I agree that aiming for the new player is definitely our major push. Not too many new players could participate in that process though, considering there are so few cards to give out. Of course there might be a few new players that want to jump in, but our ability to attract and retain new people is based on dynamics other than conflicts. Remember there are only 3000 cards and if even if every new player got one, that is still only 3000 players. My goal is many times that number.
I like how you think though Markus! Both points are great and well thought out! :)
