Private messages have been send in groups of four, with the exception being the people that are currently posting in here and do want to continue. Eight of the original twelve have received the message asking them to express whether they are leaving or staying, if enough people choose to stay then I will be able to continue our roleplay, if not then i'll be forced to archive it.
For now, to save myself some time. I'm witholding the creation of my IC post and waiting on the responses.
