game future + discussion

[articletwelve]

Hey guys - Larissa/ou!Wash here. As I'm sure you've noticed, things have been pretty up in the air since the last mod post. Due to a number of factors including RL stress and burnout, the current mod team is unable to facilitate a turnover, and I offered to take over the reins in order to see what interest there still is in continuing the game.

Obviously, things have slowed down, but if there's interest, I'm willing to take point on keeping things going. Alex has offered to stay on as app mod, and Hiku's good to roll out the Hypatia plot within the next few days. I would like to find at least one other mod to help keep things going, if anyone has the time for it. As we've become a smaller game, I think we could manage with fewer mods for now, and expand further if necessary in the future.

So, tl;dr, if people still want it, the game'll keep rolling out with the plot as planned and go from there. If people still interested could comment for something of a headcount that'd be awesome, as well as any questions/comments/what have you.

Like Blue, I'm definitely interested in the plot but I'm not ready to promise to more. I'm not going to lie and say that the past few days of what I've seen as pretty much nothing from the game hasn't put me on edge. Like I said in the plot post, I'd rather us go out with a bang then trail off into nothing. I love the folks here, but it is a story-telling hobby too, and I'd rather give CT a distinct end to her story here at sing (whether disappearing/death/still deciding things).

tl;dr: yes plot, I'll get an answer to you about beyond that byyyyyyy Friday?

I understand that, believe me -- it's how I've felt about the game for some time now. I've gotten a large chunk of the metaplot from the mods, and I've been working on a plan to carry us past the Hypatia plot and into a more malleable setting overall. But yeah, I get not having too much faith. Right now, the plan I have is to put up an OOC post as soon as I've got the mod team sorted out for game-wide discussion about the way things are run and how players want it to be improved. I can't please everyone, obviously, but I'd like to get the playerbase more involved in how things work, because at the end of the day that's why we're all here.

(insert intelligent rvb joke here)

But aside from that, I'm just gonna put up a "comment if you're sticking around" thing to cover AC once I get things sorted on the backend (hopefully very soon!) and I'd love to have you stick around, but I understand if it doesn't work for you. ♥
