That's where my "tens of thousands of players" came from.  I got
there by multiplying a thousand or two players per "world" by 10+
servers.

I suppose this is an arbitrary (and possibly unfair) boundary, since
it really amounts to "Something on the order of Everquest, AC, or
DAoC".  Hmm.  I could probably be talked into "hundreds of players
per context" as a definition.  64 seems a bit small to count as
"massive" to me.
