Player distribution [Rant?]

[Unseelie]

There's 200 players. There's 160 or so systems.
Player saturation would be a very bad thing for any sort of RP, as you'd get, at most, 2 or three people in a system. Yes, this means there are systems that, at any time, are 'wasted'. and I'm sort of against adding new systems, as it increases the problem....if it is a problem.

I think its just a symptom of the playerbase being less than entirely into the whole 'rp' thing..which, yes, is a problem. I'd not DM for such a group, nor would I want to p&p in it...but as to whether there's any way to fix that, I'm going to say likely not. New York -is- the center (which we could change by linking Gallia to Sigma and the lower Omicrons, which would make the map more of a 3d shape. Alaska's linked to Omicrons..why not Salisbury or Chester?) and people do start right next to it.
