Dominions 3: popularity rising?

[CUnknown]

Is it just me, or is this site seeing a steady increase in traffic? How do we check that? I would be interested.

Take a look at the number of active games we have going right now, it's pretty amazing! This is not even including blitzes organized over IRC.

Is this number of active games unprecedented, or am I imagining things?

I know as far as myself personally, I am as enthusiastic about Dominions now as ever. I bought Sins of a Solar Empire and was really taken aback by the graphics for about a week. Now that the new Dominions patch is out, though, I realize that all I want to do is play Dominions. Sins seems like an excellent game, but I haven't given it much thought at all lately.

I count over 40 current multiplayer games that seem reasonably active. I don't recall ever seeing so many, for example, back in Dominions 2 days.
