Relative size of factions
-
Might not be anything. A player should be concerned with but I happened to notice that the legion is up to eleven people. Even in the server heyday that would have been HUGE. And in todays numbers it seems overbearing.
-
Neo and I counted twelve, but there are a handful that are inactive or just don't have the time to play right now. Neo and I counted fourteen in the Mage's Guild, two or three of which are pseudo-inactive.
I don't think the Legion should be singled out.
-
I only counted official members not novice or ap0licant.
-
A bunch of those players aren't really playing at the moment. Also, they're spread out across timezones - I rarely see more than 3 or 4 on at the same time. I certainly haven't noticed any situations or events where their numbers have overwhelmed any other faction.
And yes, the Mage's Guild is of a similar size.
-
It's not about the numbers rather what you do. They do help though espicially when everyone in your faction is being productive.

couple of times recently i've logged in to see three people -not- mage guild or legion.
kind of makes me a little restrained on starting conflict with both if it means i get to play with three and fight the other twelve players online.
these twp factions should be nudged toward conflict harder by their npc's IMO.

There is certainly conflict between these two factions. Yesterdays events are an attest to that. Worry not.
-
The conflict between the two factions might even be a contributing factor in the polarization that is occurring.

This. Certainly people see these two factions as large, thus giving them people with common goals to play with. Thus they make characters geared toward fitting in with these two factions so they have a niche. I even considered it myself recently, the idea of "making a character that fits with the current climate of the server." I cant say I blame people for doing it.

Before last night, I would say conflict between MG and Legion was rather limited - and might still be to individuals - so I can see where this is coming from.
Even so, not everyone gets a kick out of conflict, and I would personally attribute large numbers in the MG to the opposite - that largely it's not full of pig-headed politicians (unlike me). Mostly people were doing their own things - including working on Legion plots - until this recent plot gave the Guild PCs a unified purpose.
However, there's Giovanni on one side and Evander on the other, both of whom, I imagine, have been trying to get anyone who will listen to declare war on the other and their allies for a long time now :mrgreen: even if OOCly I would prefer to just let the MG remain a bouncy castle.
-
Many of the mage guild are players that are not geared towards intrigue but more towards adventure i am sure.
I have commented myself on the numbers we have managed to acquire in the MG already to other guild members, and the main thing that i see is that there are more ideas being thrown about which means that it is harder as a single character to keep up with all of what is going on for the faction.
This is probably a good thing, as the right hand doesnt have to understand or know about all of the left hands dealings…

I believe the RedHart needs moar.
-
and now CoG does too…
-
The Red Hart Errants barracks is full… We have three active Errants and three that have gone kapoof and I haven't seen them in weeks. I'd be all for more RH but we need the RH we have to start doing epic enough stuff to get promoted to open up more room. This of course includes me, who also needs to get off his butt and prove his Knightliness >_<
-
..any of these factions want Rav to join? :twisted:

<.<.>

Join DM Fachsun and enjoy of:

On DM factions, the Company of the Gear and Knights of the Red Hart could definitely use some more players filling the ranks. If you've questions about either, or want some help formulating an application shoot me a PM and I'll see what I can do.
