realize for a second who you are replying to: Anthony has done as much as
anyone in the past six months to keep lugnet.castle going, in a word: complete
the Epic of Ikros, as well as begin on a new Epic. And he is continuing to do
inspiring work on a variety of levels. If anyone has the right to complain
about lack of participation, it is Anthony.
IOM was supposed to be the rebirth of CW and .castle, but it suffered from a
severe lack of preparation and time (heck, it even pulled .space and .mecha
ppl to .castle). The people involved were doing some big things at the time in
their personal lives. I understand that, I'm coming back from my summer long
hiatus because I didn't have ready internet access. I think about doing stuff
like that, but it's difficult considering job/married life/etc.
I think Anthony's post is meant not to complain and moan and groan, but to
offer a point from which people can rebuild. To brainstorm and come up with
something that truly can bring about a renaissance.
