The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Based on its context, what do you think the phrase in droves means in paragraph 2?

Once reading the context of the article, we can understand the term "in droves" as "in large quantities" or "many at the same time."

We are talking about the article called <em>"Reality is Broken: Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World,"</em> written by Jane McGonigal.

Paragraph 2 says: "They are abandoning it in droves-a few hours here, an entire weekend  there..."

That term helps convey the author's message and intended tone in that the author expresses in a colloquial way the number of people or gamers that abandon reality, the day to day common living, to enter the virtual reality of video games.

goblinko [34]
Public participation can be any process that directly engages the public in decision-making and gives full consideration to public input in making that decision. Public participation is a process, not a single event.

Explanation: Community disadvantage comes about as a result of the complex interplay between the characteristics of residents living in a community (e.g., unemployment, low income) and the effects of the social and environmental context within the community (e.g., weak social networks, relative lack of opportunities).
