are SD keeping track of the growth of ET?
It seems to me that there were ~250 servers running at the end of last week and I note a comment by someone in IRC that there are currently ~550 servers in the browse list.
Now I haven’t verified those figures but it seems that it might be interesting to see how the supply/demand for servers progresses.
I can only assume that as SD has wages to pay and that someone is screaming DOH! in your sales office. Of course, this last observation is none of my business.
IMO, extend the game, use the current infrastructure as ‘beta-testing’ and charge for the game. There has to be a margin in there somewhere.
If this is all a marketing exercise - I think you’ve cracked it.
