User blog:WikiPim/What a game

This game has had quite an effective ride over the past months. The developer(s) had an effective way of getting the game under the attention of the masses several times.

But the latest of that was clearly noticable at the wiki (see picture). I thought it was already amazing that this wiki got from 4.5K views to 22K views when i upped it during july month (from 150 to 500 pages, no exxageration here). But this, even tough i am not contributing to it anymore and only answering questions and blocking naughty users made my day today. 230.000 pageviews on september the 16th. You can see how little is edited tough but the level of quality seems so great already for many that they come here en mass and take in the info as if it was a sacred scripture of some kind.

It was featured on Kongregate. I saw it there. What massive effect that had on the amount of players is clear. That it also lead a huge flow of people to the wiki is what really struck me. It's clearly (with the contributions of many in small numbers, and some in much larger amounts, special thanks goes to the top 5 on this wiki's leaderboard! It needs to be said that ActiveUnique, ToxicCosmos, JonathanHuff and LaVillaStrangiato have done an outstanding job) a very good source of information from low to higher levels. Some parts are not up to date anymore due to several major updates, but still... it's a good source. And many are happy to read it and get a lot of extra info from it.

I am sure many like the easiness of the main page picture which ActiveUnique created in collaboration with me. He isn't as active either but has done quite a few great things with CSS.

I do hope that others will jump the bandwagon now. With this great an audience i am sure there will be new people willing to do what they can to make this wiki even better.
