Hey guys, as you may recall, Cole was the only person who didn't get abducted when Brenda's distress call went out.

Cole sent out an omnicomm message two months ago in real time, but it will have only been a few minutes in-game, maybe a few hours.

I don't know the full details of how exactly this will work yet, but Cole's going to gather together, and then atttempt, to organize the cavalry in a rescue mission.

Also, Brainy's player, we can discuss how things'll go down in the comments below.

Sorry for the delay, folks, but villainship Plot is go!

Stacy's Call to Action

People can ask questions of Stacy there or thread with each other with their characters wondering wtf is going on.

How this plot will be handled is each individual villain player that has a miniplot will do their own signups (so that they can edit their lists on the main post). All of those signups will be linked here, however. Each villain player can decide how many they want to have in their miniplot and how long it will run, though for the sake of timeliness, we need those miniplots to all at least start this week.

Villain players can make up whatever they need to do the affected worlds, in terms of levels of technology and culture. There's a variety of solar systems in this star system, with a variety of worlds, colonies, and moons. Villain players can have their villains teaming up with other villains on one planet or set their villainy on a planet by themselves. If any villain players have any questions about what they can do in terms of setting, there is a space in the comments where they can ask them. There's also a space where they can link up to their signup pages so they can be added to the list.

The first order of business: Due to RL, both Mala and Anders have decided they don't have the time to mod, so they've stepped down. The mod team appreciates their help, even if it was short-term, as it's been very hard modding with such a small team.

The second order of business: The mods have been talking about issues at the game for a while, especially in re: to the slowness and general lack of interest in the game, other than a few scattered parties here and there, and we need to discuss the potential option of shutting the game down.

The problem with endgame is and has always been that to really wrap things up, whether we do it in the fall or whether we did it back when these discussions first started, that it would take a lot of effort, enthusiasm, and cooperation among the playerbase to pull off. Any form of endgame, whether a shortened one or a longer one, one back then, one now, or one later, would have required that. The interest just does not really seem to be there, and it's too much work for such a small mod team to invest in something if nothing is really going to be done with it.

We want to gather the opinions of the playerbase on it. If we do end the game, we are not running endgame early. Just as we said when the issue was first brought up, we do not have the manpower for it. It was always something we would have needed some momentum going into and a lot of players riled up over and willing to help with it, which was why we needed to see if the game could pick up momentum again. We would, however, be willing to provide all the game materials and what was intended so players have the option of museboxing those things with other players if they were so inclined.

Ultimately, what happens next is up to the playerbase and we really need you all to self-examine and figure out if you're interested in the game anymore.
