What can we do? (in General)

Our player base is down to 160 ... -_-

Something needs to be done or within the next year I don't think there's going to be a cb.

(maybe work on the tutorial *cough cough*)?

There have been so many suggestions for how to change this game to make it more enjoyable to a larger group of people.

Unfortunately most of the suggestions would also make the game less enjoyable for the 160 people who stick with it.

The sure-fire method is to throw 20 grand at it and revamp the game with optional, colorful graphics. Who wants to donate?

I feel that the most notable thing that CB is missing is pretty graphics. To me, graphics don't make a game good, the gameplay and mechanics do. But they do help.

When I first quit, back when cb1 was live, I quit because I wanted a game that looked nicer. I came back because I wanted a game that was fun to play and had a good community, regardless of how it looked. I feel that lots of people follow the same idea for leaving, but they don't come back.

To me, the UI seems... well... old. Maybe we just need a UI overhaul. Part of what I like about CB is that it's entirely text based, but remains cool. It can certainly stay text based and still be pretty looking and attract people. Is anyone proficient in graphics design, Photoshop or an applicable language and willing to donate time/work?

Do like all crowd pulling games. Just. Add. Bewbs.

Only in the adverts!

Then laugh as New Player Chat and Forum is filled with;

"Hey where are the boobs!"

We can have as the first line of the tutorial:
