Game Closing

Hey, Sing.
Given that I just put up a poll a couple days ago, this may come as a surprise, but I’ve decided to close up shop. I’ve loved being a part of this game, and I’ve had a lot of fun working on it as a mod, but it’s time to part ways.
It’s not that I don’t have the ideas or the time to keep this game going -- I had a lot of great things I wanted to do, and I was excited to bring in more of the metaplot. But when I sat down to start planning things out, I realized that I’m not as interested as I used to be, and I’m not having the fun I used to have. We’ve been slow and quiet for some time now, and I didn’t realize until I tried to get back into it that it had sapped my own enthusiasm.
If Sing were to survive, it would need both an invested playerbase and an invested mod. I’ve had a lot of fun with everyone who’s stuck around, but overall interest has been waning, and I’ve lost my drive along with it.
I did consider handing over the game, but I think another mod turnover would simply be more trouble than it’s worth at this point. The game has run its course, and I think it’s time to let it go.
If you’d like to continue threading or make any final posts, I’ll leave posts and comments open through the end of January. I’m going to focus my efforts on a new game, but one way another I hope to see you guys around somewhere else in the future. ♥
So long and thanks for all the fish.
