total registered players

A count of players (registered) tanks ? At least we can show the magnitude of the game. Right now a new player can only assume how many players play by checking in game count and top 25 :/.

Good idea. I'd like to know how many accounts there are rather than tanks. I think that would better indicate the number of players since some players have many tanks.

I'd rather see the unique number of players that put in over 30 minutes of time per day. Those would be statistics that matter imo. Though I wouldn't mind seeing any of the counts.

tbh tho ... not sure if this is what you mean, or this is a spin off idea...

On the home page, "total accounts made: ###" ... "total tanks made: ####" so when people come to the site they can see how many individual players (accounts, even tho people do have more than 1) are playing and how many tanks have actually been created/played.

I see things like this on other game sites and even none game sites like speedtest.net for example.

Don't hate if already been mentioned or if this is what you mean ... Just throwing every idea that comes into my head out there, maybe 1 will help or trigger a bigger/better idea.

I like the idea :lb:

I think "Total Registered Players: ####" with the actual count being performed on accounts sounds good. This could just be put on the Registration page though, you could have the count of active tanks in the last ## minutes as something like "Tanks Active In The Pit: ##" on the home page.

Yup this is what I mean . See, counters seem old fashion and just immature. A registered total count that shows 150 players -1500 tanks seem more tangible. SW where you at .
