86% - don't die
13% - die legally
1% - die to ganks.
For the purpose of those stats, what defines a 'newbie'? Are we talking 30-day trial accounts or 1-3 month active subscribers? I have to agree with the point Nexus Day made that without any frame of reference these numbers really don't mean anything.

Sorry, I missed that. In any event, my point still stands: Are these 15-day trial accounts or xx-day trial + 15-day active accounts?

Black Pedro wrote:The stats that CCP Rise released are incomplete, but CCP has all the data. I am sure they also looked at 30 days or 90 days, trial and already subscribed, and did a similar analysis as there is no reason why they couldn't. I guess one could suggest Rise is cherry picking the numbers and that the picture is totally different if you look at a 90-day window say, but why would he do that?
Perhaps, but it's definitely being cherry-picked. I watched all of the presentations and the vast majority featured a lot more information and the dev specifically pointed out aspects of the data they weren't happy with. This really isn't any different than the scant information CCP Rise present on Battleships and Battlecruisers and how they were "ok".
Lies, damned lies and statistics folks.

- a starting area that is one system,
- all newbies go there
- obvious count down timer to 12 hours
- limitless newbie ships
- no security
- teleport them to regular starting area when team is up.
Essentially, newbies could fight other newbies in a free for all if they wished, jump right in and get a fell for combat.
I like the concept - but rather than a single starting system, what about newbie "dojos" that are featured in the starter systems? These could be warble beacons which are restricted to trial accounts and frigates. There would be no CONCORD and no podding.

Pretty sure that's what we're doing.

Don't forget the ones trying to sell snowshoes to newbies.
