thing we're hoping for, and if all goes well it'll continue right up to the release of the MMO, and beyond.

    Never played Champions. Actually played a lot of Marvel over the years for Hero pen and paper. Did some Palladium stuff too. I ehar good things though and the MMO has me totally stoked. Ive been playing CoH for almost 2 1/2 years.

    You have my attention.

    Oh, and hi Jack! *wave*

    I've been helping my City of Heroes supergroup get a little familiar with the game system and have started pointing them over here to learn more.

    I'm hoping to get my husband and brother-in-law in it as well.

    Made me laugh a lot...

    "Must spread some rep around..."
    "Do it?" Dan, I'm not a Republic serial villain. Do you seriously think I'd explain my master-stroke if there remained the slightest chance of you affecting its outcome?

    I did it thirty-five minutes ago.

    Re: A lot of new traffic from the Champions MMO website?

    Oh yea, I'm one of those people who used to play Champions and now play City of Heroes waiting for a better Super MMO. I hope Cryptic fixes the sticky points in COH and make COMMO much better. And yes, the news of the MMO version has sort of tempted me to get back into the pen & paper game again also. But I may hold out for 6th edition so I can get all the books current at that time. So hurry up and get them done for me

    Drat I am being followed... and it was all Steve's fault that we are here... he had to go and say come to these forums to find out about the Hero System and Champions...

    Be careful what you wish for....


    And Steve I have a question:


    Have sales of Champions and Heroes material gone up since the announcement?
    Somewhere, some when, in this vast universe, some omniscient entity is laughing at me...

    I haven't gotten the latest sales information to see if there's a statistical jump (so to speak), but anecdotally we definitely seem to be attracting some new customers.

    323 guests right now. I never really paid too much attention, but that seems a bit high to me.
