...an unbelivable result that has just blown me away. However, I also find it encouraging that there is so much support for our Grand Ole Game.

Is everyone else encouraged by this?

Obviously most of that support has been hidden (should I say "under a bushel", to align with a recent theme on this board?? ;-) or maybe it's just that the time has now come for old players to get back into it? Our kids are now old enough to be taught how to play? Or is everyone sick of MMORPGs and CCGs and just want a sit-down, face-to-face experience?

Here's a discussion topic: what has changed (if anything), and how would you continue to market the thing from this point on?
