Good to hear from you again, gkrit!
It's actually not that hard to get a game going in my experience. Its true that things have died down quite a bit. There was a recent demigod sale coinciding with a tournament (that is still going on, sponsored by stardock) that brought some new folks to the game. The population is still quite low, though. So, people still do play and have fun.
I now play company of heroes online.
COH online is fun. Nice that they give you the SP campaign for free as well.
I think last time I played with you my profile name was "Lukas_A_79" now I just run away from this rage factory.
You could always play with those of us that aren't quite so rage filled, you know.
