Game Closing

[singularitymods]

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.

Sing, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

I joined back in April and never thought I'd end up working as an app mod. I never thought I'd be seeing Sing close, either, but the time has come. We've become smaller and smaller, and I don't think that, as Larissa said, we could survive another turnover.

I adore all of you, every single one, current and past. I hope to play with you all again at some point ♥ and if not, then our time was fun!

Smooches, Tai

wonderful experience I'll never take for granted, and that includes everybody here ♥

I love you all to death; Sing was my first and, currently, last foray into DWRP, and it was a great way for me to come off a long roleplay hiatus. Thanks for an awesome experience, ridiculous modteam, and fantastic people.

dude aren't you about to get on a plane

but man you were the best listmod i ever could have asked for, thank you for being 100% quality the entire time you were here. go be awesome. ♥

Do you even realize how cliche my fucking life is? I am listening to Sting's Brand New Day album while on a long bus ride winding through the most beautiful parts of my city during a crisp mid-winter late afternoon before I expatriate for half a year and reading through everyone's farewell plurks.

But quick, while I am still feeling sappy, I loved modding with you and if the occasion should arise in the future for that to happen again, I would love to repeat the exercise. Please do not neglect your rainbow dosage in the interim.

how about i take extra doses of rainbow just for you, charlie. ♥

but seriously dude you are the fucking best and this comment is just more proof of it. if the chance does come up i would have you for a mod in a heartbeat.

While I admit I kind of saw this coming, it was still a fun time and I'm glad I joined. I really appreciate all the CR I had when both my guys were here and I'm glad for all the people I've met.

Thanks for all the hard work, Larissa and Mod Team. You guys were all fantastic.

While I was one of the people who dropped, I just wanted to say that I'm sad to see the game close. It was a great time and I really hope to play with you guys more in future.

Keep in touch, please. :c

Can't say I didn't see this coming, and I kind of already dropped months ago, but for what it's worth I had a good time while I was here. ♥ Hope to play with y'all again sometime.

It's been such a pleasure and an honor playing with everyone. It really has. Love you all.

If you don't have me on Plurk but want to keep in touch, folks, feel free to add empyrealdragon over there.
