**Where did all those folks, practically all at once, come from, anyway? That fairly sudden spike in population on a 9-year-old server was very unusual, and most of them were newbies to it, not returning veterans. Did P99 get come sort of major advertising face-time someplace last fall/winter?

I think it can largely be attributed to Pantheon hype. I was part of that wave. I had heard of p99 some time back but didn’t actually get involved until August 2018 as news of Pantheon continued to grow. Knowing that it would be years before Pantheon would even have a chance to come out I decided to revisit an old friend and I know many others did as well. I stayed until WoW Classic came out and stuck with that as my daily game until hitting max level where I can now just enjoy my scheduled raids. I now have some more time to allocate back to p99.
