I was quite the pro when I read Steve's article a week ago (days after my game's release), but now I'm turning all amateur again as there aren't any sales coming in ;)

My questions are about trial-based registration methods. Do users register before their uses end or do they only register after their demo expires? And how long would it take to use a program 10 times?

you mean there aren't any sales coming from the board games published on Jesters website?

If you do a time-trial, you'll generally notice that people who register will do so right away or shortly before or after their time expires. Registrations during the middle of the trial will usually be much lower than at the extremes.

johnson, yes, I'm talking about the RedBlue thing.

Thanks Steve, I guess I'll be waiting for those that register at the end of their testing period now.
