Hi Deacondeacon, your original thread title was incorrect, so I have edited it.
Your original thread title: Why are fewer people using the UKC logbooks?
My new thread title: Why were fewer routes logged on UKC in 2012 than 2011?
There are more users actively using the UKC logbooks now than ever before, and this number is still steadily growing.
People actively using logbooks on UKC:
Dec 2011 - 16,529
Dec 2012 - 19,635
As to why there were less actual routes ticked last year than the year before, I'm not sure, but it could be the weather. There are more people adding their climbs, but the amount they have done has decreased.
Hope that's useful,
Jack
