Haven't been in the game for days since (1) crazy busy, even more so than when we were full speed ahead on the game, and (2) it's a bit overwhelming with the IMs and homestreet visits, etc. — computer can barely keep up, but mostly (3) it's just too sad! But, each of those three are resolving themselves and I'll be online much more over the last few weeks.
I just keep reminding myself that as hard as this is for me, as a user, it is a hundred times harder for you. I have found it too sad to log in much myself, but I've been keeping an eye on people's updates, and the boards, and I'll be around for the Final EOTW, but I totally get not wanting to be around much. Hang in there. And if you're ever in Detroit, I owe you a bar full of drinks.
To the loading screen: Just STOP going backwards. I think ending this game without any warning is better than giving a warning and then getting the players to remember that this game is being unimagined every 3 seconds. This game is going haywire, I think I should just delete my account right now. (I know I would never be able to bring myself to do it, but still. STOP.)
I can't even log in for more than ten minutes without being really sad and leaving again. I will be back for the closing, but I don't think I'll be around much between now and then. It's just too much for me.
