PCU counts are definitely down on Tranquality (according to eve-offline), we've dipped to 2011 levels, I would expect that count to spike a bit around the next expansion as it usually does, it already appears to be trending back upwards. New eggs also seem to be back to trending upwards. Historically PCU is usually down for the few months leading up to an expansion. The Chinese server Serenity on the other hand has seen PCU counts trending steadily upwards since the beginning of the year, and their subs definitely count.
You could draw the conclusion the low PCU count on Tranq means overall subs have also been down, which could potentially affect voting turnout.
Of course only CCP knows for sure, but I would suspect that if sub numbers are down significantly, no one at CCP is going to be rushing to publish that info given the amount of other bad news they have had to deal with recently.
The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'Hodor'. |

Without having the actual sub numbers you can conclude just about anything up to and including aliens.

Actually, Doc, if you check CCPs financials, they don't. Remember that Serenity is operated by TianCity, not CCP. That's why it's tracked separately. CCP does get income from it, but it's basically a licensing fee.
If I am not mistaken (I sure could be) CCP included Serenity subs in their total sub numbers previously published and that's why I mentioned them.
If not, those subs don't matter, as you say.

Yup, there's tinfoil clearly displayed as the first thing you see in that article.
