i personally think it's more than a playerbase issue. the combination of no allies, no gdi and short sets doesn't seem to stack for me and limits the freedom of play that (for comparison) primary enjoys.
i find myself either raping some little country really hard, or landtrading with the same few countries every set. it's getting stale.
i was very tempted to go out with a bang with some of the guys who topfeed me every set, but i decided they hadn't done too much to warrant it... so a quiet retirement. i don't expect to return here.
@jedioda - two sets and you'll be back in front of the t10 leaderboard mate, well deserved as well :) i think i've only finished outside the t10 five times since EE begun... not a bad legacy, especially where there's no GDI protection lol... but not really worth playing just to maintain. and if i don't care enough, i doubt anyone else will :D
