First off, my apologies for mistakenly ascribing your question to one of [JK]'s answers.
Reading over the copy of the transcript, yours seemed to be the question that best fit the answer, both in context and time-line.
I've edited the transcript accordingly.
That being said, it's hard for me, having read, and re-read the transcript several times, to feel any differently than I do.
I guess it comes down to a person's perspective and any preconceptions they bring to the discussion.
I've tried to remain hopeful throughout zOMG!'s gradual diminishment over the last year.
I dutifully bought my Head Start Ticket, Amulet and Pets, and have plowed a buttload of G-Cash (for which I spent actual money, as opposed to doing offers, simply because of time, etc.), to do my bit towards keeping zOMG! viable, and while I admire and envy to some extent, those whose optimism remains intact, I'm afraid mine is exhausted.
I'll admit I wasn't there for the Meat, and am making my judgement based solely on the transcript I found in the Forum and recent history, but for me at least, it's hard to come to any conclusion other than zOMG! has been put into maintenance mode, and is extremely unlikely to ever come out.
Except in a body bag.
Sorry.
