It used to be you could find 6-8 users in there late on a Friday or Saturday night.  It went away for awhile.  I'm not sure when it came back but after I did I never saw anyone in there anymore.

To make a "go" of Council Fire, I suspect we would need to do as dd has done... some general announcement as to when people plan to be in there.  Otherwise, folks pop in, pop out, never see anyone & eventually quit trying.

I enjoyed Council Fire a lot.  Lots of good information to be had there.
