Marketing spin is fantastic nowadays. Currently there are ONLY 1800 players playing simultaneously at almost any given time. This means, that on average, they have roughl 250,000 unique people logging in per week. Take note that it doesn't mean they're GAINING 250,000 per week. It means they do NOT have 24million players, but only around 250k.

 

Also, ANY registered account EVER is counted as a "Player", and they NEVER look @ activity, only registration. Not to mention the fact that WoT is so BADLY unbalanced & Pay-To-Win it's rediculous. Friend of mine has dropped around $4000 into the game since it launched (he manages 5 stores in my area...go figure?) and he has a higher rating than me, but a lesser kill-ratio. Meaning, since he had the money to BUY tier-8 GOLD tanks & get into higher fights earlier than me he's roughly a YEAR ahead of me in XP.

 

I still beat him in 1v1 duels so it's "OK" i guess :P? Money does NOT equal skill ....just saying!

 

why are u showing your intelect and mathematics skills when u dont have it?

Last night during clan wars on european server 70k+ players, on Russian server 150k+, American server dont know, and on China server dont know ....

only in 1 day we overpassed your weekly calculation.... lol

and + this is not p2win game, need team cooperation to kill something (in most case), and most important need brain to learn what tanks have weak spots and skill to shoot them...

but i can understand these kids frustration..... brain, skills and team play thats too much for them in 1 shooter...

according to last WoT community age poll, result was 25+ yrs in more then 5k participated players... etc etc

Wargaming rules and thats fact!

looks like first favorite for  fail of the 2012 award.  1,05 coefficient that u will play this game 1-2 weeks and quit it.
