Our first ad banner goes up Monday, the next one will go
up next Thursday and the final one will go up next Saturday.

They'll all run for a month so things should pick up over
the next month or so and hopefully we get a good core group
of new players that stick around for a long time.

Just remember they're newbies...nothing turns off a newbie
more than logging into a game and getting killed before they
even figure out what the MUD's all about. They get killed,
immediately try to log back on, see that it's perma-death,
they move on, pissed off.

Whereas, if they log on, someone interacts with them and
kinda shows them the ropes, they figure out how things work,
they eventually die as all newbies do, they log on and create
a new character because at least they know what the game's
all about and if they like what they saw they'll stick around.
