Another throwaway stats post.<\/p>\n
To date, Three Moves Ahead has been listened to over 147,000 times across 76 episodes. The peak month was June’s 15,775 downloads after some very nice recommendations from people with more fans than we do. <\/p>\n
There are about 1000 iTunes subscribers – but only 69 reviews or ratings. So step up people. More people listen to the show through their browser than on a Zune.<\/p>\n
It’s interesting to track which shows are most popular. Episodes 2 and 3 have the most downloads, but that’s probably because that’s where people start when they want to listen. I doubt that is a reliable indicator of their popularity.<\/p>\n
The Top Ten Episodes So Far are:<\/p>\n
1. Episode 21 (Soren Johnson’s first appearance, the future of strategy games)
\n2. Episode 25 (World War 2 games)
\n3. Episode 29 (Getting started in strategy games)
\n4. Episode 11 (Tower Defense games)
\n5. Episode 15 (Paradox at E3 2009)
\n6. Episode 9 (Brad Wardell, Demigod, some Elemental)
\n7. Episode 41 (Solium Infernum)
\n8. Episode 28 (Naval combat)
\n9. Episode 6 (Demigod episode)
\n10. Episode 31 (Majesty 2)<\/p>\n
In general, listeners are more likely to stumble upon our show when it is dedicated to a particular game. This is because there is a good chance that fans of the show and the game will link it on a community board. I like our theme shows because we get to cover a lot of different games and how they are distinct, but we haven’t done one in a while.<\/p>\n
