Probably every Phantasy Guild member
(near 1000) plus a great deal of games-
men on Q-Link. "Regular" users? I'd say
about 70% of the people I know online.

perhaps 20% most would be frustrated
with the time involved, or the actions
of other players, or would not have the
imagination needed with no preset mini
adventures to remain long

I think that about 60% minimum of our
members will subscribe to Habitat...
If there is plenty of activity there,
I think that about 60% of them will
play regularly...which, I believe
comes to 36% of the total membership..
HOWEVER, I'm notoriously optimistic
about things like this :D

Hmmm, "regular" Habitat Players....
That's difficult, but perhaps 20-30%
of the adults might take part on
occasion (regular), just to meet other
friends there.
I think the younger members would
enjoy it, but unless they have
carte blanche on the use of Q-Link,
I think they'd be restricted due to its
potential for addiction.
Not knowing what you mean by "regular"
I'm somewhat at a loss.

Percentage? Hard to figure..

Number-wise, you could probably pull
as much or more usage as the Casino
does. (2,000-3,000 hours/night.)

I can't give it in a percentage. There
are thousands of people out there who
lurk around in message boards and are
never seen by anyone.
I'd guess half or three-fourths of the
people who frequent PC. More than in
Casino.

I'd say a very high percentage, perhaps
70-80%. (This would probably depend on
the cost of the disk when it is released
and could be reduced about 5% from when
plus time was 6 cents/min.)

THis is a tough call..
I would guess, about 30% of the REGULAR
Q-Link avarage users will join and use
Habitat regularly. I woul have to add
that if the features I have suggested
were added I think 100% of the
Role Playing Gamers would join and use
Habitat regularly.

Initial usage would be very high, but
unless there were a way to maintain
interest, I feel it would taper off.
As a percentage, I'd be hard pressed
to make an estimate, but the CASINO
data might be a good indicator.

'habitat' should be promoted just
like people connection... its
nothing more than an on-line social
club...
.
for god sakes ... lets get some people
in there and maybe you might get a
hint of what direction that
'habitat' should go in...
.
I think that habitat has enough
attraction on its owin just as a
social club <game> people
connection does just fine...
.
people will love to roam around and
chat!!! LETS GET SOME PEOPLE IN
HABITAT>>>> its time for BETA!!!!

ten to thirty percent, I think.
.
however, I think it is more probable
that you'll get a steady influx of first
time users that will play it for
several hours a day, a couple of days
a week, for a few weeks... then either
cut way back or stop using it entirely.
.
right now, finding out what all the
things do (and what your avatar does)
seems to be the most entertaining
thing. once you reach saturation on
that, it would take a lot of interest
to get people to continue playing.

Figures published by one of the
creators of AD&D indicate that around
90% of the regular role playing gamers
are males between the ages of 17 and
25. I would expect that over half
in this bracket would spend as much
time in Habitat as they could afford,
excepting those already heavily
engaged in other online activities.

The members that frequent the bar and
engage in the role playing there would
definitely participate in Habitat..
the other rooms cater to different
types of people..a bit les creative.

I think at least 1/3 of the members
that I'm in contact with..and ALL of
the bar regulars.

Overall..around ONE THIRD...
