Really fun video. Getting a consistent group together is probably the hardest part of running a game. If you can enjoy a game with even as few as one or two players, that can work well.
I use a few tricks to keep groups going:
Have six full-time players.
Have two “on call” players – these are players who are interested but might not be able to commit regularly and are willing to jump in when a spot is open.
Run with as few as four. This means it takes five people cancelling before you can’t run a game.
Run at a consistent time each week.
Run shorter games – I go for 3 hours.
That’s helped me keep multiple groups going for ten years with one group consistent for about 20 years.

I like six players, run with three, if you can’t make it someone runs your character. If three can’t make it everyone runs two characters.
