Anybody else working on duels or should we move to tests or something?

I mean, I'm working on one with Tree but I'm going to be honest, I've been kind of neglecting it and everything else right now. I was actually kind of hoping for other people to be dueling in the meanwhile, but that isn't happening apparently.

I know for a fact Sat is working on something, though.

nope just sitting here.

Oh, so duels were happening.

People should probably mention this.

@Ammokkx Scar and I only did that yesterday and the day before

I haven't disappeared- just been inactive in everything. Having nothing to do all day left me in a writing rut for the whole of August- hopefully I'll get my groove back once I go to school tomorrow. I've been making some good progress on the Lite/Maisy duel, but it's still going to take until at least the end of the week to finish at the rate we're going.

Don't let it fall out guys, just hold in there!

I am feeling better, I am glad I took the break. I should be making a post soon.

Alright. I think it's time to end this.

I don't think I can do this RP anymore, I'm afraid. It's been one hell of a ride, almost two years since I suggested rebooting it. It's been one heck of a ride, going in gung-ho without a plan and shooting for the moon to see what I'd get. Along the way I improved, dealt with drama, fleshed out some broken systems and actually had a plot going. Things looked to be going well, but then the pacing issues hit. Interest seemed to dwindle from my players, and honestly from me as well. I think it's been obvious for a while that my writing became more uninspired the longer this went along, and I've always dreaded having to come up with the next post.

Honestly, the only thing that kept me going was the fact I was the only one who could give you guys what you wanted: A YGO RP that wouldn't die. Not like any of KOgaming's or Garland's failed attempts, or forced-into-being-the-GM-while-not-wanting-to like Scarifar and Silver had to endure. No, I wanted to be the one that started something and then saw it through to the end. I felt I owed you guys that much.

But... I can't do it. It's not been fun for a while now. I guess I could try to shift the blame to you guys, but there isn't much point. I had to do most duels, and they became a chore to write. Whenever I tried to push something forward, I couldn't rely on anyone but one or two people to actually take initiative and, most of all, we just had too many people. Exclusing my two GMpc's, there were 13 characters I had to account for at all times. Make sure everyone had something to do within the honestly small scale of an academy. In that sense, the setting was very ill-fit. I came up with diversions, but they wound up being more of a farce. Encouraging people to make their own fun also wasn't working and I noticed some cliques started forming- and not going to lie, I have my own clique.

So yes, there are a lot of factors to this decision. However, I'll still say "Thank you". Because even if this is a big decision which I've been pondering and discussing for a while now, I feel grateful that this project was fun for some. I know it's going to be a dissapointment to see it end like this, but I think that keeping this going would have made it a shell of what it once was. Maybe one day I'll give GMing another shot, with my own original concept, some fleshed out rules, less characters and a whole new setting. But this has been a great learning experience, so...

Thanks for playing @Eklispe, @1Charak2, @Scarifar, @Jangel13, @Satoshi Kyou, @vancexentan, @Tojin, @The Irish Tree, @LunarStandard and @Joshua Tamashii

Gonna miss this rp and playing Maisy with you guys, but it was definitely a blast. Too bad I never got to build Maisy's true final deck...

It's been a fun ride, man. Thanks for all you've done for us.

And another one bites the dust. Well, it's been fun, boys.

It was fun all. Sadly, all good things come to an end eventually.

S'aight m8, appreciate the effort you put in.

Honestly, keeping an RP running for as long as you did, especially a Yugioh RP, is quite the accomplishment. Plus, I have you to thank for introducing me to RPGuild. So thanks for everything. :)

@Ammokkx

It was fun thanks for all the time of enjoyment. All things end and you kept a yugioh rp going for more then a year that in itself is an achievement you should be proud of.

@Ammokkx you did your best and your best was awesome! Sorry that things didn't go the way you wanted to. But this is a learning process. We learned how to do things from you and who knows maybe one of us will take this knowledge and make another long lasting rp like this.
