Ok I'm not sure what your damage is exactly.. but my point was never that Adrenaline WILL attract new players. Maybe go over my posts in this thread again. I don't know if it's going to help or not, I only said that it strikes me as a good idea as an ATTEMPT to do so.
so reviewing the thread you said that adrenaline rush was a great idea and may help restore some o f the player base. I disgreed and said that it was a lousy idea and removed the skill element of the game and would only appeal to gamblers. You said that removing skilled opponents was a huge advantage.PokerOrifice posted the nash hand charts
and i said that that showed that the game is reduced to a zero sum game so that recs will bust quickly as the regs will be playing unexploitable ranges and the regs then will lose out to rake. You keep pointing to adrenaline as something that could attract new players and i've shown you the reasons why those players won't leave other sites.
I'm all for trying other things too...
As for your graphs (and I honestly can't believe you've taken it anywhere near this far lol), The 6 month one appears to me to spike at about the point you say Adrenaline was released...
Adrenaline rush was released jan 8th or 2 months ago.so on a 6 month graph it will be the last 1/3 of the graph. The spike occurs in the first half of the graph. looking at the graph above the c in the .com text at the bottom there is a tiny blip upwards before continuing the downward slope that is likely to coincide with the launch of adrenaline rush as its in the right part of the graph. The downward decline in the graph after that shows that Adrealine has not attracted players to stay at Full tilt or attracted new players to try it.The graph certainly doesn't tally with your claims that full tilt traffic seems to have picked up in recent months.
