Tbh there is a difference between games and competitive games, what spring really does not have is competitive games during the daytime. No need for so much fuss and trolling.

Should it matter? It's not like I live on the moon. :roll:
If my post was baiting then you all bit on the hook and wasted a little bit of your lives arguing that everyone should play BADSD 12v12 because that's what's for dinner.

I appreciate the effort in trying to convince me I'm wrong, but the screenshot speaks for itself.

the only thing that ur picture shows is that u set games list beginning from hosts with least players to most players, so again, u fail much... bibim stats say everything.

u waste ur live arguing OVER AND OVER AGAIN that dsd is bad. just go and actually DO something about it.

12v12 DSD actaully is the cure to 8v8DSD. Poeple get bored really fast now and ask all the time to play smaller game which happened a lot. Thanks you TERA hostowner for increasing the power of your noob magnet ! :D

i've just sadly come to the conclusion that its impossible for me to get a decent game at certain times of the day'

whens that pic from; 6am or so for you? thats what it looks like for me at midnight... not enough north americans playing spring in general to stop the total number of players from valleying out every day around that time

Is it really necessary though for everyone to make a baaww thread here when they feel like playing something else for a moment?

And point me the post that says everyone should play 12v12 DSD :lol:

Tunnel vision much? because you have gotten so stuck up on the sorting in ascending order instead of descending, as if it was the eleventh commandment 'thou shalt sort descendingly'.
Although you cannot see the scroll bars, the screenshot is showing all the most populated games and only a few of the empty games - you have been making your case based on me distorting the image to push my opinion, which isn't the case. When smoth replied and said he saw 110 players on(which I doubt) that was a good four hours after I had posted.

I don't know what it is you want me to do about the way things are, I don't play DSD, apart from my own silent protest what should I do, create an ad campaign? Run for president? My intention was never to stop people from playing DSD, knorke was the one who first brought it up.

I'm not even saying I want to play anything else, I'm saying if there's no decent spring game going then where's more fun to be had. Fine flame me, what do I care, you're not going to change what I know to be the truth.

I would also say that with the growing game size(8v8 being the norm now), games take longer and lock up more players, meaning even when there are games going, you have to wait longer to join.

The first screenshot was taken 12:00 CEST on a Sunday.

oh, misunderstanding.
when you made the thread, server was being restarted because it was overloaded or something. That was also why forum/site was broken/slow and few games were up. I was refering to that not to the normal situation.

But since this was not about the server downtime...

Saying "Spring" is dying because there are no players is wrong.
There is always huge bawwbaww when spring is called a game instead of an engine. The engine seems to be quite alive and new content is made all the time.

Not going to judge the quality of that content but yeah, does not seem dead.

So for games, we all know there are not alot of players.
Still I usually find something *interessting to play, it is not as simple as logging into battle.net though.
*ba < 4v4, not zeroK (cant play)

Maybe BA is dying, I dont know. All other games never really came to live (yet?) so they cant die.
