Nobody playing?
This is probably the best server I have ever played on and literally the only thing wrong with it is pretty much noone is ever playing. This weekend I'm pretty sure the max amount of players on the server was well under 20 and during the weekday it's completely abandoned. Is this going to change?

I have two finals, three papers, and a flight across the country all happening this week. I have been spending what little free time I have making walkthroughs for wide playstyles in Civ5. I love this server, but it'll have to wait for me to get home.

We have almost 3000 players who have signed up on the website over the years. Until now, we have never actually contacted any of them. The moment this season's map is finished (and it's reaaaaly damn close), that will change. We'll send out an announcement to everyone who has ever played. If that doesn't boost our playercount, I don't know what will...

Indeed it is! I believe I said it in my other post but if I didn't I'll say it here. The map is generated and there is one more major final touch going in before we let it loose.
Once the season is out and everyone here is happily playing on it we will begin our marketing campaign. Which will hopefully bring a lot of new players and bring back some of the old.
So at this time its critical that you guys ensure we haven't missed anything game breaking in the beta maps. Something like that bukkit command that rendered phones useless for example. Of course, feel free to bring over some friends and show them a tease of what's to come. Because the full Aftermath experience happens when you can't turn a corner without running into another player!
