Where is everyone?

Like the title says, where is everyone?

It seems like the player base shrank 10-15 people just recently.

Should we get the torches and pitchforks ready because too many players were stolen off to immortality?

WHY AREN'T YOU GUYS LOGGING ON?!!?


This is debate and coitus season, nerd.

Couple more burns like that and they're going to need to rename you Firekankman.

I don't think you're going to get much more else out of this thread, unfortunately. The reasons people stop playing (whether particulars or general trends) generally don't make for polite (or legal) discussion on the GDB.

I kinda expected this question to be about where, ICly, all characters are. Characters do seem to be very sequestered off into little corners a lot of the time, which I think is unfortunate.

oh my god. You guys. My heart.


I have something to say about this. I was asking Fathi this same thing yesterday, but the truth is I'm part of the problem.

I want to go do something that isn't here, and isn't Zalanthas. The dust and heat and scorched stones and red sky don't sound appealing. I think I sort've want to run off to another country and buy a brightly painted house-cart, with a shaggy old nag that I don't know how to feed or care for. Or go rent a cottage on the ocean for a month or two and get my feet in the surf and be with the wind and the salt. I want to destroy something beautiful. I want to breathe smoke.

Frustrated with things. Taking a break until I'm not.

Campaign season.

I like to play political characters in Arm but I don't have an energy or willpower to work 10 hours a day and then come home and roleplay work for entertainment.
All the world will be your enemy. When they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you; digger, listener, runner, Prince with the swift warning. Be cunning, and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed.

Right when I started playing a lot again, too.

With my majorly offpeak times, I tend to not see many people for long periods of time. But up until the last week, things were pretty solid.

I too have noticed a sudden and sharp "Eh, not today"

Masks are the Armageddon equivalent of Ed Hardy shirts.

I've been playing regularly, but I can tell you, my time available to play is going to shrink as we get closer and then into November/NaNoWriMo.

Goddamn right. Let's kill some people.
We were somewhere near the Shield Wall, on the edge of the Red Desert, when the drugs began to take hold...

Summer break is done, people are back at school and stuff.

Plus, we need to VOTE MORE because we're doing TERRIBLY!.

I've seen a shitload of newbs in game lately, so it's working. If only they'd all read at least the very basic docs ;_;

I second this. It certainly would help them quite a bit.

Also feel this. Political staffer/campaign in Canada here. Hope your candidate wins or you're at least employed afterward!
