If nothing changed, I would shrug, and go on with life. If there were any
significant changes in design or policy, I'd probably regress to RTL, and
wait for some AFOL with the time and resources to start up LUANET (or
something). If there were significant changes to how Lugnet worked, I don't
think it would be too long before something came up to fill the niche...
we're *used* to this quality of interaction now.
But I also think that LEGO would be *nuts* to buy Lugnet. I can only think
of two reasons:
1: They want to shut it down, or
2: Todd & Suz are unable to run it anymore, and LEGO comes in as a white knight.
I can't see anything in between as being worth LEGO's while - and I don't
think they're at either extreme.
