Can't say I believed it until I saw it, but http://www.wireplay.co.uk can now be described as "back"

 

[Sar]

Wireplay is the original GSP in the UK.

 

[bigbb]

Yea I know, but that's days gone by. I may be blind but if you drew a marketing map of gsp's, I don't think you'll find there's much of a gap there for Wireplay anymore.

As Wij said, if aimed purely at kiddly winks it may get somewhere but following the crowd of mainstream gsp's such as BW, BY, Jolt and alike won't do them any favours, imo.

 

[Sar]

Well WP was always community focused, whereas the like of BW, Jolt etc were mainly about the games. That's the main difference that I see.

 

[Wij]

We're a community and we're certainly not very games focused

 

[Summo]

I haven't focused in years.

 

[Sar]

Both of which are very true...

 

[bigbb]

My case remains, I still reckon these ArenaTek thingmejiggers are going to make a right royal donkey up of Wireplay. Quite fun to watch it unfold though, as an observer I do have the blessing of naivety.
