No gamers are 100% (or 90%?) happy with the new Character Builder. Before and after its unveiling on November 16, there were many threats of dropping the Insider subscription and predictions that membership would plummet, if not immediately, then certainly as renewals came up in the months to come. Here we are, four months later. Let's look at the D&D Insider Membership trend to see how the dire prediction played out:  The red blob shows the CB release, note the underlying membership spike there, followed by nothing but a steady upward trend. Guess who IS 100% happy? Hasbro.

If i am not mistaken, Josh said they were given access to the Tools, but were never given membership that would transpire in those statistics.
*In the short-term, we will be temporarily be granting access to the online Character Builder to all beta participants.

What metric are you using to assess DnDinsider-ship? If you're using the number of members in the DnDinsiders group, your chart is flawed, as people aren't automatically removed from that group after they've stopped subscribing. Personally, I am still a member of the DnDinsiders group despite having left back in November.
If you look past the plot and the voice acting, Metroid: Other M was an okay game. Not a great game, but an adequate one.
Not using the Metroid item collect jingle though? That, was a mistake.

Can you still view the group? Other people have reported that they are in fact removed and can not view the group and it's not listed in their groups on their profile.

That graph is surprisingly smooth. What is the data?
