Good article, voted

Voted.
Interesting is that the 3 big parties loose about 15% but that UKRP (on 4) and PCP (5) are stable.
One new party is interesting too: John Bull with 36 members now on place 6 just before DI (7).
BTP is out of the top 10 now.
The Real Spamicans have increased membership by 800%
'Interesting is that the 3 big parties loose about 15% but that UKRP (on 4) and PCP (5) are stable.'
Admins are deleting deads, so its no surprise that the top 3 would be shedding weight at such a vast rate.
Good article stefan 😉
And i've got to agree with Wayne, the biggest parties are sure to have a larger base of low level players who will more than likely die. The slightly smaller parties are far more formed from a core of more active and long term members so it stands to reason that the biggest parties would drop off faster.
There is an argument to be made that new players are more likely to join one of the bigger parties since they are more visible and offer more clear pathways to involvement (and power? Does that exist here?)
Conversely many of the smaller parties are going extinct...
