OK so things have gone down the shitter quite hard recently. The area's best player quit on everyone (who claims personal reasons), and who was considered to be the second best player failed to finish top three over on the west coast, finishing behind an Arc who has to use 3B to get any damage. There's no hype (Arcana Heart has more mindshare with the hardcore set despite having a much smaller scene due to raw hype and the work of a couple of notable people), no support (local players are too busy fighting amongst themselves and leaving for other games to try to get any new players), and no drive (the level of play is the same as it was six months ago, and that is not a good trend).
Even with all that, the beat goes on and the game rolls on, because we don't know what else to do. So here it is.
Also lawl at DSP still not even acknowledging the game's existence and Zaeler not putting this thread up even though he's 'hype' about the game (maybe he remembered he just ran good and everyone else here sucks).
