Honestly, since you came up with out potential salvation in the form of a future sub, I haven't asked any good player. Or any player at all really.
I've been really out of it these past days, unexplicably tired. I literally came home from work, ate, and fell asleep where I sat. Then woke up just enough to drag myself to bed and continue to sleep in the place more appropiate for it. (I did work late, admittedly, but not
that late, so I really have no explanation.)
I will see what I can do now - late enough, I admit. Truth is though, the players I interacted with, and would love to ask to take over, well, they're mostly just gone. I'm talking guys like Calmon, Evilhomer, Velusion,... those are the people I had nice wars with, and would ask in a heartbeat. The current crop of strong players, like Executor, who's already with us, Calahan, this Isokron guy you mentioned... I heard their names but hadn't exchanged a single (written) word with them before. I can't very well go around PM'ing random people, now can I? That's what the looking for sub post is for. (Yes, I'll be updating that one in a minute.)
So, I'm off now to PM those few people I know that
are still around and updating the looking for a sub post.
(If the above sounds like a bunch of whining and self-pity, pay it no mind. It's probably due to me currently feeling quite inadequate as a game-admin, but I'm sure that'll pass in a minute and I'll be back to thinking I'm gods greatest gift to humanity in no time.
