"He lives!"
Yep. I suck. Been over a month since I've done anything on the site. I have peeked in a few times to make sure things haven't blown up, but otherwise I've been avoiding things. That's the sad truth of it. Real Life's been busy, but it's not like I haven't had time. I've just been choosing to do other things. My free time has been my own and I've been enjoying it. And I think that's where I'm at right now. And I'm sorry.
I've now spent over 9 years working on GoS. It's become my baby and I love what it's become. I love the community you've all made around it. I'm NOT walking away from it. But I need a break. I have ideas for other projects, but can't bring myself to do those while ignoring this one. So I need to get things in order first.
Here's my plan:
1. Finish V18. I'm not leaving things in a half finished state. Will try to complete most of the changes I had planned. At this rate, since there are LB changes that will need tested anyways, I'm going to let the test site play out. That's my deadline.
2. Launch V18. The Age will go forward as planned. Not sure how much I will play, but it'll be open for all who have been waiting so patiently for it. I'll be around making sure things don't explode and available to fix problems, but that'll probably be about it.
3. After V18 is done, I'll relaunch the site pretty much as is for any who want to play another age. And I'll continue to do so as long as there's interest. Forums will remain open as well, so hopefully the awesome RP going on will continue as well.
4. There ARE still plans I have for the game. I haven't given up on them. But I'm not going to make any commitments on when they will happen.
I have to apologies for this, but it's what I feel needs to happen. I love this game and am grateful the support of this awesome community. I hope this continues to be a place for friends to come together and have fun. You guys have been what have made this game fun and worth playing.
This is not the end. Just a turn of the Wheel.
Go Team!
