Search the threads and you'll see that all of the above is true.
It has nothing to do with people coming back to play after an update. Most people that stopped playing probably don't even know there was an update and they're not going to suddenly want to play again because SC added L12 collectors or L7 giants.
Think about each update. Aside from the clan wars update has there really been anything THAT interesting to get people that lost interest in the game to come back??
