Effective now, I won't be checking this board on a regular basis anymore, although I'll doubtless drop by from time to time. I have not played Cythera in years, and am generaly to busy developing (Or hacking) games to spend much time playing them.

This board and it's community have provided my with many fond memories and all of my account's karma, but nontheless the community is getting smaller and smaller. It's been ages since I've seen cache22 or Moonshadow around here... are you out there? The chrons are essentaly dead, and I have no desire to change that - what little time I have allocated for writing is going to my Travels of the Starfire chrons for CS. This does have something to do with the lack of a uniform future timeline for Cythera, I think.
All of this is subject to change, of course, if something really interesting happens.

It's been fun, but it's time for me to move on.

Adios. I really can't say I blame you. Nothing's been happening with Cythera (the game) in a long time. Gosh I wish Cythera was made to be plug-in-able (it's not a word, but you know what I mean). We probably would have had some good total conversion plugs by now, and it would have encouraged updates. Ah well. We'll be seeing you around.

Yes, but I must admit this is the first time I've looked at the board in months. I still have several chronicle ideas - I even do a little work on one, occasionally - but there's little incentive to put much effort into it any more. I hope I finish a few of my ideas off sometime, they'd make some good stories.

I do miss the sense of comraderie I used to have here. I wish there was a way to get back to that, but I don't see how.

Best wishes, Bryce, in whatever you decide to do.

Too bad. I don't go here, much myself. (ONLY because I lost my password), but it's sad that the Cythera discussion is dying, even more.

Ahh... the good 'ol days... *sighs*
Maybe we'll get in touch sometime, Bryce. I have the slight problem that I get all you newer members mixed up, but I remember you were good for the Cytheran board... *considers that this topic will likely be long gone before you check the boards again* hmm...

I wonder if Bryce has actually been checking this topic...
It's actually one of the most popular topics we've had in a while. Now there's irony for you.
