In the absence of Quarm and THJ I reckon the new TAKP TLP would have seen 500+
I think it's a very small subset of the emu community who get excited about "the most classic server" and also want to multibox. I would say generally those two interests are in opposition.

A single-box launch with a bit of promotion leading up to it, creating a discord for the community and reassuring players they can completely fix the shit TAKP client with zeal (it's amazing) might have been a healthy population regardless.

The devs said one of the goals was 'feeding new players' into the main TAKP server after the merge. Realistically how many new players are going to be there in the end? I kept saying "both" of the players here, but I think that's too optimistic. Not taking shots at the players and certainly not the devs, but the execution doesn't align with that goal. They put a lot of weight behind the preferences of the few people on the TAKP forums, with the expected result in my opinion.
