I would suggest a big community in a small hall leads to interaction with each other.

A small community in a big hall can lead to a lack of momentum and the community itself can begin to fail.

Perhaps an example of that happening while we speak is the huge choice of games in the Arcade.

While the games themselves have a *great* potential to inspire competition and fun, there such a large array of choices, you can get lost within the large hall, leaving a lack of momentum.

Some of these games are awesome. A game like Robo Sockets is like a different version of Tetris.

Yum.

Perhaps one game could be selected and prizes like levelling up your rank be awarded after a month etc.

Guys wouldn't necessarily play for the prizes, but who doesn't like to compete against friends.

But at the moment, I would suggest the grand hall is too big.

If you would like someone to promote say, one game per month, for example, then you probably know who might do that...

No names need be mentioned.

There are features like Game of the Week and Game of the Month.

I'm not quite ready to endorse the Arcade across the site since I've had reports of errors and it's officially in beta.  I'm also hesitant on the future of Flash, which powers most of the arcade games.  Flash is already blocked by all the major browsers and support will end by the end of the year.  

In general, I agree that a big community in a small hall is a better way of encouraging interactions.
