Rejoice fellow podpilots (and CCP staff).
This might not be news to everyone, but still a fun fact.
Last night when logging in to the server at 19:00 EVE time, there were more than 50,000 players online!
For being a monday evening in the EU timezone, it was quite nice to see so much going on in our little sandbox galaxy.
I remeber the weekend we first hit the amazing 20k mark during primetime, it was stunning and something we all had been waiting for to happen.
From this perspective, I find the 50k mark on a monday evening pretty nice indeed.
cheers.

Not as true as you would think.

It was also Labour Day in Canada, not that I'd expect 'merkins to notice such things.

Hm - wait,
high play numbers.
Next big expansion coming up.
Forums busy.
In accordance with my analysis of the Prophecies of EVE as given unto us by several prophets on these very forums this can only mean one thing:
EVE is dying.

I'm curious, since canadian milk comes in bags, do you just use a straw?

You're joking - right?
There's always many 0.0 systems that are empty - large areas are low-pop and CCP just added several thousand systems.
Meanwhile Jita doesn't lag with < 1000 pilots.
If you want more systems because you dream of free unclaimed 0.0 where you can go and loot *safely* - forget it. Nearby alliances will claim new space right away - doesn't matter if they really have use for it or not. And the chokepoints will still be camped.
The closest you get to that is in WH space.

nah i am not joking, and btw, get some therapy for your aggro :)
when i started playing eve, the universe was MUCH emptier and it felt more realistic and much more atmospheric.
the amount of expansion (addition of drone regions, some systems for fw and wh systems) does not compensate the amount of new players that were introduced into the game since that time.

I actually did log in when I couldnt post...
Perhaps this is the secret to get people to play the game. Stop having fun forums.

small trivia: 80% of 0.0 is empty cuz it sucks.
