SocialGamesObserver: To readers that do not know comunio, could you sketch the concept in a few sentences?
Maik: Comunio is a football online manager where several players can create and join their own small league. The goal of the game is to score best within the community. The season is simultaneous to the Bundesliga. The score is based on the real performances of the players and their teams. The winner is the one who scored best at the end of the season.
SGO: Would you say Comunio is a social game, a social network, or none of the two?
Maik: Comunio launched in 2000 and offers a social way of gaming. You play with friends or other people. Your success depends on the behavior of your competitors. You can bargain, buy and sell football players to other users. You can discuss with friends and meet thousands of other people in our forum. Comunio is turn-based, interactive and social.
SGO: How many users and how many seperate communites do you have on Comunio right now?
Maik: Hundreds and thousands of people play Comunio today. We offer our football online manager in ten countries and cover the best football leagues of the world.
SGO: How do you calculate a player’s transfer value?
Maik: We work with a complex algorithm, but basically: When a player is bought from the computer, part of the difference between bid and market value are added to the football player’s former market value. On the other side, if the computer places a football player on the exchange market an nobody buys the player, his market value will fall a little bit.
