Should BtSH call it quits?

[navarro951]

In light of the downtime that has happened i believe it is time to discuss the discontinuation of BtSH. I place the blame souly on myself, perhaps i could have done more to keep it interesting, but I enjoyed all of you who stuck it out with me to now. TCV, everyone, and Bean you guys are the greatest i have here and I appreciate your playing. Most likely i think this game will come to an end now, and i think it should.

Just to let you know I have posted in my interactive AAR to try and get people to check this out again. I'm not sure if it will work as interest in the AAR seems to be dwindling but I didn't want this to die without trying to help out some way. Good luck.

seems to be similar in the PBM's, at the begining they can drum up huge support and have tons of players, but eventually people just drop out or lose intreast until there is nothing left but just a few people.

Like I said in the OOC, I'd love to vote No, but I think we've lost it, to be honest. Lets cut our losses while it's still enjoyable, gather everything we've learned and use it in the future to create the best ever PBM ever ever.

i apprciate that very much and will tune into your AAR to support it.

I would vote no. You guys have worked too hard and too long to let this die. I think plenty of people like this. I think you guys should advertise more. Do more posting in all of the EB related forums, maybe that will get people intrested. It got me. I think its just people are busy and need to be reminded of the commitent they took when they sign up.

ok on second thought, abstain my vote.
I'd rather the PBM restart, than we chose another faction, since we already have a system in place, but failed to get enough members/enthusiasm and also did not manage to clarify what exactly happens (up till now I'm still not sure about some stuff mentioned in mini's reforms).
perhaps since the EB PBM field is saturated.
but restarting may also be rather monotonous (repeating the first few boring turns where nobody other than the consuls and the commander of Legio I takes the save and conquers everything adjacent to the roman starting territory). perhaps the new GM should play a roman savegame (in the case if we are to restart) up till around the end of the 1st punic war (or maybe before it); like a succession game, then at that moment we the save up and continue with the PBM.

Check out my Interactive AAR, I have a save at 240BC, Polybian barracks on the way and shedloads of cash. It's EB 1.2 H/M huge unit sizes. It sounds like exactly what you are asking for. http://files.filefront.com/Romani240.../fileinfo.html
I would definately be up for a replayed Romani EB PBM if 1.2 was used.

[navarro951]

so i have decided what will happen, I will be closing BtSH but not entirely. I will play out the last turns until our next congressional council by myself. I will then update everything getting us back up to speed and include one long consul report as to what went down during my time playing. Then i will get back in touch with all of you who are till frequents to The Guild, and we will do a quick bit of re recruiting in ALL eb forums and continue on. If that doesnt work, then I will end this crusade. So from here on out BtSH is closed until its "Grand Reopening"

[Cultured Drizzt fan]

sounds good, I egerly await our grand reveal!

[navarro951]

i do as well.

[Cultured Drizzt fan]

Now I am regretting letting my little secret out.... ohh well I am still worth something as a tribune of the plebs atleast, and with swiss gone Bean needs a new right hand man!

[everyone]

and we need some new opposition. I'm beginning to suspect all selfish/disloyal characters.

Caivs Avrelivs might die, and I might restart as Titvs...
